This can't be right for 10,000 uses.....they must have expired the coupon after a certain amount of money was spent using the coupons or after 1000 uses.

i tried... it doesn't work... but good idea!!! 🙂

it shows up at first but when you check out it goes away
 
I went through employee purchase first- guy at Dell told me the coupon would be good under that program. No good.
Switched over to Home and Home office. Had my order finished, discount applied- printed cart, hit submit order and page was expired. Tried going back to cart to resubmit- won't accept my coupon code.

Time of order was 8:40.

At least I printed page showing discount applied- maybe I'm one of 10,000, and can get this straightened out.
 
oh well, more money for me... ill just wait for the new line of the inspirons... i wasnt too sure if I wanted the 700m.... plus tax usually sux also...
 
BonusBucks coupons DO work in conjunction with this $750 off and 2% off coupon. 🙂 Don't forget to go through www.ebates.com for another 2% back (or FatCash, or whatever).

I ended up with a total of $840 off.

🙂

Edit: Guess that advice is a little late since the coupon is dead already, but keep it in mind for next time!

There is a diff coupon for EPP. It states 5000 uses and as of now it is still working.
 
Hey thanks people - I'm in 6:15am PST.

Expected ship date 4/22

700m 1.5/256/60GB/DVD+-R/8cell battery.

I reaaally appreciate it guys
 
Damn, this sucks. I specifically said to my friend yesterday, "I highly doubt it will be gone in 2 hours, so you'll be ok."

She asked if she should give me her CC to order it up and I told her to wait! She's gonna be bummed 🙁

stop b!tching, some people who really needed this arent able to get it because of people trying to make a quick buck by buying 5 of them.

Yes, really needed... Dell has laptops for $699 if somebody "really needed" a laptop. "
Really wanted" is more like it.

As a wise man told me this morning "You snooze you lose!"

Just called to inquire on shipping. Dell stated min. order of $899 needed to get FREE S&H, before taxes (and coupon deduction obviously)... so I may just make an upgrade now. Thinking.....

My first one got charged shipping, my second one didn't. Don't know. i'm going to call later.
 
I originally was charged for taxes, but once I received my confirmation it had been removed! $865 total here as well.
