    OfficeMax Specials for 12/18 - 12/20

    I was thinking of getting that MA DVD burner, since I'm in the market for one. After doing some research I decided to pass on this drive. It's a BTC manufactured drive and the BTC forum on CDfreaks is full of people experiencing problems with this drive, everything from it being picky with media...

    OM Friends and Family sale 12/13

    The flyer for this event that was posted on Bargain$hare has no DVD burner listed. I could find no listing of "for market A, B,C etc ...." on it anywhere. Can anyone confirm the DVD burner? If anyone can please post what state you're in so we can get an idea if it's regional or not.

    Bush personal computer Desk $24.95 / My bad not $19.99 YMMV!

    Can we get an SKU or something for the desk and chair? The only desk on the web site, as someone else mentioned, is $99 and the only fabric chair is $69, even if you choose store pickup. An SKU , Product # or Model # will let those of us with long drives check price and stock in our local store...

    OMax 120 GB for $40 + tax after rebate

    The restriction that they put on the product page: " **THIS OFFER CANNOT BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY OTHER COUPON OFFERS**" can possibly be used by Office Max to deny you your rebate. You'll have to enclose a copy of your receipt and it will show $50 in discounts, so they'll know you used a...

    Warm: Lollapalooza tickets $5-9 apiece

    Um... Sounds like standard procedure, not really fine print... Do you really want somebody without your ID and confirmation to be able to pick up your tickets? And who doesn't have either a Visa, mastercard, discover or american express? Doesn't that pretty much cover everything? Um ....will...

    OD Requiring bar code coupons for pickup or delivery - anyone can confirm?

    I picked up my DDR ram order today and clerk asked me for the coupon. Before I could give him an excuse he said he called me "last night" to tell me to bring it but got no answer. That's when I showed him my order printout and asked him how he could have possibly called me since my order was...

    DEAD: Video Capture Card $10 AR Comp USA (Analog)

    k000 - try the tweaked drivers at the review link that tk149 posted. People on that site report that using those drivers along with other (free) software instead of what's bundled with the card made their output much better. I'd give that a try before returning the card. It might solve your...

    DEAD: Video Capture Card $10 AR Comp USA (Analog)

    tk149 - right on that same CompUSA page you can input your zip code and it will tell you if your local stores have it in stock (or more accurately if they had it in stock as of close the night before IIRC) Thanks for the review link. The reviews say it will capture MPG1 & 2 as well as AVI, and...

    DEAD: Video Capture Card $10 AR Comp USA (Analog)

    Card is included in the box The OP knows that, that's why he posted. I don't see any mention of what format this card captures in. Trikster2 - do you know? If it captures in MPEG it might be worth spending $10 to try it out.
