The Trending Five: Green Monday Edition
We have over 30 deal posts posted today so far, and with all the chaos and noise, it is time for a “Trending Five”, spotlighting some of the trending offers and ones that got buried by the avalanche of new deals! As usual, I am restricting myself to only include five (although loopholes for more are possible) 🙂

For more action, check the Adorama Featured Sales along with their Green Monday sale.
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.
Canon SL2 with 18-55 and 75-300 and 50/1.8 for $779 at Costco [non-members for $819]
The Canon SL2 with the 18-55 lens goes for $600 in new condition at authorized dealers (eg B&H Photo) but if you also want the Canon 50mm f1.8 STM and 75-300 f4-5.6 III non-USM lenses, you can get them all together as a bundle with a Canon bag, 32GB SD card for $780 at Costco. Non-members can buy it with a 5% surcharge (= $819).
This depends on whether you want all three lenses. The Canon 50mm f1.8 lens goes for $125 on its own, so is the 75-300mm non-USM and the bag/SD worth an extra $55 for you? Or an extra $94 if you are not a Costco member. Sales tax is extra as usual. I do not mention or calculate sales tax in the deal posts since it varies based on many factors.
Speaking of Costco, a number of gift cards for national and regional restaurants are available with nice discounts of around 20% and they are available to purchase for non-members as well. Many of these are delivered as multiple $20 or $25 gift cards, making it easier to split the order with friends and family or use them as gifts. Speaking of gifts, some of the toy drive folks often need gifts for older kids, and they say gift cards are one good option ~ in case you need ideas or reasons to buy these 🙂
Panasonic ZS100 with $80 Gift Card and $22 Rewards and Panasonic Travel Bundle (Charger, Battery) for $548
Another freebie has been added to this. The new condition Panasonic ZS100 superzoom (1″ sensor, 10x optical zoom) is offered in a bundle at Adorama for $548 with free shipping with these freebies:
+ $80 Adorama gift certificate
+ $22 Adorama promotional rewards
+ Panasonic DMW-BLG10 Li-Ion Battery & Charger Travel Bundle (which as the name suggests includes a charger and a battery)
The sale is good for the black or the silver color scheme.
A number of Panasonic gear continues to be offered with either free gift cards or free lenses, find those in our earlier Panasonic posts.
Imported Nikon D850 Body w/1-YR Seller W for $3775
If you really don’t want to wait for the Nikon D850 to come in-stock from authorized Nikon USA dealers for $3300 [check the Stock Status Tracker for that], and you are willing to pay a limited availability premium, and get a 1-year seller warranty (instead of a Nikon USA warranty), then…
… to the eBay Deals we go where eBay seller “Deals All Year” is offering the new condition Nikon D850 body only for $3775 with free shipping and a 1-year warranty from the seller, not Nikon USA. Limit one per buyer.
They sold 54 of these, so temptation won over 54 people so far. Personally I wouldn’t buy it, but I’m not the master of the universe, other people have different preferences and priorities 🙂
NewEgg’s Promo Codes for Green Monday sales
In addition to the previously mentioned Green Monday sale, NewEgg is also running a Promo Code Green Monday sale where the offers need the promo codes shown over there. You have to give them an email address in order to use the promo codes. The sales include 20% off select motherboards, 10% off select SSDs, select monitors, select internal or external HDDs, 15% off select RAM, along with software and firewall and optical burners. Too many to list here, this is a DIY adventure if interested 🙂
Some promo codes expire Monday night, others expire Wednesday night.
$20 off $100+ REI Garage orders
The REI Garage is the new name for the REI Outlet store. Until 12/20/17, automatically (no coupon code needed), their shopping cart will give you a $20 off discount if you purchase $100+ in REI Garage products. This discount only applies to item purchased from the “REI Garage” website, not the main REI website. They don’t have camera gear, but they have a lot of items of interest to photographers who spend a lot of time in nature.
Refurbished Canon EF-M Lenses: 18-150 for $180, 55-200 for $150 w/1-YR Warranty
The Canon EF-M mirrorless offers don’t sell out as fast as the Canon EF/EF-S DSLR cameras and lenses when they are put on sale at the official Canon USA outlet store with the 1-year Canon USA warranty. So it’s music to your EF-M ears. Which brings us to a refurbished Canon EF-M Lens sale with the following lenses in-stock as of the time of writing, all refurbished below:
+ EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM for $130
+ EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM Lens Graphite for $180

+ all refurbished
Smartphone Sales Round-Up (Unlocked with US warranty)
Not everyone wants to buy cameraphones with carrier ties, so if you are repulsed by our previous $300 off LG V30 or Pixel 2s Verizon post, we have a safe space for you in this post: these cameraphones are in new condition, factory unlocked with USA warranty…
+ Huawei Honor 6X Dual Camera for $150, three color options, up to three per color per customer
+ currently the #1 best seller in Unlocked Phones at Amazon ~ among the phones that are properly categorized that is 🙂
+ Huawei Mate 9 with Amazon Alexa and Leica Dual Camera for $400, in two colors, limit up to three per color per customer
+ Nokia 6 with Lockscreen Offers & Ads for $150 (limit one per color per customer)
+ Prime members only; the ones without ads go for $225
+ Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with $100 B&H Photo Gift card and Samsung Qi Charger for $929
+ not as good as the Black Friday deal of $780 to $800 but gets close
+ only two colors are US warranty. B&H also carries International models which are not eligible for the promotion. Only the North American models (Midnight Black or Orchid Gray). Not the Maple Syrup color!
+ the Essential Phone + 360 degree camera deal has not returned. The Black Friday sale decimated Amazon’s inventory 🙂
Walmart Green Monday sale
The Walmart Green Monday sale is also under way with a variety of technology products participating as well. You can use the various sub-categories on the left hand side over there to filter them further by areas of interest or price ranges.
$300 off the LG V30 or Google Pixel 2s with 24mo Verizon Installment Plan
Two of the top Android cameraphones at the moment are having a promotion running at Verizon Wireless. The promotion is a $300 off promo credit when you purchase either the LG V30 or the Pixel 2s (Pixel 2 or 2 XL) with a 24-month installment plan. The discount will be a monthly discount during each one of the 24 months. At the end of the 24 months, you will have a $300 off discount on the phone price. You own the phone at the end of the 24 months, it is not a lease. Credit check and Verizon plan required for this.
The discount is not available on an outright purchase of the phones. Only when purchased with a 24-month installment plan. These are the “Nu Contracts” 🙂
As usual, check terms, conditions, restrictions, etc before buying.
Green Monday: 15% off Regular Priced Items at ToysRUS
There are some camera-related items, of kids interest and instant cameras, among others, and they may be participating in the Toys R US website sale that gets you 15% off regularly priced items. The sale happens automatically during Green Monday on eligible products, no coupon is needed.
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.
MacMall Green Monday sale
MacMall too is participating in the Green Monday festivities with a Green Deals of the Week sale featuring half a dozen different MacBooks.
They also have a Best Sellers sale featuring a mix of Apple and PC/Tech sales, living in harmony, side by side on their piano website!
For non-Apple-centric shoppers, they have their PC Mall Green Monday sale as well with various weekly offers.
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 🙂
Olympus Outlet Store Watch: only three PRO items listed for Green Monday
Green Monday is well under way but the Olympus Outlet store has not been decorated like a Christmas tree with deals. Only the three previously aforementioned PRO camera gear are listed there. As a refresher:
+ refurb E-M1 II body for $1500 with coupon GREENDEALS
+ refurb 25mm f1.2 PRO for $900
+ refurb 12-140mm f4 IS PRO for $1050
+ 90-day Olympus USA warranty included
+ all three are in-stock as of the time of writing
Corel Green Monday Sale includes Aftershot PRO 3 with Free Plug-IN for $44
The Corel Green Monday sale includes the Aftershot PRO 3 software with the ParticleShop plug-in included for FREE, for $44 for the full edition or $33 for qualifying upgrade. Pay attention to the shopping cart as it automatically adds an optional service. Because Adobe does not have a monopoly on being assholes to consumers. Rant Ends 🙂
Some of their other software is also on sale, including Paint Shop PRO 2018 Ultimate with the aforementioned plug-in included for free for $70, a PaintShop Pro 2018 and VideoStudio Pro X10 bundle for $95, Painter and Corel Draw sales and more.
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 🙂

The Dell Home doorbusters will go live at the Dell Home deals website starting at 11am eastern time today!

Monday: 20% off orders at Barnes & Noble with Free Shipping
Reading is fun-da-mental and the Barnes and Noble website is encouraging this with a pretty good Green Monday promotion: coupon code GIFTS4ALL gets you 20% Off Your Order, and you also get free standard shipping even if your order total is under $25 and you are not a B&N member. Strategically this is a good idea for books that have the same prices everywhere or rarely get discounted.
As usual, coupon exclusions apply. The 20% off coupon cannot be combined with the 12 Days of Christmas sales or any products or brands that do not allow couponing. Coupon expires on Tuesday at 3am ET.
Part of their 12 Days sale is a 30% Off Toys & Games sale. This sale is factored in on their website, there’s no coupon code to enter. You cannot combine it with the 20% off coupon.
The Clearance section is another place to look for deals. You can drill down the sub-categories or go directly to the Photography Clearance section. There’s also this 30% – 75% off Clearance page.
But wait, there’s more! Barnes and Noble has over 90 leather bound Collectible Editions of various classics old and new, from Jane Austen to Star Wars and Dune and Alice in Wonderland and Lovecraft and more.
