Well, it's on the front page of Staples.ca (left side small banner).

It looks like a regular promotion in Summer now.
I did get a $100 credit back when I bought a PC last summer.

I got an email with this promotion this morning. It could be a good deal because most of the clearance desktop computers are as low as $377 and most are under $500. At these prices, getting a computer is equivalent to getting a high end ipod or Xbox game system. Also, most have 1 gb of RAM and they are in unopended boxes.

it's too bad it doesn't apply online... add.'al online coupons could potentially make some hot/warm deals....

Ouch., completely forgot about this potential treasure :(.

oh well.

I went and take a look, nothing really attractive. Cheapest laptop is some Acer for $500 (already -$100) and has lower spec than the cheapest Dell deal (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=472543). Cheapest desktop is some Compaq Celeron D for around $350.

yeah I went in today- nothing to be had at a good price. The Dell deals lately have been far better.

I went to the downtown Seymour Street Vancouver location and there are few bargains. I would say the cheapest desktop was the Compaq SR2150NX that was selling for $377 - $100 = $277.
It would be a good entry level computer but only have 512 RAM and Celeron Processor and Vista Home. Thre are 4 of these in sealed boxes.
