The Canon 24-70mm f4L IS USM goes for $850 at authorized dealers, but for a limited time, B&H Photo is offering 10% promotional rewards to go with it. That’s $85 to spend in future transactions at B&H Photo. Certainly not a small amount, and more flexible that accessories bundles (unless you happen to want/need that particular set of accessories).
Canon EF-M 22mm f2 STM with $25 Rewards for $250
B&H Photo is offering 10% promotional rewards on select lenses. We start with a prime for the Canon EF-M mirrorless system, the 22m f2 STM EF-M lens goes for the authorized dealer price of $250, but B&H Photo also includes 10% promotional rewards with it (= $25~) which can be used on future purchases at B&H.

Open Box Canon 70D w/18-135 STM IS and 1yr warranty for $1000
In addition to the previously mentioned Canon 70D body only kits, there’s another open-box option at Adorama, you can get the open-box 70D with 18-135mn EF-S IS STM for $1000 with free shipping and a one year Canon USA warranty.
Imported Canon 70D body only for $650
More eBay Deals action, we return to the Get It Digital eBay store with an imported grey-marked DSLR that was part of a Kit With Lens but was separated from the lens and sold separately. This time it is the new condition Canon 70D body only going for $650 with free shipping with a limit five per customer. There is no mention of warranty in the listing.
At authorized Canon USA dealers, the 70D body only kit goes for $1000, but it includes various free accessories and promotional rewards at some retailers such as B&H Photo and Adorama.
Another option, somewhere in-between, you can get it in open-box condition with a 1-year Canon USA warranty for $800 at Adorama.
Open Box Canon EF 40mm f2.8 STM for $119
The Canon EF 40mm f2.8 STM lens is available in open-box condition for $119 with free expedited shipping from Adorama. This is described as “Open Box-Packaging may show some wear and tear. Includes all original accessories and full 1 year Canon USA warranty.”… This is one of 500+ Camera and Photo Specials at Adorama…
Imported Canon 6D Body for $1000
To the Trending eBay Deals we go, where eBay seller “GetItDigital” (99.5%) is offering the imported grey-marked new-condition Canon 6D body only for $1000 with free shipping, with a limit of five per customer.
Based on the eBay listing, this does not specify whether it comes with seller’s warranty. It definitely does not come with a Canon USA warranty. This camera was part of a Canon 6D with Lens kit, but they are selling the camera and the lens separately to “share” the kit discount with the customers 🙂
In new condition from authorized Canon USA dealers, the 6D body only kit goes for $1400 but it also comes with a variety of free accessories and promotional rewards at B&H Photo and Adorama.
Yet another option (if you have no use/need for the extra accessories) is open-box condition of the Canon USA version with a 1-year Canon USA warranty going for $1270 at Adorama.
Open Box Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM for $450
If you are a fan of open-box camera gear, the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM is available in Open Box condition for $450 with free shipping at Adorama. Per the description there, this is:
“Open Box-Packaging may show some wear and tear. Includes all original accessories and full 1 year Canon USA warranty.”

Canon 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM for $229 (white box/grey)
Also part of the featured eBay Deals, the GetItDigital (99.5%) eBay store is offering the new condition white box Canon 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM for $229 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer. There is no mention of warranty in the listing, but it says it is a “white box” lens with all accessories included. Assume this is an imported/grey-market since it doesn’t specify, and does not have a UPC (since it was probably separated from a DSLR kit). Nearly 1200 units got sold as of the time of writing.
Canon-branded Accessories Sale (22 options)
To parallel the previously mentioned Nikon accessories sale, Adorama is also running a Canon-branded Accessories Sale good until 2/5/16 (or earlier for any items that may sell out).

Canon 100-400 f4.5-5.6L IS for $2100 with Your Choice of FREEBIES
Jealous of the new Panasonic 100-400mm lens, Canon has an instant savings promotion on their own 100-400mm lens 🙂 Kidding aside, the Canon EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS II USM is on an instant savings promotion going for $2100 at authorized dealers.

Pre-order new Canon SX540 HS ($400) and SX420 IS ($300) superzooms [no RAW]
While the new Panasonic superzooms are coming with RAW out of the box, Canon’s CES 2016 camera were RAWless. They revealed new Elphs along with the two superzooms without RAW. They are:
+ SX540 HS (50x optical) for $400 at B&H Photo and Adorama and Amazon itself
+ SX420 IS (42x optical) for $300 at B&H Photo and Adorama and Amazon itself
+ in a digital world where naming consistency is a rarity, Canon continues to consistently uses “IS” for CCD-based Powershots and “HS” for CMOS-based Powershots
+ interesting new cameras announced at CES 2016 are being added to the Cameras of 2016 Reference page
Canon D-Rebel T5i w/18-55 Video Creator Kit + Pixma Pro 100 for $550 after $350 MIR (AMEX GC)
This offer stands at the intersection of many interests (video, printing, mail-in rebates, gift cards). Adorama has a Canon D-Rebel T5i Video Creator Bundle for $550 after a $350 mail-in rebate (prepaid American Express gift card). For that, you get the Canon D-Rebel T5i with 18-55 IS STM, the Rode VIDEOMIC GO Microphone, and a 32GB Sandisk C10 memory card (these are the official colorfully-boxed-by-Canon “Video Creator Kit”. You also get the Pixma Pro 100 printer and a 50pk of 13×19″ Canon SG-201 photo paper.
Strategically with these bundles, if you don’t need all the included items, you can dispense with them as you see fit. Some may become gifts for other people, some could be traded locally or through various camera forums, others sold on eBay/Craiglist, others donated to local schools and non-profits, etc, etc, etc.
White Box Canon 24-105 f4L IS USM for $606 (Grey/Imp)
The Canon 24-105 f4L IS USM lens is bundled with some of the more advanced Canon DSLR kits. Some enterprising retailers are taking advantage of the kit bundle discounts and they sell the camera and the lens separately, partially passing some of the savings to the lens buyers. Once such case is found in the eBay Deals where eBay seller “Get It Digital” (99.5%) is offering the white-box (does not come in outer retail packaging) Canon 24-105 f4L IS USM lens for $606 with free shipping, with a limit of 3 per customer. Over 1400 lenses got sold so far from this listing per the eBay statistics over there.
NOTE: the eBay listing has no mention of a warranty. It does not state whether the lens was split from a USA warranty kit, or if it was split from an Imported kit. To be on the safe side, assume this is an imported grey-market item. They would have probably charged more if it was a USA warranty lens.
The lens on its own in retail packaging with Canon USA warranty goes for $1000 at authorized Canon dealers (eg Adorama with boatload of free accessories). A white box option (again with no specifics on warranty) goes for $610 by AudioDealz fulfilled by Amazon (with six free lens-related accessories).
Canon Lens Instant Savings (38 options; Expire 1/2/16)
The current iteration of the Canon Lens Instant Savings expires 1/2/16. A total of 38 items are participating at the aforelinked B&H Photo page, 34 lenses and 4 flashes. There are too many to list here individually. Many of them have promotional rewards as well. Some of these offers may not return after 1/2/16, but I have no way of knowing for certain either way.
UPDATE: I forgot to mention, running in parallel, also with a 1/2/16 expiration date are the instant savings on Canon DSLRs. These are not combined purchase discounts, just discounts on the DSLR prices.
Canon 5DS R body with $360 rewards and Next Day for $3600

I am highlighting some of the offers that are in-stock as of the time of writing in some of the posts below, but I can’t post about every single item – the Canon line-up is huge.
In parallel, you may also notice the offer below running over there. If you make a qualifying purchase of $500+ at the official Canon Outlet store, you will receive $50 in Canon eCash to use in future purchase. These are promotional rewards, not a gift card, so it has limitations and expiration. Details over there. Here’s the annotated banner from over there promoting it:
