CompUSA.com: 20% off MP3 players ... includes iPods?
----------------------------------------------------
Matched on subscription to vendor "CompUSA.com"

CompUSA.com takes 20% off MP3 players via coupon code
"BEADS2". Although iPods are listed as excluded, this coupon
code does currently work on iPods. (Orders might later be
canceled.) After coupon and if valid, the iPod mini costs
$200, HP iPod 40GB costs $319.99, iPod photo 40GB costs
$399.99, and iPod photo 60GB costs $479.99.

----------------------------------------------------

So:
60GB Photo iPod = $600 (570 with educational pricing) -> 480 (510 after tax)
40GB Photo iPod = $500 (470 with educational pricing) -> 400 (425 after tax)
40GB iPod = $400 (370 with educational pricing) -> 320 (340 after tax)
20GB iPod = $300 (270 with educational pricing) -> 240 (255 after tax)

I um, going for this. If it get's canceled, so be it. Otherwise, my iPod's battery is dying (it's been dying on me as I walk to classes. early morning logic for throwing away $425 dollars. Yes, I'm getting the 40GB Photo iPod. When else am I going to be able to get a $75 dollar off an iPod. $100 if you ignore the tax....

[edit] Alas~ order was canceled. Oh well... =^.^=
