Seagate GoFlex Desktop External Hard Drives - clearance @ Staples B&M

Last night, I had some spotty luck with the Staples stock checker here, showing inventory at a few local stores, but all day today, it just shows "Coming soon" for all SKUs in this thread.

Is there another more reliable way to check, or did Staples wipe out inventory list for these items?

The 3 TB had a clearance price tag of $143.50 but rang up as $104.50. I was allowed to use the $5 off and 20% off coupons. The latter deducted $20.90 so the final price was $78.60. Thank you for posting this very sweet deal.

curiosity, was the 3TB USB 2.0 or 3.0?

I went to my local store and they didn't have any left. However, they did have the Logitech M305 Wireless Mouse on clearance for only $2.00...grabbed three. Good luck!

Unless store policy has changed, Staple$ is supposed to accept coupons up to 1 week past expiration.

Does it require manager override? If so, it's probably YMMV.

I provided a link to the actual policy in the original post. Although it is in writing, many managers take it upon themselves to interpret that policy any way they wish, so yes it's YMMV. The worse that can happen is they will say no, so why not try ? (taking a copy of the policy with you won't hurt either)

Well, I was trying to figure out how big of a YMMV it is. Most cashiers scan coupons without looking at the date. It would be easy if the system would just take the expired coupons. If it requires the manager to override the system, then things might be a bit more difficult.

Checked the stores near me and the IOmega 1TB and Seagate GoFlex 2TB were both gone. Several of the Seagate 1TB and a single 3TB, But wasn't what I was looking for.

Tried Munster, IN which was out of both the 2 and 3 TB USB 3.0, but found the 3TB in Valparaiso and proceeded to place an order in-store to fax over. Manager looked at the coupons and said they wouldn't accept them because they expired and it is Staples policy to not honor them. I asked about the 7-day grace period and he said there is no such policy even after I showed him the image on my phone. Cancelled the order process to drive the 45min to Valpo, and made sure to call ahead to verify they would accept the coupons. The manager asked to see the coupons as I was checking out and said due to the wording on them I would only be able to use one of them. Gift card made it $79.06 out the door so I'm happy.

Enter both fields and then press enter. If results page is no good, enter sku again, hit enter and then the keyboard's TAB key twice. This usually works but the website is down for service now
