    Limit one per household makes it tough to completely upgrade a laptop.

    ^^
    Are rebates not normally 1 per household?
    Depends on the product manfu. I suppose.

    Do you have a family member that could order from their addy?

    So it's really $66 + tax for a pair ($48 + $48 - $30). Not bad, but similar deals can be found. I guess if you only need one then it's a great deal. But if you want a pair newegg has sold 2x4GB laptop DDR3 for $65-$70 frequently WITHOUT rebate. So don't fret too much people. I don't have a Fry's anywhere around me either. Closest one is probably 1000 miles away, lol.

    Well I only posted it as $47.99 less $30 MIR, @ $17.99 after rebate..but you did the math...

    Is still a decent deal if you want it and have a store nearby.. & that is why I indicated "store pickup only"

    I agree, wasn't trying to step on any toes. Appreciate your deal postings as always Cin'! :)

    Still a great deal, just trying to appease the masses of their loss of a bargain. :)
