This might be a shot in the dark, I'm not completely sure what happens 
when calling validate with the symbol following, but are you sure the 
second call to validate override the first? I think there should be only 
one custom validation method on a model that does all your custom 
validations.

Try removing the second validate and add both symbols to one validate as 
shown in this example:
class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base
  validate :expiration_date_cannot_be_in_the_past,
    :discount_cannot_be_greater_than_total_value

  def expiration_date_cannot_be_in_the_past
    errors.add(:expiration_date, "can't be in the past") if
      !expiration_date.blank? and expiration_date < Date.today
  end

  def discount_cannot_be_greater_than_total_value
    errors.add(:discount, "can't be greater than total value") if
      discount > total_value
  end
end
