I also looked right at the start of the thread. And although they had some cute choices, I concur that the sizes were limited.

So, this is the same PS2 that is sold out on the BB website? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat02164&type=category I had one in my little hands and it was $149. Too bad for me, I put it back down cause I felt too guilty cause I went a little overboard on BF. Hubby now says, "Why didn't you get it?"

Am I missing something here? The page I get shows the cheapest one is at $210? That means people are selling it for SIXTY dollars over MSRP?($149) Someone correct me if I am wrong? And to think, I was in BB a few weeks back and had one in my hands and decided to pass on it.

Wow! I blew that one! I posted SD cards. Sorry, had that on the brain. I bought some like at 5 different places from free to a few bucks. So sorry!

It worked for me a few days ago?

Staples has got to be one of the worst companies for getting rebates! I have tried SEVEN times to input my items from BF on the "easy reabte" site (what a joke!), and it has given me an error page at various pages after entering all the info. Then, I go to print out the forms to send by mail and it doesn't give me all the rebates I have coming. I called the CS# and got vague answers time after time. I am tempted to just go there with the box of stuff I ordered and ask for a refund. If they make it this hard to get your DESERVED rebates, why bother? Oh yeah, I should've learned from last years BF. It took me until JUNE to finally get my rebates back. Off to call them again. Cover your ears! &*$#*&&%$($(#

I agree, Samcasey. They had their chance on BF to deliver and they are now trying to make up for it. I doubt consumers will flock to Wallyworld to save a buck or three on stuff. At least this chick won't! They will really have to blow out prices for the savvy shoppers to take notice IMO. Sue

Thanks so much!!!! Great deal! Sue

Looks like for whatever reason, the website won't allow me to use the easy rebate system. Maybe because I ordered the items by phone. My packing slip shows 11/28, so I am hoping they realize that I did order on 11/26. I have had problems in the past with theses guys and I hope the same thing doesn't happen like last year (I waited until MAY for my rebates). Oh well, now to get them in the mail. This should be interesting on when I will see the rebates. I am betting on end of April or early May.

I called last night (11/30) to tell them that their system wasn't accepting my rebates. That's when the CSR told me the above. YMMV :)

FYI- the impression I got from the telephone convo with the Staples CSR was that she seemed to think that all the people that submitted the easy rebates up until now MAY have to do them again because of the crash. If I were ya'all, I would make sure that the processing of your rebates is good to go.

Seems like Staples "easy rebates" system crashed and they said the system will be back up Friday. I got my stuff via UPS and tried to use the program and it kept kicking me back to an error page (go figure). I called a CSR and she says that too many hits on the system cause it to crash (how about preparing ahead?). Anyway, I am torn between just doing the rebates by mail to make sure they are in the system. When I started that, it sent me emails with confirmation #s. Next, to mail in the rebates.<sigh> Maybe I will try to get the program going back on Friday. I am looking at $112 in rebates there (out of $142 total). Wanna parlay that into other bargains (wherever they may roam).

I wouldn't count on it. lol Lets hope they have learned there are more than just them in the big picture.

Since I ordered my items on BF at Staples from the phone, I have to wait for the #'s to include from the packing slip.

newgirl- thanks alot for the find! :) Sue

Great deal!!!!! Just placed my order also. Thanks for the heads up. :) Sue

Hi Michelle, I ordered my things fron Staples by phone (Sears also, lucky me!). When I did go on that Staples website, I did jot the numbers down. The DVR # was 73844 and the DVR+ # was 41082. Those are the $5 off coupon codes. Now, for the "easy rebate", you will have to wait to receive the items and the packing slip. There will be #'s that you will use from the slip as well as the item boxes to then get online for the rebates. Hope that helps?
