Didn't notice this before but thought it was a pretty good deal.

Was just checking some thing out at BB and noticed that on their checkout page there was a promotion of 50$ off 500$. Looks like it's automatic so there might be a chance of using the extra 20$ off 250$ coupon from visa. Happy shopping.

Funny thing they didn't exclude ALL consoles cos they are usually sold at a very small profit margin.

Is there any other console over 500 bucks?

I'm not sure if this deserves it's own thread (or whether or not I should post it in one of the existing Canon Powershot S2 threads) but here it is anyway.
Bestbuy.ca has the Powershot S2 on sale for $530 on their site and you also get a 'free' (after mail in rebate) printer. With this $50 off $500 online offer that brings it down to $480 with a 'free' printer.
all the info after the jump...

That's not bad, the cheapest You can get the S2 for was 422$ posted in another thread, but it involved price matching Dell.ca against Staples. This is much easier, plus you can probably use the Visa coupon to get another 20$ off.

The free printer is not bad either.

Combine console purchase with other cheap deals then you will eventually save that $50 on your console, but then I guess they assume most people won't do that and just purchase other non-deal items along with the console, minimizing their savings eventually and increasing profits for FS. That's why usually FS excludes a whole category of items when they have sales over smaller value of coupons.

i would've never wanted/bothered to think that deep....

it's FS, i'd care less what they do as long as we consumers get the deal we want :)
