Go Daddy’s people are standing by via phone and Internet chat, but there’s a few things you aren't going to hear from GoDaddy’s finest.
WHO SAID DISCO(UNT) IS DEAD?
Okay, so the days of using 99 cent coupons to register HomemadeMiniPickles.com for your grandmother‘s secret recipe are over, but there are still coupons available and you should be taking advantage of them.
FRIENDS DON’T LET FRIENDS BUY DRUNK
In the old days when I went to college, we got drunk and ran across the campus naked. But now? You youngin’s are celebrating your inebriation by buying domain names.
Yeah, domain names like DeepFriedPixels and PronShd (both in dot com of course). If you don’t believe me, just read this story at Yahoo News.
Should you become the unintended victim of a night of Internet debauchery, don’t worry. You can get a refund!
RESURRECTING THE DEAD
Did you forget to renew your favorite domain? No worries, you can rise like a Phoenix and live again! The domain can be yours a second time at no extra cost for up to12 days 18 days after expiration. You can even grab it for several weeks after that by paying a $80 penalty or you can transfer it to another registrar at the receiving registrar's standard transfer-in price to avoid the $80 fee. See the GoDaddy help page for more details.

So if you’re hungover, got amnesia, or are just plain stupid and forgetful like me - don’t worry, GoDaddy’s got your back with an array of coupons, refunds, and second chances that are sure to keep your money-making, domain train, right on track.

- If you are a new account with a fresh credit card, you can get a single dot com for $2.99 (1st year price) when you register for 2 years or more by going here (select "Domain Deals"). Additional years at standard price.
- After that, get as many dot com's as you can using the codes PHD3 and REV10 by paying only $8.49 apiece. They’ll work multiple times for multiple domains. This is a better deal than the Discount Domain Club price of $8.29 (not including the ICANN fee of $0.18) that requires a $120 annual fee.
- There are some perks with the Discount Domain Club, like free Domain Auction membership, discounts on other TLD's, etc. If you decide to go for the DD Club purchase, use the coupon code DDCDS2015 and get 30% off (special thanks to Shane for the code).
- Got the winning bid at a GoDaddy auction? Using coupon code CJCRMN35 will get you 35% off on the renewal fee at the time of checkout.
