    Hey everyone... I'm from Florida, and I also happen to be purchasing my first laptop. I'm going with the Dell Inspiron 9300. Nevertheless, I'm customizing it to my liking, and then I'm trying to enter that 40% off code, but its not working. Everytime I enter it, it basically just refreshes the page (and it continues saying the 20% off) and doesnt show why the code won't work. Any ideas/help? :confused:

    Thanks in advance

    the coupon has expired. It expired sometime this morning. There is two other coupons that they are offering. You can find the other two on the following site:
    http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=2482

    You might want to wait until the next batch of coupons is issued which should be in the next few days. Reason being, is that the coupons that are out now is the same coupon that they have offered all summer. Dell might have something better next week, or it might be next month.

    i seriously doubt it will be soon. I could be wrong though. This is the best coupon that they have had all summer, so i really don't expect another one till September. Dell doesn't give any notice about when they will release the hot coupons. It is a waiting game....

    and MrPhidalgo, the 40% in that link already expired, but the other two are still valid.
