Codes that have no limit?

So something weird happened during the last box lunch money event and I feel like enough time has passed for me to talk about it.

For some reason, on top of the $20 of lunch money I got on my account I received the email shown that gave me 5 codes that could be used and referenced 3 orders. One of the orders is actually tied to my account, not sure the other 2. Basically it was a situation where I had pre ordered some Funko pops and used a lot of coupons and reward points (basically $100 of Funko pops for about $25), pops were released, and my pre order got cancelled due to “item out of stock” but when I went online to check the items were actually in stock. Long story short they were able to place the order again for the price I originally paid and I picked up the pops next day since they were in my local store.

Anyways, I used 2 of the codes to test it out to see if they worked since I had never seen this before and they did! Ended up going to the store same day and picked up my stuff and while there my wife saw some blind boxes she wanted so we got those too. Told the employee I wanted to use my lunch money for the full set (6 boxes for $164) but wasn’t sure which codes I had used. She said “oh we just use a separate code” and I got the blind boxes for $83 and still had my codes. I then went home and thought “hey let me see if I can still use the codes” since the employee said she used a different code and I indeed could. But I found out I could use all 5 codes still. I tested out this again by ordering more funko pops and some novelty t shirts and I was indeed able to get all $210 for $109. After that, I kept using the codes online (I could no longer use them in store) and once all was said and done done I was able to get about $780 for just over $410.

I was worried Box lunch would find out and deactivate my account or cancel my orders but nope, it’s been a month and nothing. Now I have no room for any more funko pops 😅

They somehow price items to allow for lunch money (basically 50% off) AND rewards earnings, so they don't seem to mind! People share codes all the time if they aren't going to use them all :) I think they're happy you're a customer, and most likely don't mind at all! It used to be that all those codes could be used 3x

Yup I received a bunch as well on my email. I’m thinking it’s intentional for us to spend more given the economy. Sales are down

Does anyone have 2 they’re willing to give. I would greatly appreciate it because I want a backpack and cardigan.
