Palm M500 @ OfficeMax $154 + $100 GC. Good through 9/7/2002

This is my first post so forgive me if this is a loser.

- OM has the M500 for $199.
- Price match it to Staples for $184.98
- Use the coupon to take $30 off
- Use the rebate for a $100 GC.

Final : (154.98 + tx ) + $100 GC

It's more like $160+$100 OfficeMax Gift Card.

Well, it will sure feel like $100 when I purchase that new digital camera come Christmas time. I guess you could spin it any way you want, but its still $100.

OM does not have it online, and my B&M did not let me use that online coupon :|

And, the 800 number on that rebate form was disconnected. :Q

It just did this deal not two hours ago and they had no problem with the online coupon. It was not in stock in the internet store and they were going to have to ship it from the local store anyway. I guess you connected with a really tight store manager.

yah, wasup with all these deals where people put liek 9.99 shipped and its after a ton of rebates and pricematches and crap. Also, crap like this where people take 100 dollars off, how is it 100 dollars off if they give you 100 dollars to spend at their store after the fact!?!?!

I agree and here's a great use for the $100 GC:

1) Buy the Palm m500 and get your $100 GC. Sell the Palm for $159 or higher.
2) After you have your GC buy the Canon PowerShot A40 at OM B&M for $299 - $50 off $250 coupon - $100 GC = $149.

It's still 160 out of pocket, not 60. The title needs to be modified to reflect that. I only clicked on it because it stated 60.00. It's not a bad deal but it is misleading. Needs to say M500 for 160.00 with a 100 GC.
