I managed to save $113. Unfortunately, I had to ask for a supervisor and argue a little. Totally worth it though.
Thanks, Mai Tai.

You guys are welcomed - it's my pleasure!!! I'm glad I could save everyone some greenbacks, 'cause hey, this stuff can be expensive!!!
A note about the discount coupon code - to use it online, you will have to already be logged onto disneyshopping.com, which means that you have to set up an account with your name, shipping address, log-in i.d. and password, etc. If you are not logged on, I don't think the coupon code will work.
Also, the coupon code is good only for items that are in stock in the warehouse. For the drummer gods you will still be able to get the discount, since they allow you to go online and actually place their item number into your shopping cart. If you call the 1-800 number, they might not give you the discount because a.) The drummer gods are not currently stocked nor available for immediate shipment from their warehouse, b.) the coupon is supposed to be used online.
Good luck with your purchases!!!

Mai Tai,
You actually owe me a drink!
(Long
pause
while
you
inhale
an
incredulous
gasp)
As the price point on the tiki drummers plummeted again I rationalized that I could now get two (which I secretly wanted all along). So I now have no money for a drink so you'll have to buy me one (make it a Mai Tai, please!) 
Seriously, thanks though. I placed my THIRD order of the day on those drummers (first two orders were cancelled). If someone else comes up with a 30% off code... I... i...i might seriously need a drink to cope...

Ok, I'm a moron! I tried ordering using the coupon code three times and it didn't work. It was only then that I finally decided to read Mai Tai's post carefully. Once I heeded his note about logging on with my ID and password, it worked like a charm! Saved $35. Thanks Mai Tai.

Thanks, Mai Tai!
And while I'm at it, thanks, Tangaroa, for starting this thread...and Humuhumu too for posting the the dizhub link. (Can you say "Humuhumu too" really fast three times?)
I called back and got my order credited for 20% off plus free shipping. It took two tries; the first operator emphatically stated that they could not do that and referred me to fine print concerning the coupon code.
The women I got the second time I called was a different story; she agreed immediately and did not even ask for the coupon code. She asked where I'd heard of the practice of calling back to use the code and when I told her "tikicentral.com" she laughed and said "I guess I've been dealing with your friends all day." She seemed amused, but quite friendly.
I should have asked an employee number or something in case thay have perks for people who receive emailed positive consumer feedback.

Just got back from Disneyland, turned 43 there. Picked up a bunch of 50th anniversary/Shag merch, didn't notice any Tiki Room stuff per se though I did get the soundtrack CD which they burn on the spot from a catalogue of out of print LPs. "Pirates" was closed which was a bummer (so they can add a Johnny Depp robot). The Submarine was also closed because they're turning it into a "Finding Nemo" theme ride. They also said they changed some stuff at Haunted Maniosn, didn't notice any myself (no Eddie Murphy is all that matters.) We hit Tiki Room, Jungle Cruise, Haunted Mansion and Small World multiple times - best time to go is during a parade or fireworks show, when everyone stops and stares up at the sky and you can slip past 'em like the zombies in "Land of the Dead" (though I guess it's "Disneyland of the Dead").

I just called at was able to get the credit placed against my online order from this morning. She just laughed when she asked where I got the discount code, I assume she has been crediting back periodically all day.
I also got the free standard shipping when I ordered online this morning.
THANKS AGAIN!!

Thanks Mai Tai! That made a couple of drummers much easier on the wallet.

I've got the space all picked out for my two drummers. The only problem is waiting the two weeks for them to ship!

I heard from Kevin late yesterday -- he says the sales yesterday were "phenomenal," and that the tiki drummers were their #1 seller all day long. He said that both the shirt and the dress have been selling really well, too, and that some sizes will be selling out soon (and that some who had scoffed at the dress when Kevin initially pitched it are now very graciously eating some crow).
