    I bought a T400 last week and now they are offering a 20% off coupon, before it was 15% off. I rememberd there is a 21 days price match policy so I called and should be getting the extra 5% back.

    This coupon ends today I believe so don't forget to get your money back ASAP if you got your laptop less then 3 weeks ago.

    I just tried this on a T500 but the checkout did not accept the code.

    Looks like I will keep waiting for a bit. Thanks for posting the code however.

    I tried pricing my T400 out with diferent coupons a couple weeks after purchasing. It always came out within a few dollars or more - even though the coupons appeared to be for a higher %. I assume the they manipulate some of the other prices when the higher % coupons appear. I think you have to hit it just right to get a cheaper quote.....obviously the price of computers constantly drops.....you just got to hit it at the right time....and obviously the price drop needs to be enough $$ to make it worth calling Lenovo. Good luck.

    Someone mentioned that there is a 21 day price match from receipt of the machine. I have been playing with different coupons and sites. They all come out about the same - meaning about equal to the sh/ee site price. My T400 is ordered; will arrive in about 10 days.

    GL on your coupons.

    I got almost a 20% discount just by calling in and asking. I got my initial questions answered and got the standard "anything else I can help you with?"
    -- "unless you offer phone in discounts, no" . well they aparently they did.
    give it a try - you never know.
