Hi qwan0888,
Buy.com had the 256MB stick for $145.95 a few days ago as their DOD, and so they had free shipping. I called Staples, did not have any
problem pricematching it, and here comes the interesting part: when
I started saying the coupon numbers over the phone, I gave the guy
a $20 off $100 by mistake (I wanted to give him $25 off $100). When he told me it was a $20 off only, I said, OK here is a $25 off, and he
asked me if I wanted to keep the $20 off too! So, I got the stick
for $146 - $45 in coupons + taxes, for a total of $107 and change.
I would have gotten the same deal at buy.com, but would have had to
wait for the $30 rebate from Kingston - the price out of the door was
$137 or so.
So this exchange with the Staples CSR made me think -- if you're buying something for $145, and apply a $25 off $100, after that you're still over $100, so in theory you should be able to apply another $20 off $100 coupon! I'll test that theory next time.
