WD 1TB drive for $200 at Microcenter through 3/30

Microcenter has a Western Digital 1TB hard drive for $200 with coupon. That bad part is that it's an in-store only deal so you have to have one local. It's the cheapest price I've seen yet though which is they're nice if you're cramped for space and need that monster drive for all your videos.

I just got done reading the paper and Fry's had a Maxtor 1TB drive for $200 as well with no coupon.

+1 for you!!! I picked up 4 for my new build that I've been planning forever.
The store was a mad house. They had the HD's in stock, but nobody new where they were at. One guy was getting pissed and was about to get thrown out.
I was also going to pick up a 42" Olivia LCD for $699, but the damn thing wouldn't fit in my car.

Were you at Fry's or Microcenter? That's a good price for the 42". Just what I've been looking for.

I was at Microcenter. I didn't even know I had a local store until I read your link.
I ended up returning the TV. It was too big for where I was going to put it. You better pick it up fast as a lot of people were buying them. One word of warning: Syntac, aka Olevia, is going out of buisness. I haven't heard anything bad about Olevia TV's. For the price they're great. Just pick up the 2 year Microcenter in home warranty for $150 more. Make sure the warranty covers the TV even if Olevia goes out of buisness.

Good to know. We're actually waiting until sometime during the summer to buy, I was just making notes. It's too bad they're going under, I liked that brand.

Turns out this deal goes through 4/13.
As a side note: I never really knew about MicroCenter before. I just kind of figured that internet prices would be cheaper and not to worry about the local stores. MicroCenter's prices are pretty competitive I'm finding. Especially their processor prices. I got an E8400 for $189 a month ago from them and I have yet to see anyone else offer it for under $200. They're offering the Q6600 quad-core for $199 right now. I also noticed on their ad that they pricematch newegg.com and Tigerdirect.com twice a week on processor prices. So check them out if you have one by you.
