Coupon Code seems dead!! Now excludes technology items

So I will call the deal dead

Office Depot has a great deal on the Maxtor 40Gb Hard drive 7200rpm for

for $89.84 -$20 instant savings (if you use in store pickup option) $30 rebate (you might need to search OD rebates under Maxtor for the full print out) for $39.99 with free shipping

DEAL is now lukewarm at best!!!

I like the deals on the smaller HD's. Even though the $/GB isn't as good as some of the deals for a larger HD, you're not paying as much and if you know you don't need much storage then it's better to spend less and get the smaller HD.

Good deal for a solid drive.

Got one. Thanks. I padded my order with cd/dvd mailers that are on sale for $1.92 down from around $2.50. I added 3 packs of 6 to push it just over the $75 mark, so I could use a $15 off $75 coupon.

BTW.. The item number for the cd/dvd mailers is 444513 in case anyone is interested. I'm always sending cdr's to people, so this will come in handy anyway.

This isn't that great of a deal. You could get the 120 Gigs HD for $20 AR and coupons from previews post. Check other posted hot deals.

Its warm at best, the 80gb maxtor they had last week for $40 AR was a little better.

Good deal for those looking for smaller drives. Much better to get something new than some used junk from someone who packs it poorly or is outright broken to begin with.

You should be able to get out the door pre tax for around $30

The Sunday ad does not specify that the Hard drive is only for in store pickup, so they should Price Match the online price, make sure to print out the rebate, Office Depot pulls rebates sometimes.


Guys, you know where to get filler, right?

Filler thread

Good luck !

Coupon code isn't working for me (why did you X it out?) I put the HD in the cart and it accepts the coupon, but then it keeps saying my order total is $0.00 and of course can't use the coupon!!!!!

I'd like to know how you guys are working this deal.
(CD06) The coupon ********70, requires an order total of at
least 75.00,. At this time the order total is .00. This may be
the result of certain product exclusions. Please review the
promotion and disclaimer for complete explanation on what the
intent of the coupon *******70, is. If necessary, add more
products and try again. Thank you.


I called, and they said that coupon cannot be used. So just what is the coupon code? I don't see it at Techbargains.

[edit, removed coupon code]

I agree, I don't need 80 much less 120 gigs. This way I save at least $10 and lose nothing in terms of utility.

You've been here since November of 2000 and you don't know that you can not ask for coupon codes here?

Actually, since 7-99. ;) And no, I never was aware of that since I rarely visit this part of the site.

I'm not now asking FOR the coupon code, but WHERE I can find it. The original post above had it, but it's been removed. So, why such a ridiculous guideline about codes?

AnandTech got into hot water with certain retailers ..so.... no coupon codes..generally...
At this time the order total is .00. This may be
the result of certain product exclusions.
some of OD's codes/coupons exclude certain items..i.e. technology ones usually...and..no ..I do not have any OD codes..I usually go B&M with a competitors' coupon/code printout/email..;)

Hmmmm.......Ok, thanks for the info. Well, I'll gladly settle for the PLACE to find this one that rasputinj posted. I couldn't find it at Techbargains or Fatwallet, so please someone LMK.
Thanks.

It is at my site if you need it, check for deal or under the coupon section. Or search around, I am not the only one in town that has it..

rasputinj, and all, thanks but that is the exact same coupon code I tried and they rejected. I even called them and the girl said that is a "non tech" coupon not valid in the HD.

Looks like OD has changed the $15 off $75 coupon to exclude technology. The $20 off $100 might work, but that really changes the deal.

In my opinion the deal is dead!!
