The other sub-Woots have regular sales, including a Centon USB stick sale at Woot Computer. These run in 24 hour blocks. Their start and end time is 1am Eastern. As usual, this is a YMMV DIY adventure, no one but the Woot AI bots (and mayhaps some well-behaved Woot humans) know what’s coming up 🙂

Rakuten Green Monday is 20% off site-wide

Rakuten too is celebrating Green Monday with coupon code GREEN20 that gets you 20% off almost everything at the Rakuten website during Green Monday. As usual, some products and brands are excluded from the coupon discount for various reasons.

Adorama Green Monday sale under way

Adorama too is running their Green Monday sales today. More on them as I digest them in separate posts, while trying to fend off Windows from taking over the machine with their various “maintenance” and “upgrade in the background” tasks.

Groupon Green Monday Crash The Site Sale

Groupon too is participating in the Green Monday festivities with a Crash the Site sale. Sorry to disappoint, but their website has not crashed yet. There are many and more products, this is a DIY adventure as I am not IBM’s Watson, I cannot spawn hundreds of background threads to digest it all 🙂

Target Green Monday: $20 off Every $100 you spent (max savings $100) [excludes DSLRs, Lenses, hot and popular brands)

DSLR and lenses are explicitly excluded from this promotion, along with many hot products and brands (Apple, Sonos, Google, Xbox, PS4, Samsung/LG TVs, and many more), but if what you want/need is not among the excluded items, you can save $20 off for every $100 you spend at the Target Green Monday sale. No coupon needed, it happens automatically when eligible items are in your shopping cart. Maximum savings from this offer is $100. In other words, if your order total is over $500, you get a flat $100 off discount.

The list of exclusions is in fine-print over there. I don’t know why they use fineprint (as in small font/text) on the internet since there is infinite space to make the important Terms and Conditions of an offer READABLE and VISIBLE. Sneaky retailer practices exposed 🙂 Offer ends Tuesday 3am ET. Rant ends 🙂

Microsoft begins 12 Days of Deals

If you are interested in Microsoft products and Windows and Xbox related products, the official Microsoft Store has started their 12 Days of Deals promotion, with, as the name suggests, 12 days of different offers.

And if you are looking for a historical Windows Phone piece, the unlocked Alcatel IDOL 4S is on sale for $169 with free shipping.

PSA: UPS Delivery Delays

It’s not just you. The waves and waves of Black Friday and Cyber Monday online orders have slowed down the Logistics experts at UPS, so much so that they have issued an advisory of delays and package overload/overflow.

If any of those packages were shipped with Amazon Prime 2-Day delivery, and missed their delivery estimate, you may be eligible to get an additional month added to your Prime account. This may be at the discretion of the customer service employee but it’s one of the Prime Benefits. I believe there is a (written or unwritten) limit of one monthly extension per month per Prime member.

This is one of the reasons Amazon offers $1 digital credits (or other checkout incentives) to encourage shoppers to select the slow shipping method for non-important / non-time-sensitive purchases. You probably don’t want a brand new tilt-shift lens toiling away in slow-shipping hell, but a book can be just fine floating in shiplandia for weeks and weeks 🙂 It’s also important to note that “slow shipping” does not necessarily mean it will arrive a lot later, it’s just that it’s not guaranteed to arrive quicker.

BL: Rent 7+ Days, Get 7 Days FREE

Borrow Lenses is back with another promotion. If you place a rental order with a duration of seven days or more, you will get seven days free. The offer is explained in detail with a screenshot from their email better than I can do with paragraphs and paragraphs of text 🙂

Adorama 48 Hour Cyber Monday II

Adorama is running what they call a 48-hour Cyber Monday 2.0 sale using their new visual format. Since the clock is ticking, I’m posting this now, because it may take a few hours before I can go though it all…

PSA: Weekly KEH Deals NOT loaded yet

UPDATE 12/18/17: it looks like this weekly promotion ended… The page returns a 404…

UPDATE Tue 12/5/17 11am ET: both remain empty as of this recheck as well…
