is it just me or are none of the items on circuitcity.com available for online purchase anymore?

I had no problem getting the hard drive deals there, only gotcha was that they moved all the HDD's to the PDA/camera island so I had to search around the store a while to find them. It took me a minute to figure it out when there were none of the drives to be found in the normal HDD area.

yeah Office Max has been cutting down on FAR stuff. I was in there about a year ago and the manager told me that they will be cutting back on that stuff and focusing on SOHO customers and having less rebates... I guess he wasn't kidding. They used to have free 100packs of CDRs like every week but I havent seen any FAR stuff there in ages! Conclusion: OM Sucks.

There is just nothing that great this year. (that i need)

the link for the rebates on it is this --> http://stapleseasyrebates.com/staples/SkuCode_list.do?itemNumber=573078 you should see 3 rebates for $50 that are valid in this timeframe, 2 of which you can submit, the third is a duplication I believe because when I went to submit them, I tried to claim all 3 but their system only allowed me to submit 2 (offers 04-86396 and 04-26830) for some reason. But at $100 I'm very happy with this deal. UPDATE: Just called the rebate center and asked them about that third rebate (offer# 04-26820) ...They said it was just a fluke in the system and that I should check the website in a month for them to fix the offer online or mail it in (but I couldn't get that offer to print from their website, so I'm going to wait the month and try it online again), now I should get an extra $50 back in the mail making the possible final printer cost an unbelievable $50!!

The name's Jeff, glad I could be of service ;-)

yeah man, this needs to go on the front page...I've never seen a loaded AIO like this for so cheap!

Staples.com has the Epson CX6600 All-In-One printer on sale for $200 now, minus $50 manufacturer's rebate, and $50 Staples rebate = $100 after rebates! Also, the item is available online or in the store and the rebates can be submitted online through stapleseasyrebates.com or you can mail it in. This is a great deal on an all in one printer that's pretty nice...thought you all might like to know about it since it's not advertised in their circular this week, but I've already got one and I just did the rebates online so it's all good! Offer is valid from 1/9/05 - 1/15/05

Totally scored at Office Max, got there a little before 6am and was first in line, needless to say I got everything I wanted...sent one of my friends to Kmart to get the Liteon DVD Recorder for me, she only got there an hour early but she was second in line and got one no problem. That DVD recorder was such a deal. It's great to live in a town just big enough to have an Office Max and Kmart, etc, but not too many people concerned with BF deals. :) :)

not avail till friday morning at 6am. not a bad idea to limit links only to items currently available. I wasn't aware that was your strategy. 'preciate all your work to put this BF stuff together, keep up the good work.

^Yeah man, no doubt about that...never expected that gem to pop up anywhere, let alone at Kmart. And for just $150, damn good deal. --> And there's no rebate either, that's Allwrite by me!

Will these Staples items get added to the online list? Just wondering

Anyone have any idea how Kmart runs things in the morning? I really want one of those Liteon Allwrite DVD Burners for $150 and the circular says limited quantities and no rain checks. Will they give me a ticket for one or do I just have to get in line early there?

You missed it, I'm pretty certain I saw one at Staples and/or OfficeMax Here's one example from OfficeMax: Iomega 160GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive - $89.99

Staples has thier official Black Friday specials posted on thier website, just go to their current specials, then view in-store specials to see the circular. --> It looks like most of their stuff will be avail online at 6am on 11/26 at the great BF prices, after rebates of course. see: http://www.staples.com/products/spotlights/041121/earlybird/Default.asp To get the BF prices there are a bunch of coupon codes you will have to enter, but it sounds like it should be easier than waiting out front early in the morning. Now to get my laptop on the Internet while I'm waiting out front of Office Max so I can order from Staples...
