[taro-chan]

Anyone remember last years midnight maddness? I do.

10c for paper, cheap USB keys, LCDs... I wonder if they have that this year. It was a madhouse at Staples.

[Absolute]

Staples have a big deal? Ahhh... thanks, I needed that laugh. :)

[scath]

I don't see the "Big Deals"

[TinyTank]

I don't see the "Big Deals"

paper for 10 cents

[Boardman]

IF the sale starts Wed. they'll be moving most of the stock of the sale items to the back room sometime today. Not to be negative but I have always have had t fight for ANY hot deal at Stooples to the point I can't be bothered giving them any business. As long as FS or BB can match I'll go there.

[zoro69]

The midnight madness thing had 400? sheets paper for .10 and I believe it was 64 crayons for .50, and a big box of coloured pencils $5 less $5 MIR. It was a Friday at the end of August as I remember waiting for the next hours deals beside where The Fabulous Thunderbirds were playing outside for Kingston Bluesfest.

[mahjongmaniac]

paper for 10 cents

that's too expensive! for me considering we could get the maxell dvds for $0.01 :D

[jgmaull]

are they likely to have any great deals on basic desktops or lcd monitors? Will this be advertised or do you just have to go in store, also, is it available online

[TinyTank]

:lol:

[reflex]

i need lots of hilroy paper hehe..unless there's a better quality out there? i bought some garbage at the dollar store once..man, it sucked

[Bordello]

i think u shud read his post again.
Am I missing something? Care to explain?

[Mystic_Champion]

It was 10 cents for 200 pack Hilroy paper during last year's midnight madness sale.

[Mystic_Champion]

are they likely to have any great deals on basic desktops or lcd monitors? Will this be advertised or do you just have to go in store, also, is it available onlineDuring last year's midnight madness sale. There were LCD monitors for sale, a Benq FP731 for $399.99 and a 19" Samsung montor for $549.99 IIRC. Can't remember if there were basic desktops on sale.

[isleepinadrawer]

does the paper usually sell out within the first hour? cuz i wont beable to make it until after work, booooo

[TinyTank]

Don't wrry. Last time i think the sale started at midnight?. If not, u'll be sure to get paper. Last time they probably had a couple of thousand packs.

[newatthis]

i don't like seeing low prices at staples :cheesygri

[Ch28]

Hope they have some good deals on USB keys so I can store my school work :D

[Casper]

OOS on the crayons...bummer :lol:

[longo]

Hope they have some good deals on USB keys so I can store my school work :D

Same here!

[Arrow]

I find Hilroy lined paper to be a little "rough"... makes a difference when you write a lot and go through a lot of paper. Are there any smoother papers out there? Media from Superstore seems to be better, but about 4 years ago, they too got rougher. Still better than Hilroy though.

[TigerEROS]

Here are the Store Locations in Toronto:

[carabunny]

i'm confused... so is tomorrow when it starts?

what's this midnight sale people are mentioning through the thread o.o; oos already? o.o

[gordholio]

Wow! Crayons on sale. Good if you're a 6 year old.

[cipher]

Rumor has it that the 1 cent Microsoft keyboard and mouse combo is coming back...NOT!!! :D

[langong]

Anyone remember last years midnight maddness? I do.

10c for paper, cheap USB keys, LCDs... I wonder if they have that this year. It was a madhouse at Staples.

:) I don't think I'll lineup this year.

[jtcb]

I hope there are deals for usb key and laser printer.

[canuck_fan]

thanks or the post.

[mahjongmaniac]

i need lots of hilroy paper hehe..unless there's a better quality out there?

well, not really "better in quality" but RCSS has the "media" -branded paper ... haven't bought any "Media"-braned products at RCSS b4, so i dunno about the quality.

(btw, i think "media" is the RCSS-exclusive brand now... no more Hilroy :| )

i bought some garbage at the dollar store once..man, it sucked

just remember NOT everything at the dollar store is cheap and good quality....
(caveat emptor... )

----------------------------------------

i don't like seeing low prices at staples :cheesygri

that's right... !!! :lol:

all RFDers like seeing high prices at stooples so we can get a PM out of it :twisted:

[Singh]

these arent BIG DEALS more like BACK 2 SCHOOL deals... please change the thread title
omg are you serious..

[sentinel]

There will be another midnight madness sale in the next couple weeks.

Staples carries a Hilroy-branded 24lb extra-strength lined paper. It's very smooth to write on. (it's very expensive when compared to this deal..b ut you can't put a price on comfort, can you ;))

[Chopramo]

it says that sale starts wednesday... is it instore only? or online as well? kinda confused here. when does the deals start and where (online or instore)

thanks for the deals

[Peter Griffin]

yes, the sale starts wednesday when the new flyer comes out...

Midnight Madness is August 21st (I'm 60% sure) but haven't seen any product for it yet so no heads-up about that.

Other deals tomorrow:
Refurb HP Media Center PC bundle 3.2GHz P4, 1Gb DDR2, 250Gb HDD, MCE2005 w/remote, Lightscribe DVD-RW, etc... with BenQ T705 and HP 3845 printer for $999.

Cisnet 160 - A64 3200+, 1Gb Ram, 160 HDD, DVD-RW with BenQ T705 and Lexmanrk AIO for $899

512Mb PC 2700 & PC 2100 RAM is down to $64

256Mb Sandisk Micro USB key for $29.99 (not too hot)

512Mb Lexar CF for $39.99

Norton Anti-Virus 2005 will be free after two $30 MIRs (one is only if you have a previous boxed version of anti-virus software w/CDs or manual.)

A 'Slide FX' mechanical pencil for $0.00 after $2.84 MIR ($0.45 for taxes)

Nothing 'great' but the media center isn't all that bad of a deal IMHO

[jdewit]

i bought some garbage at the dollar store once..man, it sucked


You paid a dollar for garbage? Gosh, you can take mine for free.

hey, thx 4 the info. :)

and btw, just a note that the HP media center u posted is *refurbished*.... not saying that's bad, but who doesn't want a new 1 instead :rolleyes:
(also, u might be able to get a better desktop deal off of Dell when they have the back2school sale)

and i dunno about getting a lightscribe DVD-RW... :|

Laptop RAM? if so, good deal? can i find PC2700 cheaper elsewhere? :D

[isleepinadrawer]

im excited to go get paper!!!! w00000t

[Bordello]

For the paper, the flyer said that there's only 400 per store, and a limit of 8 per customer. That's not a lot of stock.

[Eternity]

No it's regular desktop RAM

So did any get any of this paper or is it OOS???

[mintcoffee]

I just picked up 8 packs of the paper. There's only 100 sheets per pack.. so it's not necessarily a HOT deal.

Staples also had $20 off $100 instore coupons for the months Oct-Jan ($20 off a month). Technically, you should get them with a minimum of $50 purchase, however, I got them with my $0.92 cent purchase.

[GerryDavid]

and i dunno about getting a lightscribe DVD-RW... :|

Whats wrong with a lightscribe dvd? It would be cool to burn a design into the top of a dvd if I wanted. :0) To bad they take forever to finish, from what I hear.

[recordman]

How did/do you get these $20 off $100 coupons?

that's what i meant (was thinking)...

i'd rather get some cd/dvd labels which take 2 mins to make... :razz:

[mintcoffee]

The cashier just handed them to me.. along with a dividend's card application :) There should be a stack beside the cash register. I went to the Staples at King and Yonge.

They had these last year too.

I need to go get some.

[Bordello]

To the people that already bought the paper, how's the brightness? I've seen Hilroy paper that are pretty white, and another that's dull and greyed out. I have a feeling this is the latter.

[isleepinadrawer]

i just got some, it looked pretty good...although it doesnt bear the hilroy logo, they were all stacked in hilroy boxes

[StuartM]

does anyone know what the rest of the deals are? Or is it only paper and crayons and RAM?

Cheers

[GerryDavid]

I dont trust cd labels. I hear the glue they use really shorten the life of your cd and if the label comes off in the machine, it can really screw up the drive. Plus ive never been able to center the picture over the label using the software they gave me.

But ive also heard that the acids in markers can cause the cds life to be shorter as well.

I probably woudlnt use a lightscribe for every cd I make, just for special ones to give to others. partly for the cost of it and partly cuz of the time, mostly cuz I hear the media is pretty expensive compared to the other. But its cool for an option.

lol... they have that $20off100 coupon book again..? ... nice! :)

i'm surprised to hear that u got the book w/ a <$1 purchase b/c like u said u were supposed to pay up $50+ to get it :twisted: ... oh well, its their loss :razz:
(and i believe last yr it was the same too)

yes, according to DD (or so i've heard), the cd/dvd labels *does* seem to somehow shorten the life span of the disc....

But ive also heard that the acids in markers can cause the cds life to be shorter as well.

err... ^ i definitely haven't heard of that b4.... :confused:

well, if i'm gonna get a lightscribe, it certainly won't be anytime soon... ;)

(not to mention that lightscribe media is HELL $$$ right now!)

[natalienicole]
