CompUSA.com - $20 back with $200 purchase using Paypal
When you checkout with Paypal as the payment method, you get a $20 refund deposited to your Paypal account 6-8 weeks after making a single online purchase of $200 or more.

You can still use a credit card with Paypal payments. However note that special benefits you would normally get when buying at stores, such as some American Express customers which automatically receive an extra year warranty added to electronics purchases, will not be available when you use Paypal.

Example of a great deal:
- EVGA Geforce 9800GTX 512MB Graphics Card for $270 and qualifies for $20 back when paying with Paypal. Most other stores sell it for around $300. Your PC needs a good quality power supply to use this power hungry graphics card, such as a Corsair 520HX.
CompUSA.com was purchased by TigerDirect recently. TigerDirect had a poor record of fulfilling rebates, so if you find products on their site with an available rebate, ensure it is a manufacturer's rebate and not a Tigerdirect rebate.

- Additional Xdock Wireless Receiver for $50.
Computer Parts:
- Creative Fatal1ty Laser Mouse for $20

Newegg.com - great deals today
- Trendnet 2-port KVM Switch for $25 with coupon EMCAFAHAK and after shipping fee, and a $10 mail-in rebate is available ($15 after rebate). For sharing a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and VGA video with 2 computers. Includes cables.
- Acer 19" Widescreen LCD Monitor for $160 with coupon EMCAFAHBF . Has VGA & DVI inputs, and includes VGA and DVI cables. This is a great deal on a great quality monitor.

Be aware that some laptop computers are limited to 3GB of memory, even some brand new laptops. If that is the case, installing 4GB of memory would leave you with 3GB of usable memory, which is still more than plenty for most applications.

Some of these deals will probably expire today, especially the Samsung 52" LCD, KVM Switch, 2GB MicroSD Card, and 19" Monitor.

Update (5/7): As expected, the KVM Switch, Samsung 52" LCD, 2GB MicroSD Card are sold out. Also the 530-Watt power supply and 4GB Flash Drive are sold out.

Amazon.com - Universal Remote Control with RF-to-IR for $30
(expired: 3/9)

One For All 9910 Learning 8-Device Remote Control with RF to IR base station for $30 with free shipping.

The RF base station has IR Blasters for relaying programmed IR signals to the devices which don't have line-of-sight, such as Receivers, DVD players, and cable boxes which may be pass� to leave in plain view.

Programming a cheap remote like this can be a bit of an effort, certainly more difficult than a Logitech Harmony remote, but it does have great reviews and a great price for a remote meant for hiding your electronics. However, this product only comes with a 90 day warranty. If you do not need to hide your electronics out of sight, buying a universal remote control from a more reputable brand is recommended.

Costco.com - 42" 1080p LCD HDTV for $940, 46" for $1150

- Sceptre 46" 1080p LCD HDTV for $1000 plus $150 shipping ($1150).
Seems like a great deal with very good specs and prices, however Sceptre is not known to make excellent quality HDTVs. Some reviews are good, some are not so good. A former employee of our local Costco told us Sceptre HDTVs were returned more than other HDTVs for whatever reason.
