Update #2: Use
this link to generate the coupon. As before, click "Print in-store coupon" button and ignore the "Sorry, but we have already given you a coupon code" message.
Thanks, dave_c!Update: Staples has it for $80 -
$25 unique code =
$55 with free shipping. To generate the code, follow these steps (make sure ad blockers are turned off):
1) Open this link.
2) Click the Staples banner ad.
3) Click "Print in-store coupon" button and you will see the unique code in print preview. Ignore "Sorry, but we have already given you a coupon code" message.
Today only.
Newegg has the Toshiba HDTC605XK3A1 Canvio 500GB USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive for $80 - $10 off with coupon code
24HRSALE411J [Exp 4/11] =
$70 with free shipping. Features password protection, 12ms avg seek time, and 5400RPM.
I am not able to get a valid coupon.
Using an incognito window but there is no "gray box", just multiple lines of gibberish text with a red staples banner in the middle of it.
the coupon is not working. It keeps saying already gave me the code.
good deal otherwise
Try this link: http://ads.pointroll.com/PortalServe/?pid=1686077E31420120329220405
Still doesnt work for me. Says same message for me. Says
"Sorry, but we have already given you a coupon code."
Yep, same message as #5.
Do you see the Print in-store coupon button to the left of that message?
Just got one. The link works.
It printed ok for me by clicking the "Print in-store coupon" button, but it was a bit of work to get to that, the links weren't working for me, though I might have blocked some ad agency. This link worked for me:

Note that if you try to print more than one, they will be the same bar code # and only one will work, BUT if you use a different browser (or clear your cookie cache?) you can print a second valid coupon #.
The link just opens a blank screen for me.
Was a struggle to get coupons cuz I didn't do it properly. But once I got it right, I used the $25 coupons, stacked with Staples $10 coupon, to buy the Toshiba Canvio 1 TB portable drives for $82 each (tax included). Ended up with 2 of them.
Thanks dave_c - that the only link that has worked. Hope there is one left>
Got coupon to work on safari browser, but this hard drive is for windows systems not apple.
