I used this on a site selling tickets and when they sold out, people with coupons still needed the ability to redeem their tickets. This plugin did the job and I had it working with a couple of minutes. There are 2 fields to fill in and one requires a link to a coupon input; I simply used the link to the cart. Works great. I will definitely use this again if the need arises.
Thanks for sharing your plugin!
