Target Drops Olevia Blu-ray Player to $150

Sean Fallon — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 13:45:00 EST

Hey, $150 for a Blu-ray player is hard to pass up—even if the company that makes it kinda sucks (Olevia filed for bankruptcy this summer actually).

Besides, there is only a few days left until Christmas and chances are you still have not completed all of your holiday shopping yet. If you are desperate for a last-minute deal, the players should be available at Target starting on Sunday for a limited time.

Gadget Deals of the Day: Up to 20% Off Game Consoles, 3-for-2 Used Games

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 16:15:00 EST

Dell's got some killer coupons for you guys today. With a code, you can snag 20% off videogame consoles with free shipping. That makes for a $320 PS3 or an Xbox360 Pro bundle for $240.

Links to the individual game consoles can be found here, and the code is "ZCFLR1BTX5Q1D$". But that's not all, because Dell's also offering up to 20% off of GPS units, MP3 players, and a charitable $700 off the Sony Bravia 52" 1080p LCD. The console deals all expire on December 17th or when the allotted number of units is sold, and the other electronics expire a day later.

Gamestop has a deal on used games— buy 2, get a third free— with the coupon "B2G1FREE", which'll help you put together a library for that new hardware you just bought from Dell. [DealNews]

Dealzmodo: Xbox 360 Pro with Three Games for $284 Shipped Today Only

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 12:00:00 EST

Well, look at what we have here. Dell is selling the Xbox 360 Pro (with the 60GB hard drive), along with Lego Indiana Jones, Kung Fu Panda, and Madden NFL '09 for the one-day-only price of $284.05. The system normally retails for $299 alone, so you better believe this is a Dealzmodo.

Head over to Dell's site, where the bundle is available for an already noteworthy $299, and then use the coupon code TP5NV0VMFJ9BCZ at checkout, which'll give you another 5% off. This deal expires presumably at midnight, so you bargain-hunters should jump on it as quick as you can. [TechDealDigger]

Saturday HDTV Dealzmodo Roundup

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 17:15:00 EST

I stumbled across a few deals on HDTVs today, so I thought I'd be a nice guy and group them all up for you. First up is a deal from Amazon: buy any qualifying Samsung TV along with this Samsung Blu-Ray player and get $200 off, which means Amazon is essentially paying you four bucks to take the $196 Blu-Ray player off their hands.

You can also get a 42" Panasonic VIERA plasma HDTV for only $660, which is a good hundred dollars off its general retail price. It's packed with three HDMI inputs, an SD slot, and a 15,000:1 contrast ratio.

Or, if you can't get enough Samsung, you can grab the Samsung 40" 1080p LCD for only $800 from 6th Ave Electronics, which puts it more than $150 lower than what you'd find elsewhere. It's got a 20,000:1 contrast ratio and a 5 ms response rate. [DealNews]

Target's Black Friday Ad Leaked!

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 20:00:00 EST

Oh my god, you guys. There's this thing called "Black Friday," and it's some kind of shopping day, right? And everything, everywhere, is cheap! You have to fistfight young mothers to get at the deals, but it's totally worth it. And Target, everyone's favorite friendlier version of Walmart, leaked some deals of their own. They've got an external 750GB USB 2.0 drive from WD for (puzzlingly) $88.88, an 8GB iPod nano with a $15 gift card for $145. Even more highlights after the jump.

My picks:

- Super Mario Bros. DS package: $150
- Garmin nuvi 200W GPS: $120
- Westinghouse 26" HDTV: $300
- Guitar Hero World Tour (Guitar Kit) for Wii: $60
- and of course, the Hello Kitty Hide 'N Fun Elite Indoor Play Tent is on sale for only $14 (!!!!) [GottaDeal, thanks Carrie!]

Dealzmodo: MSI Wind Now $350 at Best Buy

Mark Wilson — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 11:45:00 EST

Here's a fantastic deal that appears to be a permanent price reduction. The MSI Wind, which we reviewed and like a lot, recently arrived at Best Buy for $399. Not bad. But now the price has been dropped down to $350. Even with the Wind U120 hitting this December, the original Wind is a very nice machine (10" screen, XP, 1.6GHz Atom), especially with the recent firmware performance boost. [Best Buy via OhGizmo!]

Dealzmodo: 2 Sharp 46" AQUOS HDTVs for $1999

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 19:00:00 EDT

Costco, in a fit of either economic optimism or pessimism, is selling not one but two Sharp AQUOS 46" HDTVs for just $1999 with $99 shipping. That's a solid $200 below anything PriceGrabber could find for me, and more than $350 below Amazon. Sure, two giant LCDs might be seen as a little excessive, but even the super wealthy are allowed to be a little thrifty. The 1080p set features a 4ms response time and is only 3 3/4" thick, and reviews have been positive. It's a pretty stunning deal if for some reason you're in the market for multiple HDTVs. [TechDealDigger]

Dealzmodo: Sharp AQUOS 32" 1080p LCD for $699 Shipped

Dan Nosowitz — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 20:00:00 EDT

6th Avenue Electronics has the Sharp AQUOS 32" 1080p HDTV for $699, including shipping, with a coupon. It's the lowest price we've seen for this LCD by about $100, and it's a pretty well-reviewed line. This one features a 6ms response time and dual HDMI inputs. [DealNews]

Dealzmodo: Xbox Live Vision Bundle At $49

Jason Chen — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 20:00:00 EDT

Best Buy and Gamestop are discounting the remainder of their stock of Xbox Live Vision Bundles to $49 in order to clear them out for the new Chatpad Live Bundle that's coming soon. If you still don't have a camera for Xbox Live, this is a fantastic deal to get that, 12 months of Xbox Live, two XBLA games and 200 Microsoft points. Amazon used to have this bundle for about $55-$59ish, this es muy bueno. You'll need to roll down to your local BB or Gamestop to get in on the deal, so take a shower and put on some pants.

Eee PC 1000H Price Drops Even Lower; $450 on Amazon, $360 on MWave

Elaine Chow — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 22:30:59 EDT

In case Asus' $100 price drop in July just wasn't enough to make up your mind on whether to spring for a new Eee PC 1000H, the mini-marvel's gotten even cheaper now. Amazon is selling an 80GB, XP-equipped 1000H for just $450. Mwave also has several in stock for either $450 (while supplies last) or, if you're willing to go for an open box product, an almost criminal $359. [Amazon and mwave via Liliputing]

Dealzmodo: TiVo HD For $179 With Free Shipping

Christopher Mascari — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 18:30:00 EDT

TiVo's got a great web special on "factory-renewed" TiVo HDs for $179 with free shipping. Sure, these refurbished units usually end breaking after a few days, but no need to worry it still has TiVo's regular warranty. [TiVo via TiVo Blog]

Free AT&T iPhone Wi-Fi Is Officially Back

Jason Chen — Thu, 08 May 2008 11:55:00 EDT

The flip floppery AT&T iPhone Wi-Fi access has finally been made official, with AT&T adding a note on their own iPhone plan page that reflects the free Wi-Fi. That's 17,000 Wi-Fi hotspots, some of which are at Starbucks, some of which are at a Barnes and Noble. Finally, now with wireless access, you've got something to read at Barnes and Noble. [AT&T]

Unlimited International Skyping For $9.95 a Month From the US/Canada to 34 Countries

Jason Chen — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 15:00:00 EDT

Skype's latest $9.95 international subscription plan seems fantastic if you're calling relatives or friends in other countries really often. Just pay $9.95 a month and you'll be able to ring up landlines in one of 34 countries (cellphones are only supported in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, the US and Canada), and if you buy three months' worth of credit before June 1, you'll get one month for free. Super useful for when you've got older folks in other countries who don't really know how to use a computer to Skype with. Or if you don't want them to see over video chat that you've gained some weight. [Skype]

Question of the Day: What's the Best Hard Drive Deal You Can Find?

Jason Chen — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 16:20:58 EST

This is a bit of a self-serving question of the day, but here's something for readers to participate in. What's the best hard drive deal you can find right now? We're talking preferably internal and SATA, but if you've got a hot Swedish deal for an external USB drive, we'd love to hear about that too. Help out your fellow Giz readers and tell them where to get cheap, yet functional, storage.

Dealzmodo: Refurbished TiVo HD $199

Jason Chen — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:50:27 EST

The TiVo HD hasn't even been available for a year, but you can get your hands on a refurbished one for just $199. Head on over to the site before April 2 and you'll be able to grab one at the low, pre-used price as long as you purchase 1 year of TiVo service at checkout. The whole thing will be ($199 + $129 + tax + shipping) north of 300 bones, but it's still a pretty sweet deal. [TiVo]

Dealzmodo: DivX Pro Free For a Limited Time

Jason Chen — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 19:10:01 EST

We love watching DivX, but what if you want to create DivX? You'd normally have to pony up for the DivX Pro pack to let you encode your favorite movies into our favorite format, but for a limited time you can download DivX Pro for free. Think of it as an early Xmas present to get more people creating content in their format. Wait, I see what they're doing! [DivX via Wal-You via Cyber Net News]

Dealzmodo: 30GB Black and White Zunes for $84

Jason Chen — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 14:59:26 EST

Itching to get in on the Zune 2.0 action? Woot's got both black and white 30GB Zunes for just $84.99. Yez, these Zunes are refurbished, but if you're not too picky about using something some stranger's handled, you can save a few bucks. And if you're a fan of the brown Zune, like we are, Amazon has those for $89. [Woot via Amazon]
