Canon A620 $179.99 @ OfficeMax

Grab 'em while they're hot, cuz they're clearanced.

I had a $30 off $150 coupon and could not resist this deal. This is a superb full featured digicam for only $149+tax. Couldn't believe it. Only thing it doesn't have is image stabilization and a legitimate wide angle capability. Otherwise, this is a camera to keep.

I also got one (no coupon, though) and so far the only thing to complain about is this high pitched whine on the right side of the camera during "camcorder" recording mode.

Odd, but apparently quite frequent, given this uses SD memory and not a hard drive or tape.

not available for zip 95051

Can also try CompUSA. They are marked as clearance and priced at 249.99, but their flyer says 25% off clearance items.

Someone said item in store was specifically marked not with 25% off, but probably have to go to store and ask a salesman.

If not, just try and price match to Officemax.

Call their 800 number - 877-633-4236. They can tell if you if there are any stores near you that have them in stock.

I tried to order my online but rec'd same message that it was not available. I called their number and gave my zip code to a CSR. She told me the nearest store had 7 in stock and gave me the store number. I called ahead and they said they would hold one for me. When I showed up 4 hours later, I believe the others except for the floor sample had been purchased so good luck.

@Mac: That's because you called ahead. Isn't it NOT a good idea to call ahead?
None available near my zip too. Oh well.

I understand what you are saying but this was advertised in the Sunday paper so I didn't think it made any difference. Besides with gas prices as high as they are, I am increasingly reluctant to drive some place hoping they have something in stock unless it is nearby. The store I went to was probably 7 miles from my home.

I know every store in my area had at least 4.
Also, I know other stores won't price match clearance, but there is NOTHING in the advertising to indicate OMX is clearancing this camera, so you should be ok for a price match.

my local Office Max doesn't carry any cameras other than Kodak or HPs

This is still a great deal, though. If I hadn't already gotten an S3 I would spring for this.
