    Sold out! OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" 90GB SSD ~$135 with MIR/promo code/shellshock

    That's the way it works. Nothing special about the code, they bury it at the bottom of the deal ads they send out when you sign up for you guessed it e-mail ads. ("E-blast subscribers" I think)

    Mobil 1 Oil Change Special $30 (B&M only)

    ??? wait, are they going to change the oil for you or is this just for the oil and filter, because I was at wal-mart like 2 weeks ago and a 5 qt jug of mobil-1 was $26 and the 1 qts were 6.27. I don't know how much the filters were because I have one already.

    hole in antenna affects performance?

    $50 off Amazon Kindle

    I saw the Sony e-book thing at Target for $300 last week. Seems like that's the price I see it at most often. Don't know if it has anything comparable to "lifetime cellular Internet connection" or how it compares otherwise.
