So Best buy had a $379 Laptop for the BF sale, Not suppose to be avaiable Online to buy in store only... Yet I find out of a back way to get the website to place the order...They Charge My CC and I Get the Conformation Email....
Now this Morning I get an email telling me that the order had been cancelled and my CC would be refunded...(always slower to give the money back than to take it out of your account)
Well SHIT...
So i call up the Local best buy to see if they have any left and the dude just starts laughing and says no... Oddly I reconized that laugh... it was my good friend from Jr High/H.S He told me that they were sold out of the $379 Laptop BUT.... they had a $579 Laptop that had sold out but some people had not redeemed their vouchers if they werent claimed by 11:30am they would go back on sale..
So sure enuff I was there at 11:28am and got me a new Laptop! PBJ
Here are the specs...
