    I was going to buy the W530 on Saturday, but the eCoupon I was using expired on Wednesday. Now I have no clue when there'll be another ecoupon for the W530. Initially I thought they'd have one Friday, then Monday, now I'm hoping tomorrow, but I see they've got some on until next Wednesday, making me think I'll have to wait until at least then to get it.

    Maybee should start a thread for eCoupons. Maybe we can figure out patterns or something they use to release them, and we can keep track of what ones are active on what models, and for how long. I just wish I knew when the next one would come out. I want to get this set up for college before I have to actually go to college.

    Of course there will be more eCoupons but some of them are unique.

    Just use the B&N discount for now since you are in a hurry.

    redflagdeals.com has a long thread with Lenovo-dedicated coupon codes for Canadians.
