\"\"I just got OWC Larry’s thoughts on Black Friday…and while he was out in the wee morning hours to witness the true doorbusters, I hit some stores before work and scored some great deals.<\/p>\n

Getting a great deal on something you really need gives one such a thrill rush…it would be outlawed if put in a can or bottle! Those energy drinks have nothing on this kind of pulse boosting excitement.<\/p>\n

In Larry’s thoughts though, I saw some new great deals that we have on our site that weren’t covered in our Tuesday “preview” blast<\/a>. And having scoured the holiday inserts to see where we stacked up – as well as to see if there were items we didn’t have that I needed (can you beat a $29 Canon wireless printer!) I found the following to be especially thrilling and hope you do too:<\/p>\n

Microsoft Office 2008 – now $119.00 + w\/with Free Upgrade to 2011<\/a>
\nThe last of our Office 2008 stock at a great price for getting 2011 + 2008
\nis the last version that supports PowerPC G3\/G4\/G5 as well as Intel Macs.<\/p>\n

Verbatim Store n’ Go USB2 Flash Drives 4GB to 16GB from $4.99 to $25.00<\/a>
\nSave up to 66% off<\/strong> vs. $14.95 to $59.95<\/p>\n

Apple PowerMac G4s from $89.99; iBook G4\/1.33GHz Laptops for $195.00<\/a>
\nThis is a CRAZY good deal…an iBook makes a great 8-12 year old’s first computer, a teen’s “netbook” with more functionality, the uses are endless…<\/p>\n

Up to 75% off<\/strong> of great accessories, cases, and more for iPad<\/a><\/p>\n

NewerTech 2.5\u201d \/ 3.5\u201d Serial ATA Hard Drive Docks are $19.99 (50% off) while they last<\/strong><\/a>
\nIf you or anyone you know has bare SATA drives just collecting dust, you can’t find a lower cost way (just $19 bucks!) to retask those drives for additional storage or backup.<\/p>\n

Up to 60%+ Savings<\/strong> on Genuine Apple Accessories<\/a><\/p>\n

Powered USB Hubs from $4.99<\/a>
\nThat’s another crazy good deal…just about everyone you know that uses a computer can use a powered USB hub!<\/p>\n

USB Wireless 802.11g\/n adapters from $9.99; Routers from $19.99<\/a><\/p>\n

Over 50% off<\/strong> selected Keyboard Covers for MacBook\/MBPros & Desktop
\nKeyboards<\/a><\/p>\n

See all these featured items and more online here<\/a><\/p>\n

And the deals continue during checkout…delivery starts from $1.95 and is FREE<\/strong> on orders $139.99 & higher<\/p>\n

Plus, you can instantly SAVE up to $50<\/strong> just by using the Amazon Payment option<\/a><\/p>\n

So snap out of that leftover Turkey day food coma and dig into some tasty second helpings of savings now that you’re done with the bricks and mortar stores.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
