BuyDig has a new coupon, use coupon code CLOSEOUT15 to get 15% off the current prices of nearly 500 clearance items. Coupon expires 2/2/15. Peruse the listings or use the Guided Search on the left side of their website to check product categories or by manufacturer. Some of the items are open-box. There’s a variety from converter lenses to Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 to Sony RX1 and A99 and NEX camcorders to Tamron 17-35/4 and 70-200/2.8 and more. If you sort the listings by price, you can check the various high-end camera gear available.
(ENDED) Ends 3pm ET: Get 15% back in Rakuten Points with coupon
This very limited time flash promotion expired… For Wednesday 1/21/15 until 3pm ET, you can get 15% points on your purchase at Rakuten (formerly buy.com) with coupon code FLASH15 entered over there. This is not a shopping cart discount. You will receive 15% in Rewards Points which you can use in future purchases. This is a flash sale, which is why it lasts for such a short time.
Make your own deal: VISA Checkout coupons: $25/$200+ or $15/$100+
You can make your own deals at BuyDig thanks to the VISA Checkout coupons. These are particularly of interest for items that have the same price everywhere or don’t often get discounted or you want them right now. There are two coupon codes, depending on your purchase amount. You must pay for the order with VISA Checkout. They expire 1/29/15. Here they are:
+ $15 OFF Orders of $100 or more with Visa Checkout coupon code VISAVDAY15
+ $25 OFF Orders of $200 or more with Visa Checkout coupon code VISAVDAY25
(ENDED) Woot-OFF continues for Day #2
This WOOT-OFf ended… The Woot OFF which started on Tuesday at 1am ET continues for Day #2, which means, other things equal, it will end at 1am ET on Thursday 1/22/15. Multiple other sub-Woots are also participating (but not Electronics or Computers). As usual, I do not know what items are coming up, so it is a YMMV adventure.
Fishing for Deals: Amazon’s Camera & Photo Outlet
I already just mentioned a quartet of deals I spotted, but I can’t price-check 150+ items on a dime, but if you feel like fishing for deals, there are 125 Lenses and 35 digital cameras and many accessories at the Amazon Camera and Photo Outlet.
NOTE #1: Use the left side of their page to navigate subcategories. The navigation breadcrumbs seem to take you to the general listings instead of the outlet listings (the ones that say “1-24 of 5,660 results for Electronics : Outlet : Camera & Photo : 1” [I haven’t tried this on multiple browsers, so it may be a caching/browser/cookies issue].
NOTE #2: if you are not familiar with the price range of individual products, price-check them as the Outlet prices are all over the place.
Buy $500+ in Art (including Photography) get $50 Gift Card via email
If you like to purchase photography as art, the Amazon Art store has a couple of promotions: purchase $500 or more of art in a single order and receive a $50 Amazon Electronic Gift Card as a bonus via email. For first time buyers of Amazon Art, you receive a $25 Amazon Electronic Gift Card when you spend $100 or more in a single order. I don’t know if the promotions are stackable. In the Photography section, they have over 8500 photographs available for sale. I am not an art critic, but I’m pretty sure the United Club Lounge Pass is not art 🙂

$50 off select popular DSLRs mostly (choice of 185) at Amazon with Two Step Promotion
If you are looking to buy one of these 185 cameras from Amazon, Amazon has a two step promotion that takes $50 off their current prices! It is a two step process, but it’s fairly simple and fast. I just did it before writing this blog-post.
STEP #0: Eligible cameras are mostly DSLRs but there are also some non-DSLRs. Filter by manufacturer on the left side of the promotion page or use this navigation page as your jumping point. Among the eligible cameras:
- Nikon D4S, Df, D810, D800E, D750, D610, D7100, D7000, D5300, D5200, D3200, (42 options total)
- Canon 1D X, 5D Mk III, 6D, 7D II, 70D, 60D, T5i, T5, SL1 (39 options)
- Pentax 645Z, K-5 IIs/II, K-5, K50, K30, K-S1 (33 options)
- Sony cameras A99, A77 II, A58 (10 options)
- Panasonic GH4 and GH3
- Sigma SD1 and SD15
- Leica RFs and one MF
STEP #1: Buy an Amazon Camera Electronic Gift Card of $0.50 or more (that’s right 50 cents or more). This is an email gift card, not a plastic gift card. You must buy the “Amazon Camera” gift card design. It is the only one eligible for this promotion. You must do this by 12/23/14. You can send the email gift card to your own email address or to someone else. Limit one discount per customer. You are not obligated to buy a camera later, so you have nothing to lose, it’s like having a future option to exercise at a later date if needed.
When you reach the Checkout page, the shopping cart notifies you that the Gift Card you are about to purchase qualifies you for this promotion. An annotated screenshot crop below is showing this (the part about Amazon Points is unrelated to this promotion, it’s when one has a credit card with rewards points linked to their Amazon account)
STEP #2: Check your email. Unless the Amazon servers are under heavy load, you will receive your email gift card by email within a couple of minutes. A few seconds after you receive your email gift card, you will also receive another email from Amazon, entitled “Your Amazon.com Promotional Credit for Cameras”. This email notifies you that a promotional credit of $50 has been applied to your Amazon.com account. There is no coupon code to enter. This happens automatically. This $50 promotional credit must be used by 2/7/15 otherwise it will expire.
STEP #3: Pick a camera of potential interest from the 185 eligible camera kits. To test this promotion, simply add one of these cameras to your shopping cart, proceed to the Amazon Checkout page, and look at the top right corner of the Amazon Checkout page. If a camera is eligible, you will see a $50 discount. Annotated screenshot crop example right below…
If you are interested in a camera not shown in the list, you can always try it out and see whether the discount shows in the shopping cart (I can’t test every camera out there).
If not used, the promotion will remain in your account until 2/7/15, at which point, it will expire.
Get $20 back via mail-in rebate with an order of $100 or more
Tigerdirect has a new 48 hour promotion, good until 11:59pm ET on 12/17/14. Get $20 Back via mail-in rebate on order of $100 Or more at Tigerdirect. This requires a mail-in rebate.
This promotion is stackable with the $20 off an order of $100+ if you pay with VISA Checkout. This is an instant discount, no mail-in rebate.
Strategy: You can do either offer on its own, or you can do both. If you plan to do both, you need an order total of $120 or more, because the VISA Checkout promotion will instantly knock $20 off your price total, so you need at least $120+, in order to also qualify for the $20 back via mail-in rebate promotion on an order of $100 or more.
Free shipping at NatGeo store
The National Geographic Store has a free shipping store-wide promotion without a minimum purchase required. No coupon needed. This is a limited time offer. A small number of items are excluded as usual for various reasons. The link on the free shipping promotion at their page has the exclusion details along with the cut-off dates for Christmas Deliveries.
