    Hey guys, pulled this off of thinkpads.com

    Fellow Forum members,

    I just got a notice of a coupon for PC World subscribers. It says "Save an additional 15% Off on select ThinkPads.
    Offer good August 14-16. Use Code: USPPCWORLD in shopping cart for savings."

    Good luck! And Happy free money!

    Nice coupon. For those considering the X-series, they're also offering the UltraBase at 50% off ($100 instead of $200). I might have to jump on this. :)

    No, they are not stackable.

    I just tried the USPSUMMER coupon on a 15.4" T61 without stacking anything and it didn't work. I also tried USPPCWORLD on the same order and I got 10% off. Doesn't beat my 15% I got with education + 10% late July. My system on order now is $1,157.67 and my configured system with the USPPCWORLD coupon is $1,191.60.

    Damn... Just tried the coupon... Its 40 bucks cheaper than the one I ordered yesterday. Is there any way to cancel my order to use this coupon? Or can they pricematch?

    Hey everyone,

    I did some experimenting with these coupons and the best price I came up with did not involve this USPPCWORLD coupon at all. The education purchase program and the USXGENERIC coupon seemed to yield the best deal. See my other thread for details, and feel free to contradict me with any better deals.

    That said, I don't know when the USXGENERIC coupon expires.

    The education + USXGENERIC is still only 10%. You can just use the USPPCWORlD coupon and get 10%. If anyone can get 15% off without fatwallet or amex/visa perks then I'd be interested.

    xnviews, I tried the USPPCWORLD coupon and it came out $70 or so more if I recall correctly. I can't verify this because it appears the 15" T61p models are not available on the site. (This is a really bad thing if they not selling them anymore, because I still want one.)

    Yeah, SPP, the July code, AMEX Tailormade, and Fatwallet all stacked together rocked! My final price including tax and rebates for T7300, 14" WXGA+(1440x900), 100GB 7200rpm, Nvidia 140, DVD-RW, Fingerprint reader, and 6-cell battery, was $1023.28, thanks to those piled up discounts. That's the only thing keeping me from returning it and ordering a 4:3 T61p which wasn't available when i ordered.

    Does anyone know if the USPCWORLD coupon is stackable with fatwallet? USPCWORLD isnt on the fatwallet, and it says using coupons not on fatwallet may void cash back.
