NOTE: If you dont want to read my entire op, PLEASE check my "good stuff" post below for the "hottest" items (summary). ALthough there may be some items of interest to you in this post right here, most of the hottest stuff is in the post below. This is my typed summary of the entire huge ad:

thats about all folks!

I don't think anyone is going to camp out in front of Staples

I thought you were going to type only the good stuff.

I wonder if Staples will allow use of their coupons for the iPod bundle purchase . If so, that will make it much hotter, as $50 for those accessories is not that great.

yall should be on the lookout for new laptop deal additions on this site. Yesterday I saw a cool laptop for $350. not here now, but who knows about whats later?

Is this link dead?
I'm getting

Generic Error

A system error has occurred. Please continue to Staples.com.

sorry. i guess Staples removed that site or is updating it.

besides the laptop deals ive posted in op, this is the hottest deal on Staples.com for laptops right now. any would qualify you for the free after rebate HP d1560 printer

Compaq Presario F767NR Refurbished Notebook PC

* AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-60 (2.0GHz) processor
* 2GB installed memory
* 250GB hard drive

I agree that this F767NR isnt such a hot deal, but yesterday Staples.com had an acer laptop for $350. who knows when such a similar or clearance deal will come back soon? so thats why you should check back on the Staples site later. just type computer. click notebook and sort by price.

this is what I meant
Staples had this yesterday. i copied this down striaght from their site earlier.
acer Aspire One mini Notebook Computer
8.9-in. LCD Display
Intel Atom N270 processor
1GB memory
120GB hard drive
802.11b/g wireless
Webcam.
Windows XP Home

maybe Staples is out of stock on this right now. thats why they removed it from their site now.

The $350 is regular price for Acer Aspire One mini Notebook Computer everywhere. All Staples store has this computer now. You can get this computer on eBay under $300 after live 25% Cash Back.

Staples is selling junks!!!

Where have you guys been? Pyee01 is sneaking around in the back room of Staples (in Flushing, NY I think) and at best he can sneak quick photos of the ads w/ his phone while he pretends to be lost looking for the bathroom. What he needs is a way to download his pics on FW!

pyee01 said: I sure hope I can get green for my tremendous efforts and time expended.

Red for begging for green.

actually the best part of this deal are NOT the prices, but the allowances for your trade in. we all have a bunch of old stuff that we no longer use, and cannot sell on eBay or craigslist. this is where you unload those stuff and get a discount.
