compusa "Forget the Rebates" Sale

[SelArom]

I just got this in my email. I don't know if the link will work but here it is anyway

LINK

From the email:
Offers may not be combined with any other offer. Quantities limited to stock on hand. See store for details. Not available on clearance items. Offers not valid in Puerto Rico.
PRINT THIS AD & SAVE UP TO $250

it says the instant rebates REPLACE the manufacturers rebates, so you can't redeem them, but would the mfr really deny them?! I don't see why, since they don't go to compusa! could be hot?

Proof Comp USA (notice the USA) hates Puerto Ricans?

Nothing really jumps out at me...

canon pixma ip3000 is 79.99 but newegg has it for 64.95 and a 20 MIR to make it 44.95.

I think compusa probably fills out the rebates for you, so if you were to try again yourself, you'd be denied. Otherwise compusa stands to lose a lot of money.

Same

if anything, it can make some decent price matching to stores that ARE offering the mfr rebates

except in Puerto Rico

Isn't that gateway laptop at a decent price? Especially with the 60gb, and it's not as bad as compaq or hp.

I think it is a pretty good price. 1.3 Celeron M processor, CDRW/DVD, 512 ram, 60gig hdd. Looks good to me.

Nothing great. But hope other big retailers do the same no rabate sales.

MP3 player dosen't look too bad, although nothing really stands out there. Not going to bother.

Gateway sucks......dont buy their craptops....

That 27" LCD looks sweet, although 1280 x 720 might not cut it as far as computer users who are use to 1600 x 1200.
