We know you're thinking an extra day in February is just The Man's way of making you put in extra hours at the office, but it's also a handy excuse for big box stores to put things on sale.
Best Buy doesn't have much other than the Vaio/Inspiron sale from three weeks ago and a bogus "$700 Off" home theater package that requires a $200 Geek Squad buy-in to save money on a TV that's already on sale elsewhere. Circuit City, on the other hand, has a handful of electronics deals we like... such as a Philips DVD Player (non-HD, no-Blu) going for only $30... or $50, if you're lazy and don't mail in the rebate. They've also knocked 33% off the price of the Garmin c340 StreetPilot GPS, or there's the TomTom ONE going for $167... down eighty bucks from normal.
CC's desktop computer bundles and laptop sales are pretty joke-worthy ($30 off a $1000+ comput
er just doesn't do it for us), but they are offering free 1GB memory cards with certain digital cameras, and some truly great deals on DV camcorders. We particularly like the $270 they chopped from the price of the Canon HV20 HD Camcorder, putting it down to $730. Not bad for a best-in-class device. And that's how you discount something.
Speaking of which, you can get 20% Off your SquareTrade warranty for any of these things (or anything else) from now through March 2nd... and that's on prices that were already about half what Circuit City would charge you. That includes Accidental Damage coverage, too, if you want it.
Just use Coupon Code: MARCHSALE on our checkout page. And do it while you're at work, too, just to stick it to The Man. He deserves it.
