I just ordered a laptop cart from staples. It was about $50, but theres a coupon for it for $20 off. If you bring that $30 order above $50, you can use the father's day $20 off $50, too! Anyway, here's what I got:

Laptop cart: #394279 (1)
Grip Strips: #412219-66 (2)

Subtotal: $70.94

$20 off laptop cart: 86835
$20 off $50: 90523

Grand total: $30.94

Oh yeah, If you haven't used it yet, you can get a free box of paper (2,500 sheets) with a $50 order, too.

Use coupon number 90297 with item number 487108.

Anyway, I thought it was a pretty nice deal for a cool looking laptop cart.

OK, don't laugh, but when I think of a cart I think of a shopping cart type thing. I am clearly missing something here, please expain.

This is an excellent deal. Thank you. I just paid $10.57 for the laptop cart.

I added item 394279: Computer cart +$49.98
item SAN64517: Pencil +$00.59
Coupon/Instant Rebate 86835/90523 -$40.00
New Total = $10.57
I added the pencil to bring the total to $50.00 for free shipping and to use the $20 off $50 rebate.

Y'all, I'm starting to feel kind of bad for Staples. Don't they know we're out here taking advantage of their generosity? Oh well.

I was genuinely looking for a laptop stand and found that one on staples. Then I remembered that they had a father's day special in an email they sent to me, so....Anyway, they got lots of money...lots more than me, at least. they even got the staples center downtown. If they start hurting from these deals, i'm sure they're gonna pull all the coupons. Till then, if they send me a coupon, i'm gonna use it!

FYI

I placed another order yesterday,(Sunday) at Staples and asked if code #90479 was good. That code has been posted as $39.99 off of a $75 purchase. Some say it's good.

I was told this code is for a free attache'.

I asked if it was available, and added it to my order. I don't know the SKU # of the attache' since the order taker put it in.

There are different ones.

I'll have enough if this keeps going for my whole family to have a new attache'.

Anyone get the free paper along with the cart? I couldn't get it to work :-(

BTW, I found a pack of rubberbands for 24 cents...it's item PLY12385. that's a 35 cent savings over the pencils!!!

Mine was canceled too. Staples is really starting to get very annoying. I tried placing the order again with a different 20 off 50 coupon (#90202) and the rubberbands. Maybe this one will work. I'll let you know.

no luck this time either...
Thank you for shopping at Staples.com,

We were unable to apply coupon code 90202 to your order for the
following reason:

Other coupon offer states "Not valid with any other offer".

I hate staples......

my order got rejected too... got the following message:

Recently some Dividend coupons that were only valid for Staples Dividend
customers were posted on the Internet. These coupons are only valid for
registered Dividend Customers. If you are a registered Dividends
customer and believe your order should not have been cancelled, please
call us at the number below.

blah blah blah... just a **** load of bs....

I just received mine today. It is pretty sturdy and can also be used as a table.
In order to get this deal, you have to actually call them up and specify all the codes. It's a pretty quick process and they give you no hastle.

Yeah, i'm using my laptop on it right now. It was tough to put together. I found out I messed up on step 1 and had to take the whole thing apart and put it back together again.
cool stuff, though.
