Best boxing day HDD deal

[Canadianpsycho]

OK, so far from the 3-4 that I've read, the WD 200GB for $115 after taxes and minus the $40-TD-I-hope-I-get-my-rebate deal looks to be the best, even though it isn't a boxing day item.

The FS/BB deals have just too high post tax pre rebate prices to consider so far.

Anyone see any better deals on a HDD 120-160GB or more?

just a regular price as always (Cash Price: $112.99)
Western Digital WD-1600JB 160GB 8MB 9ms 7200rpm UDMA/100

eh? original poster posted:
1) 200gb
2) after tax and after rebate

i think the tiger_direct is pretty good deal. the fs/bb deal probably includes MIR also.

i bought the 160gig western digital off futureshop last year
and they never mailed my rebate $$!!!

I took a sneak peak on the boxing day flyer that was deleted today and it says that there's a 250GB WD on sale for $129 after MIR unless my eyes were playing tricks on me lol.

I bought 5 drives form them last year, got all of the rebates back on the same day.

If you read my OP, you'll see I stated it was 115 after taxes and AR. So I don't know why you're correcting me.

Also, 8MB isn't really crucial if its just a storage drive. As for Maxtor, I haven't had a lot of problems with them, but recently been hearing about a lot more problems with their 200GB and up drives.

I hope I can get WD 120GB $69 AR or WD 250 GB $129 AR.

[re:load]

if you're gonna get the TD HDD, I suggest getting it soon. The MIR ends DEC 31!

[VenomZeus]

Is there no tax on futureshop items on boxing day?

Thanks!!!

Um, of course there would be. Why wouldn't there be?

More info on the "WD 250 GB $129 AR"?

Thanks!!!
Just wait a couple of days and you will find out more details.

[VenomZeus]

I remember some year where they didn't have tax? Or, sometimes they have deals where they don't have tax so that's why I'm asking.

If I could wait till Boxing day, I wouldn't be asking!

I'll get it if I can wake up early on Boxing Day.

td website is now listing the drive for $125 then minus $40

so with taxes its about $102.

I think that neither fs/bb can beat this deal..........

Agree. TD WD 200MB $84.97 after $40 MIR is far better than WD 160GB $89.99 after $75 MIR that you get on Boxing Day at those chain stores.

But doesn't shipping bring it close to the price of the 250 gb at FS at $129 AR? Although you'll probably pay a lot more in tax.

Tax is a killer...

269.99
310.50 after taxes
170.50 AR

So it breaks down to 0.682 per gig

TD is 115.43 AR = 0.577 per gig.

Only question is if you'll get the drive in time for the rebate now. Only reason I passed.

any maxtor deals around?

:confused:
