Could someone please post a link to the $50 off $250 coupon, or the $40 off coupon? I have not been able to find it since Friday. Thanx.

Also, what is "thick wallet" that I have seen referred to here on occasion?

Gotta get some more of that double-rebate goodness after the $14.95 maxtor deal from last week...
you can send in the UPC copy with the OfficeMax rebate and the oringal to thr Mfg. You can call the 800 number on the OfficeMax rebate form to make sure it's ok to do it that way.

You can buy this online - I just bought two of them!!!

Find the link for the $50 off of $250, and the prices and rebates are all on the page. Search for SYS LCD on the front page after clicking through the $50 Coupon.

Thanks. The $40 officemax deal is good.

It says nothing about a mininum purchase, so can I buy some paper clips and receive the credit? Maybe a separate thread for this should be considered.

well response time on this lcd monitor is pretty low, so I dont think you'll enjoy fps movies on it that much. But for general pc usage, it should be great. Give your eyes a break and turn on your crt when gaming

Okay, I went ahead and ordered. Can't wait to see how she compares the the Planar 19" (which supposedly left the FedEx facility at 7:30 on Sat).

I had one in my cart, but went out to try to see it in person. None in Dalllas. When I returned they were not available, but if they were I was
going to try both Discover discount and coupon. I guess I will have to wait for something else to try it on?

I am not sure how I "got around it". I do know that OfficeMax delivers from their stores in my city (KC) so it could be that they are just delivering it from a store to my home and one to my office too :)

Did you ask for the $50 off $250 with a coupon code online, or is there actually a coupon / coupon code? I looked for over an hour last night and couldn't find anything, then called OM.com and they were closed...

It's a click-through link that can be found at the website I mentioned earlier...
