Dell.ca: Up to 12.5% Off Vostro Systems, 20% Off Latitude Laptops

[AndrewRFD]

Dell.ca has some coupons available for those of you shopping for new desktop or laptop systems.

• Spend up to $699 on any Vostro system and use coupon code KTW7JCPM7HJ71V for 7.5% off
• Spend over $700 on any Vostro system and use coupon code TKX2MT5ZVR$RS1 for 12.5% off
• Get 20% off any Latitude Laptop with coupon code WTKP$$$RPP6TLH

You can use these codes to get some interesting deals. Here are a couple of desktop systems that offer pretty decent value with the appropriate coupon code applied (prices reflect the coupon discount):

• Vostro 220 Mini Tower with Intel Pentium Dual Core E5300 (2.6GHz), 160GB hard drive, 2GB RAM, X4500HD Graphics, DVDRW, and Windows Vista Home Basic for $369.07 (with a Core 2 Duo E7400 processor, it's $406.07)
  
• Vostro 220 Mini Tower with Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 (3.16GHz), Dell 24" S2409WFP LCD, 320GB Hard Drive, 4GB RAM, Intel X4500HD Graphics, DVDRW, Windows XP (via Windows Vista Business downgrade) - $874.12

Regarding the first configuration, we have seen similar Vostro 220s go cheaper a couple of months ago, but it's been pretty quiet since. There have been better deals, but at $369 or $406, it's still a decent system for the money.

Shipping is free. Remember, all Vostro systems have a 30-day no hassle return policy. If you don't want to keep it, you can return it without having to pay return shipping or restock fees.

Dell, you should really update your prices on the latitude laptops. Configuring the same thing in the US is half the price. (E4300)

Vostro 17" with decent specs for $1101 after the 12.5% coupon and other price reduction:

• Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T6570 (2.1GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB)
• Genuine Windows Vista Business downgrade to Windows XP Professional, English
• Deep Cherry Red
• 17.0 inch Premium UltraSharp™ WUXGA Display with TrueLife™ (Wide View)
• 2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz, 2 DIMM
• 250GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive with Free Fall Sensor
• Deep Cherry Red with NVIDIA® GeForce™ 9600M GS 512MB
• 8X DVD+/-RW with double-layer DVD+/-R write capability
• Dell Wireless™ 1397 802.11b/g Mini Card
• Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth 2.0 XP
• 6-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery
• 1 Year Basic Limited Warranty plus 1 Year Mail-in Service

I'd do an after-market upgrade on the ram, but the 9600 M video card is a decent basic gaming card, and you can't do much better than the 7200 RPM drive and 1920 x 1200 TrueLife screen.

I can't seem to get the 20% off coupon to work on E6400.
Am I doing something wrong?

[GTA_best]

don't want to start new link as it's not so important.

For those interested at Dell's 11G tower server, there is a nice deal.

That's nice system. For $1259 you can add a smoking fast T9550 processor (2.66Ghz, 6MB cache, 1066Mhz) if you start here http://configure.dell.com/dellstore/...20_FSI_CB17FS4 EARN CASH BACK and add the 12.5% off coupon.

You also get 4GB of Ram.

I reviewed the 1720 a few days ago...

Makes the Vostro 1320 with P8600 $699.12 before taxes

Unfortunately, the latitude coupon cannot be combined with other discounts though

Thanks for the coupon link. Timing worked out great for me. (Extra 12.5% discount!)

Bought a Vostro 1720 for my father-in-law's b'day next month. He won't be using Photoshop or anything processor intense, but looking at pics, surfing the 'net, watching the odd DVD and composing Word documents.

Thanks again. It was cheaper to buy within Canada than it was for an Ameri-friend to order a similarly spec'ed Dell computer on my behalf (for a change!)

And you get 1 year next business day onsite warranty: the system I configured didn't have NBD onsite... so your system is better! If I could remove the NBD onsite, it might be very close to $1000: that's a great deal!

has anyone tried this deal with EPP?

[Derek]

We need some desktops for the office. Any better deals out there than the Vostro 220 w/E7400 for $406?

Only have today left, otherwise, might pick up a few.

[Derek]

Bought 2 in the end.

[eddiet19]

has anyone tried this deal with EPP?

Dell's EPP are never good. They're over priced and there's only a small selection of qualified products for EPP discount.

[MrWizard]

Latitude coupon doesn't work with the new Latitude 2100 netbook...

[Viper]

Excellent timing! I was just looking at ordering one of those vostro 220 desktops.. this coupon will make it an easy decision to order one
Thanks OP!
