I was with dreamhost for a year or two and when I saw this deal I emailed dreamhost's sales team to see if they cold offer me any discount. I wasn't asking for the same deal $10/year deal but even just a half off coupon would have sufficed. Here's the email:

Hey Xenio,
As much as I'd love to let you use the promo code or give you a discount
on another year, that's not something that I can do. I'm terribly sorry
about that. I understand if you need to go somewhere else too. Whatever
you feel you need to do to get the most bang for your buck, right?
If you happen to have any other questions, let me know and I'll be happy
to answer them for you.
Thanks,
Jason
So, I now have a new account with netfirms, its just gonna be a bitch to move over my databases and sites that i had hosted on there.
Anyone know how to move databases from host to host or any linkage to info on that?
