I got an Origin discount code today, which is valid until the 1. November and only for US or Canadian customers.
They say it's a "surprise discount", which means you will get either a 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% or even a 100 % discount, but I guess you won't know until checkout.
If you're interested and really want to use this code, then leave a reply. I'm gonna check back in a couple of hours and pick a random winner.

Here is the legal mumbojumbo, which was included in the email:

10% - 40% off: Offer expires on November 1, 2011. Value of discount will be deducted from product list price at time of purchase. Valid only for new purchases of up to 5 games ("product") from the Origin store at www.origin.com. Excludes pre-orders, games released within 30 days of your purchase, virtual currency and Game Time codes. Cannot be combined with any other offer, gift card, rebate or other discount coupons. Valid only in U.S., Canada. Limit one offer per person. Products subject to availability. Customers are responsible for shipping, handling and applicable sales tax. Offer may not be substituted, exchanged, sold or redeemed for cash or other goods or services. Retailers, distributors and employees of Electronic Arts Inc. and their agencies/affiliates are not eligible. Void where prohibited, taxed or restricted by law.

100% off: Offer expires on November 1, 2011. Value of discount will be deducted from product list price at time of purchase. Valid only for new purchases of one game ("product") from the Origin store at www.origin.com. Excludes pre-orders, games released within 30 days of your purchase, virtual currency and Game Time codes. Cannot be combined with any other offer, gift card, rebate or other discount coupons. Valid only in U.S., Canada. Limit one offer per person. Product subject to availability. Customers are responsible for shipping, handling and applicable sales tax.

That's not particularly good logic. It's probably roughly a 50% chance to be a 10% discount, 25% chance to be a 20% discount, 15% chance to be a 30% discount, 9.9999999% chance to be a 40% discount, and a 0.0000001% chance to be a 100% discount.

And a warning: As stated in the original post, you won't know what discount you got until you've already bought the item(s).

This code will NOT work with any new games released in the past 30 days such as Battlefield 3.

Ok barrorab says he doesn't want to buy anything from Origin, but the code is for 40%.
So, if the other 3 are still interested, I'm just going to do another drawing and hand it to the next one.
Next one would be DeathSighT
