Toshiba Thrive

[dsnoyes]

Looking for a deal on a 16gig Toshiba Thrive - they're $399 everywhere - looking to get a deal for my brother. We won't actually be seing them until the weekend of New Years so I'm hoping if there's nothing between now and Christmas there may be an after Christmas special somewhere.

 

Any sales, coupons, one day deals you see - i'd love a heads up!

Thanks!

Me too! Some of the BF sales had them for 299.00, and I guess we won't see that price again, but I'm hoping someone will drop the price to 325 or 350 before Christmas.

Staples is the first out of the box. Thier 12/18 ad has the Thrive for $399.99, $50 "easy rebate" and a $50 prepaid VISA gift card! 12/18 through 12/24!

I ordered one from Amazon yesterday, because I was running out of time. I wonder if I can still cancel....

I'm a little peeved. The offer says "after easy rebate. Plus get a $50 VISA gift card" - I thought the wording was a little unclear so I called customer service yesterday to confirm it was for both a rebate and the gift card - after going to her Supervisor, she said; "we all read it the same way you do - that it's for both - but when the deal is actually posted you'll be able to click on offer link and get the details for it". Now I would think that they would know what the offer was - but apparently not - cuz when I did go to place the order today I was disappointed to discover is was only the $50 Visa gift card. It's still a nice deal - but I just wish their CS people had the facts yesterday as I shared this "deal" with several other people

Thanks for posting the update. I was too late to cancel my order anyway, and at least I got the free Prime shipping from Amazon (and the confidence that it will actually be here by Christmas)
