Nikon D7500 w/18-55 & & 70-300 & Extended Warranty & Extras for $1600 (Costco members) or $1680 (non-members)
If you happen to want both the Nikon D7500 APS-C DSLR and the 18-55 DX VR and 70-300 f4.5-6.3G VR AF-P lenses, Costco has them in a bundle for $1600 with free shipping. You also get a 2-year extended warranty on the camera body (not the lenses) along with a 32GB SD card, an extra battery, a Nikon branded gagdet bag and a Nikon online class.
Non-members can buy this online with a 5% surcharge, which in this case is $80 more. Given that an annual Costco membership is $60 (Gold Star individual or Business member), it makes sense to sign up for a membership instead of paying the $80 non-member surcharge. Occasionally they have new member promotions that give you some freebies for your first membership year. Then with a membership you buy a mountain of toilet paper and “tp” all your frenemies 😉
This bundle may also be available at your local Costco store but they don’t have a store look-up option (yet???) on their website.
Refurbished DJI Phantom 4 Quadcopter w/1-YR warranty for $640

Limit three per customer. Nearly 900 units have been sold from the eBay listing so far per the on-page eBay stats.
PS: note that DJI revealed the all new $799 DJI Mavic AIR earlier this week.

FREE 24pk single use AA or AAA batteries at Harbor Freight with coupon
If you like the idea of FREE batteries but don’t want to deal with Office Depot Rewards, fear not, we have a deal for you too!

You may also find their coupon ads in local newspapers and magazines. I haven’t checked their website, maybe it’s there too.
You don’t even have to buy anything. You can show up and get the free batteries and walk out. There is a limit one of freebie per customer per day.
