    Calm down sir... coupon or promo code I don't think there is anything right now. This laptop is cheaper right now than it has ever been, I remember when the initial price was so high... Now that was very expensive.

    Pretty sure the AW's do not go on promo or coupon code every often. And there is no need to be angered. If you have your mind set on an Alienware, which I hope you do some serious research before pulling the trigger on, the only way to get a reduced price is by calling up a rep and haggling or buy used/closed box via ebay, etc. As a premium brand, they will not move much and you should not expect a sweet deal as with others.

    I've been looking to buy an Alienware for over a year.

    I scoured the internet for AW coupons.

    The only time I got a promo/coupon was a free shipping code that i didn't even use.

    Trust me, finding a yeti would be easier.

    The M17 is pretty cheap even without a coupon. :)

    if you go to a university, you can get a student discount by using your university email. it's like 5%.

    if you're military, you get a discount as well.

    perhaps you can get both if you're both in the military and a student.

    AW rarely does coupons, and never promos. only coupons i can remember were for free shipping around the holiday season.

    oh yeah, there are programs for student and military discounts.

    Dont forget about diamond card program for xbox live members. If you play on xbox live you can order a diamond card for $7 and you get like $125 off your $2000 purchase :D

    I hate when you find out about deals after you made the purchase.

    I visited the alienware site several hours after I had placed my order and found the promo code CAPROMO for $200 off on the home page. I called up the rep and he gave me the discount no questions asked. Maybe I'll call for this one too. Nah I'm too lazy to buy the diamond card and then complain to the rep for my deal.
