Coupon Notifications: Too soon, Too noticeable
-
At the moment I have the following message appearing on every article that I view on the site: "You have coupons worth $299.00, some or all of which will expire in 41 days. Click here to find out more." Not only will I not use this coupon (because I am not an employer, not because it is not a neat idea), but it is notifying me 41 days before it expires. Would it be possible to shorten the period of notifications to maybe 15 or 30 days? Or could you even add an option next to each coupon for whether their should be a notification for it or not.

Yeah - I'm tweaking this right now, both the timing and the placement. I should not be allowed to do UI work with less than 2 coffees in me.

What are the Terms of Use for the coupons? Can we sell them?
Best wishes, Hans

How you currently are doing the coupon notifications is perfect. I do not mind the notification in the Announcements pane on the left. Great Job Chris!
