Default Hardware/software Specials You've Spotted

This thread is for hardware bargains/sales/specials that you've come across that you'd like to share with others. If someone is having a clearance or similar and the prices are insanely cheap, here's the place to post them.


No chat, specials only!

Please either:

Include the end date

of the sale or catalogue

OR

Post a link

if it's on the web.

Items without a link or expiry date will be deleted.

Prize give aways are not allowed, nor are eBay auctions.

We know about Zazz, Catch of the Day etc. already, so please don't post what they have every day!


Thanks

Don't know if this has being posted but if you have a "Co-op Bookshop" membership you can get up to 12% off the Apple Store price.

I had a quick look at the base Uni body Macbook 2.0 with the discount and the price is $1978.90.

Better then the straight education discount.

Dolphin Peripherals noise isolating earphones

$10 at Woolworths/Safeway

Too much bass but a good set to keep in the drawer for emergencies. Would be fine for audio books, podcasts etc. Three sets of earbuds.
