Yup, the advance notice is great, but there has got to be a better way to organize this. It's important to realize that nobody is bitching about anything, we all just want to help make the deals more available for everyone. To that end, any more brainstorms on how to make this work?

SDOG34,

Your post is on the first page. Would you like to update a "summary post" for us?

Any deal on floppy drive? Sadly PC still need floppy drive to upgrade bios and stuff.

Any deal on mouse? Any corded opstical would be great. Those cordless just eat the batt. like crazy.

On other side, any TV receiver deal? U know the PCI card that you can plug in the Antenna and watch TV.

Thanks dude.

Rebate needed for this?

Also, does Norcent package Lite-Ons as often as other companies?

i dont see the big deal about scanning the things...

hell some guy posted the 4/13-4/19 OM ad like 1 week ago...the SCANS of it that is...

i mean unless you work for any of these companies, its no big deal to post them somewhere...

Pretty straight forward. The T and Cs from the site that I get the images from does not allow me to:

1. Host the images.
2. Pass along the scans for hosting.
3. Share my username and password.

Bottom line. Anybody that displays a scan of an advertisement risks getting a letter from the retailer.

A letter??? risks getting canned and sued. I know a half dozen or so of people on here that were canned for putting up ads early and or discussing promotions early. Thats why all you people need to stop asking for scans or whatnot. I doubt he is going to risk his job so you can look at the newspaper a half of a week early...
