Exclamation Hot Deals!

Updated! Check bottom for latest update

There are so many hot deals out there that people dont know of and cant take advantage of, so each week Im going to make a thread with hot deals for the week. I will update the thread durring the week if something changes or something new comes out. I was gonna do this earlier in the week but I got busy, so Im starting today. I will start a new thread for next week on monday.

Ill start with...


Monster Computer 500pc computer accessory kit

Web Only Deal(Possibly In-Store)

Regular Price - $99
Closeout Price - $19.90+$7.95


Staples is having a closeout on these. The kit has a whole bunch of cables(USB, Printer, 1394, Phone) as well as some cleaing materials(Monitor Wipes, Compressed Gas Duster) and it has a Monster PC800 Surge protector rated at 1665 Joules. Supplies are very limited, it was sold out last night, back in today. From what I understand, the $19.99 deal is only online, but it might be possible to print out the page and take it to a staples store and pricematch.

Expires: Unknown

Update: If you add something else to your cart to bring your total to $20 or more, you can enter coupon code 93036 and get $5 off your order.

-------------------------------------

Logitech Z540 Speakers

In-Store Deal

Regular Price - $79 to $99
Pricematch Price(AR) - $20


First you need an officemax sale paper from this past weekend. Next you need to go to the following link, and enter your email address, hit the submit button, then print the entire page. The $10 off $40 is the coupon you will use. Do not cut out the coupons.

http://www.mydogatemyrebate.com/staples1.html

Next, take the officemax sale paper and the paper you printed out to a staples store. Grab a Logitech Z540 and when you are checking out, ask them to pricematch to officemax, you will get 110% of the difference off. Then give the paper you printed out with the coupons. Total will come to around $40. Lastly, print out the following rebate and follow the directions to receive it:

It may prove difficult to qualify for the $30 rebate on the HDD as it's currently out of stock. Might not get the invoice in time to send it in before the due date.

It's a great deal though. As is the idea for this thread. Do you search for these yourself or get them via email?

Just different places on the net. Some forums, some email, some websites. Forums help the most, as they have the really good stuff, such as that $10 off $40 email coupon. I got into this whole deal thing about 2 months ago when I was searching for the cheapest prices on some things. I stumbled onto a few forums and websites and I been hooked and saving money ever since.

Theres some coupons that are not good though. Such as staples from time to time has a $25 off $25 coupon, which is esentially free(still pay tax/shipping). But if you use this coupon, and you are not one of the people authorized to use it, they will blacklist you from ordering ever again. The first time one of those poped up, thousands of people ordered stuff with them and most of them got blacklisted. Sometimes staples gets lazy and some slip through. Nothing I post though will get you blacklisted. I stay away from those.

"The Big 5" as they are called are officemax, officedepot, compusa, bestbuy and staples. They all usually have unadvertised webonly deals weekly, sometimes one day only(hence my brand new $140 highback executive leather chair which I got for $75 shipped ). Pricematching is also a big thing as you can get quite a bit of money off with high priced items that go on sale.

That first deal on the MonsterPC Starter kit is gonna be gone very soon. I would suggest anyone that needs a excellent surge protector grab one before its too late!

As for the hard drive, I think its over now because its no longer listed on their website. But fear not, as there is a deal on a good hard drive just about each week.

In fact, right now circuit city has a deal on a WD 120gb 2mb cache drive for $179 /w $50 mail in rebate, bringing it to $129. But next week should have some better deals.

Next week Im gonna put a section in with just coupon codes for like Amazon, Staples, Officemax, etc.

OMG, F******* staples has screwed me again.

They called yesterday telling me my order(the monster PC kit) would be delayed because it had to come from a bigger warehouse. Well thats fine, I dont care much about that. Today I get a call telling me my order "Accidentally" got sent to San Diego. Ugh, more delays, but oh well.

5 mins later I get another call telling me my order has been canceled because the item is not in stock and has been discontinued. W T F!

That is the 4th time staples has screwed me(3x in store, 1st time on the web). Never again.
