You can also use a $20off$150 if you don't want the case and photo papers
I'm sure that this will not last long so hurry up if you want a camera with IS for less then $150

First off Booooo *vista*:D

I have used the Canon A series camera, i find their camera to be bulky and it doesn't have the battery indicator of how much juice is left. It only tells you, the battery needs to be replaced. PERIOD, after that you will need to replace the battery.

Ther are some firmware upgrades that add a number of features to the SD and A series Canon cameras... http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK_firmware_usage#Script_menu

......

- No IS
- 3x zoom instead of 4x
- Sony brand lens
- 320 x 240 movies instead of 640 x 480
- No AF-assist lamp
- No manual controls

Also, boo for sony cameras + memory stick.

Good thing I missed the dell deal. Was able to order this while 30 off 150 still worked.

Thanks OP - ordered - same as you except I bought some pens instead.

I've been looking at this camera for sometime now.

The best part is if Dell or somebody comes along with a better deal before Christmas, Staples is easy to return.

Got one too, thanks OP, better than the past DELL deal imo! Also its returnable if on boxing day it turns out to be cheaper!

Use code: 50735 ($30 OFF $150) and no filler is needed.

Anyone have another code for $30.00 off $150.00??? This one does not seem to work any longer. Would really appreciate it!..

I can't find a working $30 off $150 but the $20 off $150 code 67560 works.

I don't think there is a working $30 off $150 coupon right now from what I have seen anyway.Just add a $5.09 filler item to get the price above $175 and use the $30 off $175 from the staples coupon thread or as gumby said use the $20 off $150.These are about the only choices you seem to have at the moment.Good luck.

Ordered one with the $20 off... nice enough deal.

One of the best out of all the camera deals I've seen posted recently IMO.

Got the camera today, minus the Mentos. I was so in the mood for some Mentos too. :)

Anyways that's one gift taken care of.

EDIT:
Thanks to the OP!
