Well, I'll give it a shot.

Coupon expires in November or something, so I'm good on that front. I just think I'm going to run in to some trouble with management, as this probably gives their sales numbers hell.


How does this Dell Laptop compares to the Asus one on sale in Frys.

anti virus

their warranty
a case for it and $500 of other stuff...

Um no thanks. In my heart of hearts, I don't care about their sales numbers -- I just don't want to deal with irate Staples employees.

I'm going to go pick one up today and return/rebuy tomorrow.

I know.
I have been read the riot act about when I buy and there is nothing extra in the employees
"basket" which they track...

They all know me and I can only buy from 3 workers who are not tracked and it must be 3 laptops at a time.....
From one store only.....
It does work for me..Kinda....

Dude, what are you on about? I can only comprehend like 1/10 of what you post.

I just picked up one of these laptops for 629+tax. Going for the return/rebuy option tomorrow. WISH ME LUCK.


Also, should I not open this laptop up to avoid any problems tomorrow? I feel like if I leave it sealed, I can pull the "it hasn't even been opened" card. Alternatively, if it's a lemon, I'll have to go through more hassle of getting it replaced.

Make the economy happy, buy something with the laptop.

There is no need to even take it with you
JUST THE RECEIPT....

They pegged me as a reseller.....

I might try that, and they're supposed to take opened laptops back within 14 days with no muss, so I am going to check it later. Thanks!


Don't forget the Blue or Pink free extra lid......
$29.99 then a coupon code they have will take it off.


Anyone knows what time this deal goes live? It's almost 10:30 PST now.

If available on line, my exp has been 3 am pacific

Where can I find the coupon code for the free blue/pink lid? Thanks

THE FREE ITEM IS ON THE FRONT PAGE OF AD (IN HAND)
No number listed, store will have it....
Previous code was 73780 expiring 3/31/2012



free cover (244.66kB)
Disclaimer

Free pink or blue cover


Coupon code #68019 on the item listing now automatically adds to cart. So without stacking other coupons, this is almost $80 less than Amazon after +tax on $450 & -rebate, not including that lid.

Still, don't think you can do much better than this if you need a notebook for less than $400.


I have a $30 off 150 that I bought from ejunkies..... work just fine...,


I thought ejunkie codes don't work on laptops? Can anyone confirm this? Another $30 off would make this extra hot!


That is exactly what I thought. I looked at EJunkie website and I do not see any coupon that would work with a laptop or desktop.


This morning, I bought the HP desktop mentioned in another thread and successfully applied an ejunkie code. I only bought a $25/75 thinking that if it didn't fly, I could use it later on a K-cup deal. But it did work.

Please share your thoughts. Thank You.

The Dell is much better, the Asus has a MUCH slower processor (over 5x slower!) 2GB of memory instead of 6GB (2GB is not enough really, 6GB is plenty) also the Dell has a larger hard drive... There is really no comparison, I would not recommend the Asus, its a netbook with a 15" screen. The Dell is a great deal (just bought one for my sister-in-law)

Worked for me as well!


Using a non pc coupon in store has always been, YMMV.
On line, "it has been reported..."
Initially it will be accepted, then before shipment denied... <<< both documented on previous FW posts


wonder if this one would slip through? Post if yours shipped


Staples stores must have a ton of these.
Unlike online, I have never seen a store search within 500 miles of me not have stock....
Thats about 12 locations.


importcf said:   wonder if this one would slip through? Post if yours shipped

 


According to previous posts, orders online accepted have been totally cancelled
or they got a phone call advising the coupon is not valid on their purchase and do they still want it....

Well, I placed two orders - one without the 25off75 coupon and the other one without. Both were accepted and if the one with the 25 off 75 coupon does not ship, I will still have the other one. If both flies, I will return the one without the coupon to the store. Makes sense?

Good move as lone as dot com does not decide to call you a reseller and cancel all.....
They did me, but I bought dozens before they did that.

I have done it many times, they even know what I am doing, they have a preview of the new add.........

Target is the easiest....
Just take the receipt in, customer service scans it and they do a couple of clicks and the card used to purchase is credited....

Where can you can you preview targets' advertisement the week before?
