12/09 Last week's Best Buy ad recap(HOT: Crucial 256mb PC2100 $25, RushHour2 dvd $17, Audio, PDAs, etc.)

[MillionaireNextDoor]

<< Best Buy only shows one Antec ATX Mid-tower case online here. Hopefully that is the right one. >>

Yep, looks like the one.

<< Command & Conquer $20

Isn't that game like 7 years old? >>

Oops, It's Command and Conquer: Yuri's Revenge Expansion.

<< Netgear 4 Port Broadband Router $69.99AR

anybody know which model this is? My friend needs one, and with the coupon, it would probably come to $60. >>

It's the Netgear RP114NA $90-$20mir=$70

<< I am assuming the DVD Drive here is either the Pine Technologies or the I/O Magic
how does this drive compare to the EPO Technologies from CrapUsa this week >>

It's from Utobia personally, I'd rather get a 16x pioneer dvdrom from newegg

<< Anybody have a heads up on the Gameboy ADvance games in the ad? Thanks. >>

Certainly.
Jackie Chan adventures $35
Frogger's Adventures $35
Donald Duck Advance $35
Spyro $35
Pacman collection $25

<< For the crucial ram, it shows 59 on the website now, I assume BB will lower the price this weekend and throw in the rebate as well, am I right? >>

Yes. It's the instant rebate that drops it to $35 out-the-door

<< Does anyone know if Best Buy will have any XBox games on sale? >>

None advertised.. :disgust:

<< MillionaireNextDoor, I have an HP scanner, I think 3300CSE or something like that. USB flatbed, new in box (missing UPC because of rebate). I'll be willing to sell it to you for cheap. I ended up with a spare because of these darn Hot Deals! >>

Shoot me an email! ceo_quan@execs.com

<< MillionaireNextDoor, can you move next door to me so that I can rob half your stash? LOL >>

No robbing hoodlums allowed

<< Just wondering what?s up with the 10% off coupon? I see a few people mention it, but I don?t see a thread about it. Is it from BBY as an email or one of those preferred customer things? Thanks. >>

It's one of those preferred customer things but the last day for these coupons is on Sunday 12/09, the first day of the ad. I think the only way to sign up for the mailing list is either to sign up for a free 30 day trial of msn at BBY or get a BBY credit card.

<< Just out of question, any car audio deals? >>

Pioneer CD Deck (DEH-1300) $120
JVC CD Deck (KDSX770) $160
Jensen CD/MP3 Deck (MP3510) $190
Koss 10disk CD changer (MS1050) $100
Rockford Fosgate Pair of 10" 200W Sub (2) (RFZ2410/RFZ2810) $80
Rockford Fosgate Pair of 12" 200W Sub (2) (RFZ2412/RFZ2812) $100

P.S.
I went shopping at my local BBY when it opened this morning for a couple of sticks of Crucial. There were more than 40 remaining. I went back a few minutes ago before closing to buy some dvds and all of their Crucial 256mb PC2100 DDR memory sticks are gone! AT effect :Q

<< my hands hurt.. I need a hot deal on a (edit) good (/edit) scanner.. >>



"Post it in the iwanna thread mothafreaka!" Just kidding , thanks a lot for typing all that out!

 

[Siamskunk]

Stopped by my local BB (San Carlos)................the guy said they didn't carry Crucial DDR, the only DDR they had was PNY and it was only 128mb for $59.99 :|

when I got back home, I tried ordering from BB.com and chose "Pick Up", surprisingly, it showed that I could pick these up at San Carlos

WTF is up with dat? They didn't actually carry these or they lied?

 

[MillionaireNextDoor]

They probably didn't know since BBY just started carrying these. They answered to the best of their knowledge. I think they "erred" instead of "lied". Employees are people too who make mistakes.

 

[Princeman]

Well I had to give this a try! Went to BB.com, and got one going to my neighborhood store. If there's a glitch, it get's returned, unopened. They charge a restocking fee?

 

[dc]

fyi, the command and conquer: yuri's revenge is a addon for command and conquer: red alert 2.
you need that to play.

 

[SiberianTiger]

nice quan...heh..

 

[MillionaireNextDoor]

heh.. thx, kev

 

[LoneShadow]

Damn, I bought the 256DDR Ram few days ago from crucial.com
used my amex blue, wonder if i can pricematch it from amex. is it possible to PM from amex for crucial.com to BB ? anyone have any idea ?

Thanks
LS

 

[CivilRightsLawyer]

g99d post. thanks!

 

[nealh]

I am getting the RAM this time....great price...

thanks

[Flaredair]

Damm, Rush Hour 2 was one funny movie. Especially like the part about the massage parlor in Hong Kong. Kinda reminds me of my visit to China in more ways than one....

BDP

 

[Princeman]

I also just ordered some of that PC133 128megs for $29.99, soon to be $18-8 mir = $10 as noted at top of thread. Will work in that $149 barebones cheapie from Fry's noted elsewhere. Ten bucks ain't bad, even though free after rebate is better. Thanks a Million, Millionaire!!

 

[dirtrat]

<< Gullpond, the digital research 16x cdrw is BTC branded. It has some sort of "burn proof" call smart links. >>



Just so you know this is not Guarenteed! It varies by lot and could be one of several brands. The one I bought a couple weeks ago was an IOmagic brand.

 

[MrMet]

Thnks for heads up!

 

[roc919]

Thanks for da post Millioniare! Crucial DDRAM 256MB for only $35 and even lower at $25 after rebate is swEEET! I dont even have a system that uses DDRAM but I'm gonna pick up a couple of these anyway....maybe I should think about upgrading that celery...

 

[nealh]

I went to BB today bought the RAM and tomorrow will go back for the pricematch...and hopefully for the rebate..but even at $35 this is a steal..it is Crucial DDR PC2100 RAM in there Crucial packaging
I got today to make sure I got 2 sticks..when I went in the shelf location was empty but it was in a box to be displayed...not sure how many sticks they had...
this was in Melbourne

 

[nealh]

I just saw a Buslink 241040 cdrw..I have seen these are rebadged Liteon....so $100 with 10% off for preferrred customer makes it $90..nice deal

BTW I picked up the Minitek DVD 2580.... for $79.99-10% off today as well..any problems with this DVD player

they also have the Minitek 2110 for $100 tomorrow...this $20 less than today's price..the only difference I could see is Karoke ...anything else

 

[SoulAssassin]

Any chance I can use the 10% off coupon on one of the monitors? The coupon says 'computer accessories' which is pretty broad, I'm thinking if I get the right person at the register I might be cool.

 

[Princeman]

Does it make any rebate difference if you pick up the memory shipped to the store today or tomorrow? Other than having to go back tomorrow for the price match?

 

[ieee]

thanks!

 

[astrochimp]

I was told that Best buy gets alot of returns on the mintek because like the apex, it cannot handle films with alot of action and it locks up.
Which is why it's so cheap.

 

[UF Jspec]

I ordered 2 Crucial PC2100 256MB. I chose the store pickup option and I am awaiting the confirmation e-mail.

Man I hope this works!

 

[BuckNaked]

Here is more info on the Crucial RAM on sale this weekend, I have the flyer and its a go...

128 MB PC133 SDRAM (CT16M64S4D) $29.99 - $12 IR - $8 MIR = $9.99
128 MB Notebook SODIMM (CT16M64S6W) $29.99 - $5 IR - $10 MIR = $14.99
256 MB DDR (PC2100) (CT3264Z265) $49.99 - $15 IR - $10 MIR = $24.99
256 MB PC133 SDRAM (CT32M64S4D) $49.99 - $15 IR - $10 MIR = $24.99
512 MB PC133 SDRAM (CT64M64S4D) $79.99 - $5 IR - $15 MIR = $59.99

Minimum 10 per store, Limit 1 MIR per Customer

The part numbers for the SDRAM don't have the last two numbers that indicate if this is CAS2 or CAS3 memory, but generally 75 on the end will indicate CAS3 and 7E will denote CAS2...

Dave

I forgot to add, when I went to BB yesterday to pickup a stick of the DDR, the first guy I talked to didn't know anything about carrying Crucial Memory, and I didn't see any on the pegboard... But then another employee walked by as I was asking about it and pointed out that it was in the drawer below the counter... This was at the Airport BB in Portland, OR....

 

[Mustanggt]

Oh so the ram is $49.99??
