    I planning on getting a T500, but I just missed the sale window (again).

    However there's still a 5% discount now through Monday (I believe it was 20% on the last sale).

    Should I wait for another sale... will it be more than 2 weeks?

    yes you should wait, unless you need it urgently but tbh i wouldnt buy anything from the website without a 15% discount at least...
    the sale afaik is usually once every 3-4 wks for 48hrs

    Just a word of advice. Next time you see a great deal and need some time to think about it, create a quote. This locks in your price for 30 days regardless of the current deals/prices.

    Yes, you should wait. Lenovo has a 15% sale pretty much every other week, from what I've noticed. If you can get ahold of the CPP accesscode [which I can't post on the forum], you can get an even better deal.
