lay off the prozac man, what??

 

[polotek147]

This is nice. I'm unclear about the OD price of the HD, is that 79.99 up front?

 

[MAYAN]

huh??

 

[Trainwreck]

nope eailer in the week you could get OD maxtor 40 gig online with pick up with the 20 off 75 than price match it with staples for 99.94-20 off 75 = 79.94 out the door

 

[Rmilton]

This sounds like a great deal.... but i'm really confused. The first part I could figure out, but what was that 2nd part?

 

[kei]

what you say?


edit: nm
needed to read it again to figure it out
doubt the PM to OD will fly

 

[CreveCoeur]

no office depot add in my paper for this week coming up?

 

[Trainwreck]

Search for the office depot deal that was going on earlier in the week you could get it for $79.99 out the door with no rebates

 

[Trainwreck]

added link to the OD deal see above

Where is the GC coming from?

 

[theshamu]

The BestBuy I shop always tells me that they price match after taking into consideration their rebates. So in this case, $129 - $30 rebate = $99, same as Staples. They can even say BB's price is better since you get $20 GC as well. So I know I would not get a price match.

BEST BUY rebate center po box 9300 calais ,ME

 

[Trainwreck]

Staples has it for 99.94 with no rebates out the door check the flyer ending today if you want it for $50 you must PM with BB today.

 

[lefort]

Where is there an add showing a $20 gc?

 

[Trainwreck]

there wasn't one it they both printed out when I bought it

 

[madalien]

Thanks, now this all seems to make sense and I will have to spend more money.

 

[Mustanggt]

I am also a little confused, will BB let you PM to staples $99.94?? as for anything to do with OD rebates i want no part of i still waiting on one from them. Or is the best deal going to staples and PM BB???

 

[mikecrof]

I apologize for this being OT, but does anyone know if the Soyo Dragon+ supports more than 2 drives in any RAID configuration (0 or 1)?

 

[Trainwreck]

PLEASE THIS DEAL FOR $25 WORKS ONLY IF YOU HAVE GOTTEN THE HD FROM OD ONLINE AND PICK UP AND PAY IN THE STORE THAN DID A PM WITH STAPLES BM FLYER

THE BEST BUY BM to staples BM price match deal works because staples has it for 99.99 straight with no rebates and than you get a BB $30 mfr rebate and a BB $20 GC rebate

$99.99 PM AT BB WITH STAPLES FLYER --30 MFR --20 GC =49.99 this is still a hot deal and no long wait OD rebates to deal with.this must be done today staples flyer ends today

 

[RadioactiveMagpies]

Does anyone know how many platters are on the ST0154000U retail?

 

[phreakyzen]

Ok I am in Northern VA and I am looking at the OD ad right now and the price for the Maxtor 40GB 7200 is $89.99 after $30 rebate. I do not know about the rest of the country but all you are saving by pricematching with OD is $10.

 

[Trainwreck]

Please someone post when they get the $50 deal that is easy it should work for everyone.

 

[Trainwreck]

phreak if you want the $50 deal PM to staples B&M FLYER they have it for 99.94 straight no rebates go today the flyer is good till the 2nd that's today

 

[The Dancing Peacock]

Ok so forgive me for not understanding this whole $25 thing, but it really isn't clear at all.

This is the way I understand it from the thread:

If I order from OD online using a coupon to pay in-store, then pricematch to 99 bucks from Staples bringing the price to 79.99. Then go BB and pricematch to get a $30 MIR and a $20 giftcard bringing it to 24.99? I would have to purchase one from OD and then get one from BB too using the OD receipt to pricematch? Best Buy will pricematch?

So can I still do this?
