How about having the ability to carry around 16GB of data in your pocket? With the Corsair 16GB Voyager USB 2.0 Flash Drive, you can do just that. At only $40 at Buy.com after mail-in rebate, this represents a 71% discount off the msrp. With that much storage, you can essentially store almost 4 full-length DVD movies, or if they’re dual layer, 2 full-length movies. That’s also a ton of mp3s, which is great for taking your mp3 collection to work with you.
Buy.com also has a great deal on the SHARP AQUOS 52″ 16:9 4ms 1080p LCD HDTV w/ ATSC Tuner & HDMI LC-52D62U. Even though it’s a refurbished model, the price is still extremely aggressive at $1300, or 57% off the suggested retail price of $3000. The Sharp AQUOS line has regularly received awesome ratings, right up there with the Sony Bravia. In fact, I chose a Bravia back when I was shopping for big screen TVs because the price was better, but the performance between both was right on par.
If the outdoors is your thing, check out Cabela’s, where we have several great offerings today. First up is the Cabela’s Logo Cap. Normally $15, these have been reduced to $3.88. Not only that, but they actually look stylish–especially if you’re into the whole camo thing. This a great addition to your hunting or fishing attire.
Sticking with the camo theme, there’s also the Whitetail Series Uninsulated Hunting Boot available for $60, or 54% off the normal price of $130.
And finally, after a long grueling day of fishing, hunting, hiking, or whatever your preference is for camping, check out the Cabela’s Standard Folding Camp Hammock. At $50, this comes in at 50% off the msrp.
Enjoy!

Imagine that, 1TB of hard disk storage all in one hard drive footprint. That’s a lot of storage, and outside of a home theater PC or a really bad YouTube addiction, I can’t imagine what you’d need that much space for. Nonetheless, I know if I purchased one, I would soon find myself running out of disk space, somehow.
But who cares, because ZipZoomFly has the SEAGATE ST31000340AS 1TB SATA 7200 RPM 32MB Hard Drive on sale for an incredible price of just $140. That’s $60 off the retail price of $200 and represents a price of just $0.14/TB. At 7200 rpm with SATA interface, this hard drive is hard to beat.
Next, we have another great deal on the Logitech G5 2-Tone 7 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Laser 2000 dpi Mouse. The description pretty much says it all: 7 buttons with USB, plus a great resolution at 2000 dpi, making it more than adequate for your gaming needs. Just use coupon code EMCAJBKCB at checkout, and you can get this for a great price of $29, a 42% discount off the msrp of $50, with free shipping as well. This product is rated 5 stars after 393 reviews.
Have a good one!

It’s that time of year again, as school starts back up and students try to pack as much as humanly possible into a tiny 10′ x 10′ space–which they have to share with one other person, of course.
My days in the dorm bring back fond memories. It’s the only time in life where you can have everything you need within 5′ of you, including the TV, computer, fridge, microwave, bathroom, etc.
Of course, to manage this, you have to be very resourceful. For instance, you’ll need a television that doesn’t take up much space, which is why today we’re featuring the Insignia 22″ Class 720p Widescreen Flat-Panel LCD HDTV. With a price of only $300 at Best Buy, that’s 25% off the msrp, and includes a strong 4.4 star rating after 5 reviews. With PC inputs, this could in fact double as a monitor if you were really squeezed on money and/or space.
Next up on the dorm room must-have list is the Staples Battery Operated SlimLine Pencil Sharpener. This makes the list not just because you’ll need a pencil sharpener (I’m assuming schools still use Scantrons and number 2 pencils, but I’ll have to admit, it’s been awhile for me), but because this pencil sharpener comes in free after rebate. Just pay $10 and then send in the Stales easy $10 mail-in rebate.
The third item on our list comes in as one of those essential items as you look to squeeze in study time wherever possible. It’s the Antec Dual-Fan Laptop Cooler at $13, or 68% off the msrp of $40. This can be perfect for those situations where you need a laptop while on the move, whether it’s in class or enjoying the outdoors while getting some work done.
Have a great week.

For a limited time, McDonald’s is giving away a free southern style chicken sandiwch with the purchase of a regular or large drink. Somehow it ties into the Olympics, I’m not really sure, but regardless, it’s free food. Just fill out the form when you click through the link and take it from there.
If computers and electronics do more to curb your appetite, check out the offerings this week at Best Buy. For starters, they have the Dell Inspiron Laptop with Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T2390 on sale for just $450, or $200 off the msrp. This laptop comes in with a customer rating of 4.8 stars after 33 reviews, and includes a dual core processor with a 15.4″ display.
Best Buy also has a sale on the Samsung Digimax 5.0MP Digital Camera. At only $100, it’s $250 off the list price of $350. It comes loaded as a 5MP camera, with image resolutions up to 2592×1944. The 4.8x optical zoom is a nice addition as well.
Finally, check out the Amcor 8,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner from Circuit City. It comes in at $140, or 60% off the msrp of 349. With a 4 star rating after 50 reviews, this portable air conditioner has an auto water drain feature, otherwise known as the Auto Drain NanoMist technology. I think that’s just a fancy way of saying it circulates the water that gets collected, but don’t quote me on that.
Enjoy!

The summer is still heating up, as stores like Office Depot are getting even more aggressive with their promotions. The latest is an online coupon for 10% off any purchase of any size, no minimum! Just use coupon code 42759854 at checkout and it will apply to your entire cart. If you want to pick up your items from your local Office Depot, just choose in-store pickup on your order to solidify your 10% off coupon.
Next up on our summer savings list is Dell. Through their member purchase program, you can get the Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 SATA NCQ Internal Hard Drive for a super low price of $110 shipped! That’s insane, only 11 cents per gigabyte, which has to be a record. Again, you have to be affiliated with the member purchase program. I’m not sure what happens if you’re not and still go through the checkout process, as this link seems to allow you to add the hard drive and continue through the checkout process regardless of the information you enter.
Finally, Kohl’s still has a 10% off coupon code, which can be used to stack onto already great savings in their clearance section. Just use coupon code NEW7706 on items such as the Men’s Tony Hawk Checkered Board Shorts, which with the discount come up at $6.48, or 82% off the list price!
Or, check out the stylish Men’s Tony Hawk Palms Board Shorts for the same great price of $6.48 with the 10% off coupon code from Kohl’s.
Have a wonderful Saturday, and come back tomorrow for some great savings!

Dell has an awesome sale this weekend on a couple of Dell XPS laptops. The first is the Dell XPS M1330 laptop, which retails for $1678, but is on sale this weekend for $1149. It even includes free second day shipping through Dell, which is rare.
You can also pick up the Dell XPS M1530 for $50 more at $1199, which represents an even bigger cost savings of 33% off the msrp of $1802. While both laptops have a similar configuration with the same processor, memory, and hard drive, the M1530 has a better graphics card, and a better display. Because of this, I would highly recommend the M1530.
Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend!

It’s pretty obvious you all appreciate our console deals, as everytime we feature a special on a Xbox 360 or a PS3, the response is overwhelming. Today is no exception, as Dell has a great deal on the Xbox 360 Elite System, complete with a massive 120 GB hard drive and HDMI support, as well as a couple of games. This retails for $449, but with 22% off the list price via coupon code V8Q199$GCXJWL$, it can be yours for just $349.
Next up, Circuit City is running a special this week where they feature a different deal each day in their back to school promotion event. Today’s pick is the Zenith 22″ LCD HDTV. At only $300, it’s $150 off the list price of $450, or a savings of 33%. This is a great, small TV for a dorm room.
Finally, Buy.com, our perennial powerhouse in a long list of merchants, has two great offers. First, the Micro (R/C) Remote Control Helicopter is featured at a great price of only $13, or 74% off the list price of $50. I’ve heard RC helicopters can be a bit of a trick to fly, so why not start cheap so that your first few wrecks don’t send you to the poorhouse?
Buy.com also has a great deal on a digital archive of Rolling Stone magazine! For $40, or 80% off the list price of $200, you can search back through 40 years of Rolling Stone material to find articles about your favorite bands with this digital, searchable archive.
Enjoy!

Today’s featured items include a service for finding contractors and a great sale going on at a well-known electronics distributor.
First, if you own your own home, you’re probably very much acquainted with home repairs. If you have some big remodeling projects, or even just some smaller chores like electrical issues or a plumbing problem, then check out Angie’s List. In a nutshell, Angie’s List is a web-based tool for finding reviews on local repair and service providers. You can read about other peoples’ experiences with a particular contractor before hiring their services.
But for me, I think the best part is not just finding a reputable contractor, but also the insurance policy this provides when that contractor shows up to do the job. Just a simple mention of Angie’s List will keep the contractor honest, as he knows you have the ability to share his workmanship with the world through their rating system and their ability to provide feedback and comments on your review.
I’ve used Angie’s List on several occasions, and I’ve always been amazed at how great the work is, how affordable it is, and how honest the contractors are, especially after mentioning I found them on Angie’s List.
Next, 6th Avenue Electronics is having a storewide 5% off promotion, with some exclusions. Just use coupon code AFL5 at checkout to activate.
As you’ve noticed, we’ve started featuring a lot of 6th Avenue products on here, because their prices are just too competitive to ignore. A good example is the Yamaha RX-V1800BL 7.1-Channel Home Theater Receiver, which retails for $1199. With coupon code AFLYAM768, you can save 36% and get this bad boy for a low price of just $768.
Another great deal, assuming you have really deep pockets, is the Marantz VP15S1 Ultra High Definition DLP Projector. I’ve been hearing a lot about this projector, and all I can say is, this projector is sick. But, unfortunately, it has a price that matches. With a retail price of $8,999, it’s a little high for me, but with coupon code AFLMAR5888, you can pick this up for only $5,888, or 35% off the list price. I swear, if I win the lottery, this is one of the first things I’m buying.
Have an excellent Tuesday!

Today, we’re highlighting several great items from two different merchants. First, Busted Tees is having an awesome midnight madness sale where all shirts are only $12! If you’re not familiar with Busted Tees, it’s a great place to pick up some stylish, hip t-shirts, often with a funny or interesting slant to them.
Next, NewEgg has several great promotions running today, like the combo deal available for the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz Processor with 700W power supply for only $174, or 42% off the retail price of $300. If you’re looking to build a computer from scratch, this is an amazing combo deal, giving you plenty of power for the latest and greatest video cards, hard drives, etc., with a processor to match. Use coupon code EMCAJBCAB at checkout to get this great deal.
If you’re in the market for a new monitor, check out the two other offerings from NewEgg, like the BenQ G2400WD Black 24″ LCD Monitor for $290. That’s right, a 24″ LCD monitor for under $300, which represents a savings of $110, or 48% off the list of $400. Just use coupon code EMCAJBCCD at checkout.
Finally, if you’re looking for a monitor that’s a little more budget friendly and are willing to sacrifice on size (yeah, 22″ is a real sacrifice!), check out the SCEPTRE X22WG-1080P Black 22″ 2ms(GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor. A kissing cousin of the monitor we featured yesterday, this monitor definitely has everything you need, and with a 2ms response time, it’s more than adequate for gaming. To get this great deal, use coupon code EMCAJBCCD at checkout.
Enjoy!

Need to stack up on office supplies? What about a new office chair or a monitor? Well, now’s your chance, as OfficeMax has a promotion where you can save 20% off your entire order via mail-in rebate. How does it work? Just select PayPal as your checkout method, and you’ll immediately qualify for the 20% off promotion. Keep in mind that this 20% off promotion is capped at a maximum rebate of $25. Shipping is typically free on orders over $50.
With that, some good bets include the Sceptre 20″ X20WG HD LCD Monitor, for a super duper low price of just $136 after PayPal rebate, or 43% off the list price of $240. I can’t remember ever seeing a 20″ monitor at this price point. It certainly doesn’t hurt that it comes with a 1680×1050 display, as well as a pretty solid 5ms response time.
Another option includes their office chairs, like the OfficeMax Executive High-Back Chair for a great price of only $48. This represents a 52% discount off the msrp of $100. This chair features a variable tension tilt mechanism with lock out feature, pneumatic height adjustment, excellent lumbar support, and dual wheel casters.
Have a great week, and be sure to tune in throughout the week for more great deals and offers!
