heres a pic from the flyer

Are we sure this deal lasts till 12/18 ? I'm currently swamped with finals and wouldnt be able to make it down to Best Buy till the 14th.
Haha if this bad boy is only $99 then I am definitely jumping on this.

Yes, i have the flyer right here.

I just paid $299 on Thursday night...think they will let me return and repurchase? Not sure what their policies are...
Edit....yup, they refunded $200+tax to my AMEX...SWEET!

I returned mine last month with no problems, not even a restocking fee, after a week of use. Buy it again and return other with the older receipt if they give you problems.

is this for all best buys im in CA and not seeing it online anywhere.... **** for that price I might just have to get another one.... Dell never sent in my upgrade paperwork to at&t so I can still get this with an update so sick.... do they have the red ones there or just the black and the white ones....

Doesn't show online because the sale starts tomorrow

WOW. Now THATS a STEAL! Give me my $500 back!

Can you please scan and post the flyer in full?

Best Buy has a guarantee on their price I believe. You should be refunded the difference without having to.return.

It starts today in Memphis Tn as well. They were handing out a single sheet flyer yesterday. Trying to decide between it and the Captivate.

Can anyone share more info on this? I check BestBuy online weekly ad and see nothing of this sort. Love to get one for my wife too at this price.
* EDIT *
I just called my best buy today (Sunday - 12/12) and they said that price was no longer available today. A live person told me it was for Friday and Saturday only??!! :-(
* EDIT #2 *
Called again, same store but asked for mobile dept. They checked confirmed this is true. $99. Nation wide sale. Price adjusted my and got another one for my wife. Cant be happier. Thanks for the post!!!

$99.99 Dell Streak
Checked ad this morning and nothing in it. Checked ATT phones for sell at Best Buy and on the item page it was $99.99. Called at 8:35 AM and talked to them. They said print out info and bring it in and they would match the price. I just paid $$379.00 for Dell Streak and OtterBox Commuter Friday 10 Dec 2010 and Sunday at 11:30 AM I got $214.00 back. Dell Streak final Cost $99.99 plus Tax. Not a bad deal. Dayton Ohio.

300 USD unlocked would be really really nice.
they should let you activate the phone at home like the iPhone 2G,

confirmation $99
I can confirm price is $99 now. I am in Denver. I purchased mine last tuesday at the 299 price. Today I looked in the ad for this week and it wasnt in there but did show online for $99 and in the store for $99. got a credit as that is Bestbuy's policy
Lovin the streak even more now that it only cost me $100 bucks!

Wish I had an upgrade available :-(

This might bring my 32gb tab down to $200. I think I'll have to try just for some good clean fun.

None of the Staples in my area have the GT in stock, with no idea when they might be getting any in.

thanks dmoney94, just grabbed one at my local staples that's the last one they had .
unfortunately its the locked bootloader one, now i am deliberating wether to keep it or return it , i already have an unlocked bootloader one which is still within the return period, decisions decisions .

Best Buy. Long story but they really wanted me to buy a tablet there. Employees came from all around with discounts for me at check out. There was an actual line of employees with printed skews in their hands, each one adding a new discount. I was still in disbelief when I got home. Like I said, Just for fun I might stop by and have a go. I'm sure they need some kind of entertainment around there.
Oh yeah, the funny part was when the all got through with their discounts another guy walked up typed something in, while another dropped his jaw and said, "Did you just give him a $100 off without a managers aproval, how did you do that?" He just smiled and walked away. Everyone gets luck once in a while.

Will bb reimburse 100 to price match if you already purchased and are within 14 day return period?

Can you scan your receipt from best buy ,so some of who not lucky can used as proof of purchase..thanks![...QUOTE=T120ted;15826374]Best Buy.

Best buy said they dont price match coupons.

Thank you so much for this post, I just got back from Staples with a 16gb Tab. The tech guy in the store said they got 3 of them in yesterday and 1 person bought one late last night and the 2nd one was purchased 5 minutes before me and I got the last one. While he and I were talking 2 more people walked up asking for them and were told they were sold out. He said each store only got 2 or 3 of them.
They did have the Xoom, Playbook and Iconia in stock. The Iconia was quite tempting for $299!!! I also wouldn't have minded getting a Xoom for $399 to goof off with. This new Tab is for my son as I already have one myself. I wish they had the 32gb versions in the store but they said that model is only available online. Staples is also running a special for 15% off any tablet accessories when purchasing a tablet but they no Tab accessories in stock yet. The guy said they haven't received their end cap for the Tab which usually comes with the accessories shipment. He said he would honor the 15% offer once they receive their accessories so I'm going to check back periodically. Checking stock on their website shows other stores in the area have Tabs as well but the guy said it can take up to 24 hours for the online stock checker to update so with the rush of buyers looking for them with the coupon deal I suspect they'll all be gone very quickly. FYI, they are selling the metallic gray version (not the white). The website doesn't give any indication of color...

So how much did you exactly pay for the 16gb SGT??

Depending on your tax, I got mine for $430 after tax and coupon.

Too bad they don't stock the 32GB in any of their stores...
I wonder if they will honor this coupon over the phone to order a 32GB?? Guess I'll be trying here shortly

they do honor in store...

Tried a few Staples in DC metro area. Some don't have any. One store that do have in stock can't make the coupon work. Finally found one store that the manager knows about the coupon and offered to order one for me from Kiosk and pay at the register to use the coupon w/o any problem. I'll pick the tab up this Firday. $420 with tax.

Well, I was on a fence because of luck of Netflix. But now Netflix is sorted out and I've got 16Gb for 400 bucks plus tax from staples.

Got mine from staples 424.99 16gb when to four stores and the last store had 3 left also most stores don't have them on display

I picked up my Galaxy 10.1 at Staples today. I noticed that they didn't have any on display, but there were Xooms, Acers, Blackberries, etc. When I asked them why, they said that yesterday somebody tried to walk off with the display model, so they took it off display. Seems to me that he could have tried to walk off with any of them, so why remove just one?
Anyway, another guy said they had gotten their shipment in on Sunday (3 days ago), and I was the first to buy one. He said the store is getting many returns on tablets, because people buy them thinking they are laptops -- minus the keyboards. I assured him that I was familiar with the android system, owning a rooted Nook.
I am happy with the Samsung so far, but Honeycomb is a little bigger learning curve over Android 2.3. But my buddy at work has a Xoom, so I'll be picking his brain over the next couple of weeks.

What do you mean, "Netflix is sorted out?" Can Netflix be played on my Samsung? (Forgive me, I'm a Honeycomb newbie).

Nexus 7 20% Off Office Max

20% off coupon
This is Office Max in-store coupon for 20% off; it includes tablets and eReaders. Of course, Office Max may not be near everyone, but you can try price matching with Staples, Office Depot, Best Buy in-store.
If in-store doesn't work, you can always try through phone order or online chat. I got the 32gb one for $215+tax through Office Depot chat online (rep didn't let me get the 16gb since Office Max website doesn't show the 16gb one).

Used the same coupon and picked up a 32 gb for $233.89 after tax. Good deal! But OM seems to be OOS around orange county, heard they will get new shipment Monday.

another nice effort from Google

Going to try in a little bit. Will report back but I see no reason why this doesn't work/ Also, living in Florida, computer products are tax free this week for back to school. Other people I have come across have reported that tablets fall under this category, which makes sense.

Damn, nearest office max is 40miles away. Had one been closer I would have bought anew 32gb and return my staples 16gb -$30 coupon.

$215.99, final price. Quite the savings! Going to return my 16gb best buy one later today.

Very nice! I wished it was tax free in CA. I also bought OM protection plan for 2 years. Anyone have experiences with OMs protection plan? Debating if I should cancel it. The girl that worked there said I can return the tablet in any condition within 2 years and either get it replaced or refunded full amount with a gift card. Sounds too good to be true.

You should see if there is a deductible and whether it covers lost/stolen and physical damage.
$54 off is amazing. I would jump on it before OM decides to exclude certain devices or cancels the coupon. I paid full price at Amazon the first day it went on sale (Friday). Paid $300 for Saturday delivery. Returning it and buying locally would be lucrative. I wonder if Amazon will price match if I call them. Tell them I'm within my 30 days and I can save $54 if I go through the hassle.
Hmmm.
I sent them an Email saying that I am within my return policy and would like to see if they would Price Match the coupon. I linked the coupon and the a image of the scanned receipt. We shall see.

Just took the coupon up to Best Buy to see if they'd price match a refund since I bought mine on Friday, and they did. I walked out with $49 cash in my pocket. Thanks OP!

Yep. It's in their best interest to do so, otherwise I'd return it and then buy another for the matched price. They don't want to end up with an extra used device that can't be sold new.

Got mine from BB last week and used a GC for part of the purchase, called them up and they said they do not price match post sale.
But are you saying if they did give a refund from a price match after sale....and you used a gift card for part or all of the purchase.....you only get $10 back?
I also thought the salesman at BB told me when I was completing the sale, said "You can not return for refund, you can only return for exchange."
Of course it sort of went in one ear and out the other as I thought to myself....why would I think of returning for a full refund.

Yes, I had a $50 GC so it knocked it down from ~$300 to like $247.

So. . . . . Groupon screwed me over. . . .

I just saw a thread title about how Groupon sent someone 2 tablets. I guess it all evened out, because I got screwed.
I ordered a white 16GB during the deal, it got shipped out, was out for delivery, and then nothing. No updates, no tablet.
Finally it got updated 2 days later saying it was "undeliverable" (I don't know why; I get dozens of things shipped to that address) and got sent back to the shipper. I got a nice email today saying that since the deal is over, they can't re-ship it to me and are issuing me a refund.
Stupid Groupon. Seriously? You can't ship me out the exact same physical tablet that just got returned to you?
Screw you, Groupon. Screw you.

That blows man

Damn... I hope the tablet you were supposed to get didn't go to the other person. That's really messed up. At least they gave you your money back. So in the end you evened out.

I don't think it went to the other person; it just got returned to sender yesterday.
Yep, it's a bummer. Oh well. I am glad that it got credited back to my card and not Groupon bucks. I would have been MAJORLY pissed then.

Could you imagine of it were Groupon credit
Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA Premium HD app

Yeah I had a second black one. Not white.

Just in case you're still looking to get one, I just ordered one from Groupon on Friday. As of right now, they're still running the deal I got. $395 for a 16gb, $425 for a 32gb.

That sucks dude... Shame you're not from the UK as i'm selling my 10.1 2014 for a really good price. Upgrading to the 12.2.

That is pretty lame... How much was it? I paid 430.00 on amazon for a white 32GB. Was under used section but was never actually used. It said in the description the only thing wrong was the actual box it comes in may be damaged. Got it Friday and the damage was a sticker being opened lol

Try Walmart for Refurb
I just got one from Walmart.com for $430. It is the 32GB version, available in both colors. It shipped out from NJ, so I am thinking they have refurbs from the same place the Groupon ones came from. You do have to pay tax at Walmart.com. but still a good deal in my opinion.

T mobile nexus 6 cheaper for cyber monday

I have a blue 64gb on backorder called customer care and have them credit me due to the phone has not shipped and the price has been reduced. I don't know if this breaks any forum riles I just wanted to make anyone who has their phone still in backorder to check this out. I made sure enough get the csr name and ID number.
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Free mobile app

I didn't have the same luck. The CSR I spoke with said that she didn't have a way to credit me (64GB ordered on 11/24). Maybe it's because mine is new service and I don't have an account yet? She said that I'd have to do a new order on the web and then refuse the shipment of the first order. She also said that the 64GB is backordered with no information on when they would be available.

So for the people that ordered the 64gb version in-store on 11/19, are we screwed? Or is there some way to get credit for this? I see it says web-only orders but I still don't even have the phone yet and opted to pay in full for a new account/line.

I ordered mine in store last night? What's the new price? I got a 64 gig also.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app

Just called tmobile..I mentioned sale and they said I could cancel and reorder...then I mentioned I'm using Jump! was put on hold and they are crediting the eip on the nexus 6 in 2 weeks. CSR seemed to think I'd have the phone by Dec 15 to apply the credit so we shall see...
I ordered on the 19th for what its worth...makes the 64gb basically the same as the 32gb was initially... I'll take that and wait for my whale.

Is the phone on backorder or has it shipped?
Mine should be out for delivery to my house today, but I still haven't paid for it yet.

Excellent, thanks for the tip, just ordered the blue 64GB. With all the backorders, hope to get it before summer!

Yeah it seems to be only for current customers. The csr also looked at my account. This phone release has been nothing but issues. But I guess this makes it a bit better since we are getting the phone for what the 32gb cost.
Also I ordered on November 24th

I was on the phone with T-mobile for the past hour trying to deal with this, but eventually they took care of the issue.
Essentially I am a new customer - single line - switched from Verizon - paying for the 64gb Nexus 6 in full - but ordered the phone in store and paid the taxes in advance on 11/19 after specifically asking if they normally have black Friday/cyber Monday deals and being told no. I asked if there was a way to cancel my order somehow or reorder the phone with the current deal etc, because it sucks to be out $50 when I have been waiting 2-3 weeks for this damn phone being on backorder etc and still do not have the phone in hand (on top of being told that there wouldn't be any deals). They said that I would have to refuse my shipment because it's already shipped, re-order again right now and wait for the new one to get to me, and then they would refund me for the old phone so that I have saved a net $50. So then I asked what is the purpose of wasting both parties time and money when an account credit would be fine for me? They apparently didn't think of that.. and said it would be no issue lol. I'm not the type of person to go complaining to get free stuff, but this legitimately sucks because I was told by a manager that there wouldn't be any deals and I might as well just order the 64gb now while I'm already here.
Overall even though T-mobile's customer service is set up somewhat clunky, I am very impressed with everything they've helped me with so far (had to deal with them 3-4 times already in the past few weeks). Verizon would have told me to go **** myself.
Hopefully this helps anyone that's in a similar situation.

Well this blows, I got my 32gb in store on Friday and was told there was no sale planned for Monday or a would have waited...

Just go back to that same store and get the price adjusted. They should be able to do it.

Too bad those people ordering today probably won't see their devices until February. Or, T-Mobile just might screw us early orders over again and ship items ordered today by x-mas. Which will make me hate it even more.

yup, if it was a 32gb either just returned or some new stock there is a good chance you will see it soon.

No dice here. Spoke with customer care and they transferred me to the "buyer's remorse" department. Both said the only thing I could do was cancel and reorder, but I would be placed in the back of the line for the phone. Not cool....

I just got off the phone with customer service. I ordered and received my phone the week before Thanksgiving after being told that they didn't have any deals planned. The CSR I spoke with today couldn't change the monthly charge, but did credit the $48 against EIP.

I bought mine on GPS with Discover.
It has 90day price protection.
I'll see if I can pricematch it to tmo's.
