    So, I just realized that my discover rewards card has 60.00 saved up, but Lenovo will double that, so if I purchase a system, I can turn my 60.00 reward into 120.00. THAT'S AWESOME!


    Anyone who has discover rewards, make sure to apply your dollars toward your Lenovo purchase, it's easily the best double rewards program!

    Yeah, I totally agree. I used this deal to get my t61. Much better use of cash back reward, than turning $60 reward to $120 Sharper image gift certificate :)

    But you can't combine with epp or spp or any other discount for that matter. Can't you only use it at lenovo.com/discover where they have overinflated prices?

    I priced a 3000 N200 on the www.lenovo.com/discovercashback website and found it with a 5% discount. It was $1199 on the main lenovo website and became $1139 on the discover site. Not sure where you are seeing overinflated prices?

    Also, does anyone know if I can use FatWallet in conjunction with the discovercard cash back? Would be nice to pay for some of the hefty sales tax.

    There's a couple a reason why you should not use this cashback...

    1) if you don't like the laptop and return it, you're out of 60bucks.
    2) Since you didn't pay the entire amount by credit card you won't get 2nd year extended warrenty from CC.
    3) 60 bucks is not that much of a discount :p
