I'd also consider looking at Dell Outlet, they generally have 20-35% (currently 35% today) off coupons on their laptops. But if you want to get an SkyLake XPS laptop, be prepared to refresh the page often, as they go OOS almost instantly. The much more in stock Skylake Inspiron 13" 7000 series 2in1 can be had for ~$500 with an i7, 1080p, 8GB, 256GB SSD. It's a massive step up from people coming from older laptops, but a step down when I used it (compared to the XPS).
Best bang for your buck is the Dell or Lenovo Outlet.
Dell just released a 35% off coupon but inventory is constantly replenished, you may have to refresh a bit to get a good deal on a loaded system. Let's all be prepared for ... is this system a good deal for $xxx new threads/posts.

If you're not in a hurry, I'd wait for a Dell Small Business Outlet coupon because:
Dell Latitude is their business class series instead of lower end consumer (Inspiron) line, great build quality, solid keyboard, usually 3 year on site warranty included. When these coupons are released you can usually find loaded Dell Latitude laptops for around $550 with free shipping. Edit Actually I think some Dell Latitude laptops may be included with the current coupon offer, you can read the full coupon details or would you like us to do that for you?
I just checked and found a decent cheaper laptop but I would
never buy it.
$429 - 25% coupon =
$321.75 assuming the coupon works on this specific model. I'm too lazy to copy/paste and check.
