Do Hidden Tower discounts stack or expire?

I'm trying to save up for the more expensive items, but if the discounts expire, I might as well get something now. I also have two discounts, do they stack or am I just out of luck?

I found this online, and it matches what I remember about it: 

 "Every third Wednesday of the month there is 3% discount for users with accounts older than 60 months old. 
In 2014 a new random event was introduced to the site. If you are lucky enough to get it, you will receive 10% off your next purchase at the hidden tower. This will not stack with the 3% loyal user discount, and does not appear to expire until you use it.  "

 

I used the 10% one on the Grimoire of Affluence--it was already expensive, and I figured I'd never get it any cheaper, since you can't sell/trade that item.

Thanks, that's good to know. Do you know if the random events stack with each other, though? I've gotten two of the events so far, but I haven't bought anything from the tower yet.

The random events for the discount do NOT stack nor expire.  I have one I got about a year and a half ago and every time I visit the hidden tower it reminds me.  It will not stack on discount day :sad01_anim:and I believe, someone else can correct if I am wrong however, that even though you have received 2 REs, because you haven't used 1 yet, you forfeited 1, so to speak, and will only have one available.  For instance, poor me, I seem to have this "problem" with getting FFQs constantly.  I have to visit the fountain and paint a pet, before I complete the new quest or I will forfeit one of my fountain dips.  Meaning I cannot save them up then visit the fountain twice later on.  I have had to do this 3 times as I have gotten 6 FFQs:blink:.  I know, "oh, the problems."  lol

lol, what a problem to have. It's a shame, but thanks for the info.

Yeah that's totally a Neopets version of a first world problems meme, isn't it? :laugh:

Can you imagine if those discounts DID stack?! WOOHOO! I think it's a good thing that they don't, but I also think it's a shame that the half-price day discount over-rides random event ones. I guess I just want to have my cake and eat it too. :lmaosmiley:

Now that is a problem I wish I had! 15 years (off and on) on neo and I've never had a FFQ.

Actually it is kind of strange because, I too, was on and off of neo for approx 6 yrs and had never even HEARD of a FFQ until I read about them on here.  So of course, I had obviously never gotten one.  Then all of a sudden, I got one.  My first one was from a RE.  Then I got one from a boon refresh.  I don't remember if that was a RE or a cookie.  I know that I have gotten at least 2 from RE's and the rest from cookies.  So it could be 2/4 or 3/3.  But I know they weren't all from cookies.  My point, I went from never even hearing of them to getting 6 of them in about 2 yrs time.  The cookies are cheap now.  Buy a few and try your luck.
