VISA Checkout: $25 off purchase of $100+ at Best Buy website

VISA Checkout continues to promote itself in the most consumer-friendly way possible: offering discounts 🙂 The latest to join the VISA Checkout discounting party is the Best Buy website. You will save $25 when you make a purchase of $100+ and pay for it using VISA Checkout. Limit one per customer during this promotional period.

The expiration date is a bit nebulous. The offer expires 12/25/16 BUT the terms also say “or while supplies last”, which means it could end at any time since we (the shoppers) have no way of knowing what the “supplies” situation is 🙂

The Situation Room has been fully refreshed (removed expired offers)

The Cyber Monday Situation Room (nÊe Black Friday Situation Room) has now been updated, with all the expired offers removed (if I missed any, please let me know). This will continue to be updated until the end of the year. After “Cyber Monday” ends, it will be renamed “Holiday Shopping Situation Room”.

I am keeping them all in the same post to make it easier for people who have bookmarks, so they don’t have to keep changing their bookmarks. Instead, the same link will work Black Friday to December 31st.

16pk Philips LED 60W-Equivalent Soft White A19 Light bulbs for $32 [updated]

The “Soft White” offer continues, a 16-pack of Philips LED light bulbs, 60W equivalent, are on sale for $32~ at Amazon by Amazon itself. This makes it around $2 per light bulb (I didn’t even need to use a calculator for the complex math!).

This is a great opportunity to get books that are rarely discounted or have the same price elsewhere, or books that you would consider too expensive to buy under normal circumstances (eg the illustrated Game Of Thrones Book #1).
