Since "where can I find coupons for the Dell Outlet?" seems to be a common question in the Dell Outlet thread as well as the Deals forum, I thought I'd share what how I get them. Basically I have five ways:
1) Google
Google is the answer for most any questions isn't it? If you can't find a coupon just google it. You might wish to set a the date in the advanced search to search only the past week to avoid old coupons.2) Deal Websites
Most likely Google's search results will return mostly deal websites. So to save you some time here are the websites that I find post coupons the most.3) Dell Outlet on Twitter
Another likely thing to turn up in the search results is Dell Outlet on Twitter. This is the official Twitter of the Dell Outlet and often posts coupons. The bad news is it often goes weeks without being updated. LINK4) Dell Outlet Page
Believe it or not sometimes finding coupons is as simple as checking out the Dell Outlet homepage. On the far right you'll see a price tag with "$" on it. Scroll over it to choose between home coupons and business coupons. (assuming either is currently available) LINK5) Email
The last way is to subscribe to the Dell Outlet Email Updates. If you do you will receive one time use coupons on a regular basis. This is were most of the coupons that are posted here come from.
I hope this will help someone out, and they'll find the notebook they've been looking for at the price they've been looking for. If you know another way to get coupons I didn't list here, by all means please share!
EDIT: One final last resort suggest is eBay, a one time use coupon can often be picked up for a few bucks, which considering it could save you several hundred it might be worth it.

The reason we get this question so much is because if you Google "Dell Outlet Coupons" we're the second result and it points to this thread:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=231526
So people google it, arrive there, and don't find the exact answer they want so ask it again.
Maybe this thread will become a higher result hey
Dear Google, if you could place this thread high in the results that'd be great... -
EDIT: I forgot Google lets you rank results now. Maybe this thread could move up the list with a little help. -
Thanks Christoper.
I have been trying many of the ways you have suggested at getting coupons for the last couple months but I can't seem to get any one time use coupons that way.
I check the twitter link, which has been dormant since mid December, all the other deal sites, signed up for Dell's emails and search Google often and still no luck.
One of the main challenges is when a dated multi use coupon comes up. All the slickdeals/fatwallet ebayers rush to the site, especially the outlet, snatching up all the computers to resell. I've tried the last few deals and it's a real pain to get one. Refreshing the page for hours hoping one will pop up and then entering the security string fast enough to hold it.
That's why I was hoping someone would have a 1 time use coupon they didn't need, so I don't have to fight the reseller hoards. I have a 7 year old desktop and want to replace it but we're on a budget. I appreciate the info and I'll try and stay hopeful, thanks. -
I feel your pain though, I watched the Outlet daily for months and the good system would always be gone by the time I got there with a coupon. I was getting really tired of a now 8 year old laptop. (7 then) The way I finally ended up getting one was buying one off eBay with the 30% cashback and 10% off coupon. But that seems to have dried up now.
The last few months have been really good for coupons actually. Back before Christmas there were new coupons every few days. I never checked to see how long they lasted though. I'm really quite surprised the 15% off latitude coupon is still good being good month old now.
Good luck. -
Well what do you know, I scored a coupon today and bought a desktop, guess it was my time to get one....got lucky. Seems there is a new crop of one time use coupons emailed out with a 1/14 exp date.
If anyone has a spare or two, please PM me. I have a few friends who need one. One of them is nfsync, who is on this board...thanks! -
There is also a site called e-junkie that sells coupons. I usually have about 5 dell outlet coupons, because I have like 5 email addresses signed up to get them... LOL
It comes in handy when they do the 15% 20% or 25% random thing, because I usually end up with some 20%'s and sometimes 25%. -
Can't find one for m4400

@Jason
Hmm e-junkie. I'll keep that in mind. I mentioned in the other thread about signing up half a dozen or so. Haven't done it yet though. -
