Went to office max this morning since they have buy Belkin wireless pcmcia adapter for $39 after $10 instant and $10 mail in rebate and get the PCI Adapter for free. But the other night i was at staples and they have the same PCMCIA Adapter for $19.99 ( yes how amazing is that) so i pricematched it with staples and got it for 19.99 plus free PCI adapter plus $10 mail in rebate so after the rebate is $9.99 or before rebate is $19.99 + tax wherever you are.
Also they have Logitech Z 540 , 4 speaker subwofer combo for $49 (no rebates) and when you buy the Belkin stuff on your reciept it says get $10 off second item purchase so its $49 - $10 = $39 plus tax, thats a sweet price for those speakers :)

Nope, its two separate items, its in Sunday (Well for here Seattle Times newspapers) add for Office Max. i have scanned add if someone will host it.

Belkin wireless Pcmcia card item number : 2010-5743 and get free pci adapter with purchase item :2010-5672 ( use coupon code :122574415995...........................But before any of that have them call your local staples and pricematch the wireless pcmcia card to staples 19.99....

Thats whats listed under the PCI adapter so that sales person can take it off the purchase price. Its on the ad itself.

Belkin has a wireless DSL/Cable Router in the OM Sunday ads for $89.99 AR. They also have a PCMCIA Wireless card for $39.99 AR and it comes with a Free PCI adapter card. I have a $30 off $150 coupon I'm trying to figure out how to use in the store, since it states Online or phone orders only. OM.com doesn't have the Free PCI adapter offer either, otherwise it'd be a no-brainer.

Deal would work like this:

Router ($104.99) + PCMCIA card & free PCI adapter ($49.99) = $155

$155 - $30 coupon - $15 MIR (router) - $10 (PCMCIA) = $100 for router + PCI card

Is it possible to use those coupons in store?

If not, since the FREE PCI card comes with a coupon #, is it possible to use the coupon # online? I just called OM B&M and asked if they'd honor the PCMCIA if I bought it online. They said no. I really wanna order online and get the free card so I can go through MSN and get MSN dollars. Can't get that @ B&M. Any thoughts?

I got in a similar deal a few weeks ago. Maybe I just got a bad card (going to return it today), but the Belkin PCMCIA wireless card wasn't so hot for me. Even set to 1Mbit Tx rate, with the access point only 5ft away, I was experiencing 50% packet loss. Can't get too much done on a network where you lose half your packets!

Not to thread crap at all - just be wary, you might get what you pay for. On the other hand, I'm using the Belkin WAP, which seems to be working fine (I was experiencing packet loss on multiple networks, so I know it's the card, not the WAP).
