Obviously. LOL

I assumed that all bundle offers were void if the items in the bundle were not purchased together. It's the merchandiser in me. I want you to buy both together, and I'll give you incentive to do so -- but if you get to the cart and pull an item from the bundle, I'm not giving you the special offer. But that;'s just me.

Have you ever noticed the Amazon "buy together" offers? You save $0.02, if anything. It's a gimmick on Amazon -- but effective merchandising -- because the customer can't always do the math -- for my products which are priced whole numbers, even my most math challenged customer can add 24 + 16 to know that the $39.98 bundle deal is not much of a deal. But when the items are 22.79 and 39.94, and Amazon tries to get you to buy together for $62.75, they must know that you can't do the math - and they have the balls to say, "special bundle price of $62.75!"

This thread has piqued my interest in buy together!
