Yes.
Hoping for a decent laptop with like a 940m or better to compliment my wife's laptop.

I could be tempted to get a new TV. The one I have has almost reached the end of its run. Hopefully, they'll have a decent quality 4k LED in the 50 to 60 inch range for around 1000. That's about what I was wanting to spend.

A 4K Blu-ray player sale would be nice!

Live now.
Bunch of good Xbox deals and bundles.
....jack shit for PS4. Figures.
Gaming deals in general are fairly flaccid. Most of the games on "sale" were the exact same price before.

Macbook sales aren't great but I guess I should have expected that.
Probably just going to get a refurbished from the Apple Store.

Still might pull the trigger on a PS4 just because... hrm.

Nothing I really want, sadly (or maybe not since I want to save money, haha).
Might have been tempted by the iPhone deal, but they don't have T-Mobile and it's smarter to wait for the next ones to get announced in a few weeks.

Yup, and certain games can take up a lot of space too. KOTOR, Bastion, Transistor, etc. They're all a few GBs I think, which adds up fast.

Some of the TV's seem like good deals but I'm in the market for the P-series TCL and no sale there so I'll just wait to buy that at its regular price next week

This pretty much sums up the deals.
Best Buy: OMG $70 OFF!!!!!!!!
Amazon: .........

You can price match amazon at Best Buy and get the set for the same price. Not fair to compare the two because Best Buy allows you to get amazon prices and pick up at a physical location.

Terrible sale.

I just got a Surface Pro 4 for Sub $600 with student discount on top. Going to draw like fucking mad on this thing.
The Surface Pro was the only other thing that I kinda wanted.. It'd be nice to replace my first gen and get a bigger screen.

It is completely fair to point out the absurdity of a "deal" that Best Buy is advertising in their anniversary sale.

Hope they have good deals on UHD Blu-ray players.
Anyone else have this EX HD? Want it for my PS$ and heard it's good.

How did the student discount apply? I'm trying to do the same but nothing is popping up at checkout.

You might be able to get the CORSAIR - VOID SE Wireless Gaming Headset - Yellowjacket for $10 if you have a "My Best Buy Offers". It's originally $130!

Coupon - not everyone will have the coupon in your account
https://www-ssl.bestbuy.com/loyalty/catalog
Activate the coupon and apply it during payment section in checkout. This is a glitched offer since it's suppose to take $60 off MSRP but it actually takes an additional $60 off the sale price.

Just scored this with in store pickup tomorrow that's a amazing deal if not mistake for a wireless name brand headset
Got one too; none available for pick up but is being shipped for free. Plus I had a $5 reward cert that brought it down to $5 and change.

Yep found out about this from Wario64. I already have a headset but for $10 I bought it as a backup.
Holy shit, this actually works! Here's to hoping my order doesn't get canceled! Thanks for the heads up! I was thinking about getting a ModMic for my headphones but this is way cheaper!
Glad we all were able to get something out of this lackluster sale.
Got one shipped. Don't really need it but eh, it's only $10. If they cancel it, then no big deal.
Thank you for this!
I've been using an old, wired Turtle Beach headset for a few months, now. Bought mine!
