Verbatim media clearance at Staples

Read this on another deals forum and confirmed it ....

Verbatim media is on clearance at Staples :-

10 pack 16x DVD+R - $2.50
10 pack 16x DVD+R LightScribe - $3.50
3 pack 2.4x Dual Layer - $5.50

I picked up 4 packs of the Dual Layer and 2 packs of the 16x DVD+R at my local Staples in Oviedo, FL. Store still has around 6 pack of Dual Layers and almost 20 packs of the 16x stuff left over.

I think this is an awesome deal on the Dual Layer disks with no rebates.

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

Wow. Just got back from Staples with 20 16x -R discs and 6 +R DL discs for just $16 (pre-tax). Crazy! The new prices were not labeled or advertised and showed up only during checkout.

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

I didn't know the price would only show up on checkout!!! I just came from my local Staples and didn't see the prices mentioned here, so I didn't get any of the DL media!!!

Forgot about you studmonkey76. It's the one on So. Glenstone close to hwy 60. South of Best Buy other side of the street.
Edit: The had approx. 10 packs of the DL's left at 1 pm today but they might have had more in the back. Only had 2 packs of LS's and i didn't see any 10 packs of 16X +R's. They are not with the regular media on the shelves. They are in the Verbatim cardboard displays. I bet there's gonna be alot of DL scans in the near future

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

Is this deal globally on?

I can't find Staples open hours. I remember they open at 10 AM on Sunday.
Does anyone know the opening hour for Saturday?

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

I went to 3 different stores in San Diego county and only one had any inventory. I took the last 40 +R's. none of them had any DL. I asked if they could check other stores inventory and it looks like San diego county is cleaned out!!! Bummer,

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

Just went to midtown Manhattan. There's more than 10 Staples in a walking distance. But not many of them had these media. At least one (35th & 8th) had a few of them each. Too bad there were only two plain 16x +R. (Of course now there's none. ) I wasn't greedy enough to devour all the lightscribe and DL discs.

I think the SKU #s are 596841 (plain +R), 609031(lightscribe +R, if this is wrong, try 596839) and 580710 (DL). If many Staples are around you, just drop by and ask them if any other store has them.

Here's a test result:

The lightscribe discs are only 8x MCC003 and are 10 for 3.50USD. I dont even have a LS burner and I bought some at that price. I got 8 packs of 10 each of the dash 16x for 2.50 each.

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

Got 6 3 pks of DL, 9 10 pks of -R and 4 of +R 16x media. Everything they had in Bristol and Southington, CT stores. One of the stores didn't know anything about the closeout and still had the 10 pks at $15.95, I insisted that they scan it and sure as shit, they were $2.50. So, if the personnel, is unaware, insist that they scan it. Same thing happened with the Maxell closeout earlier this year. Good luck! I got mine!

Re: Verbatim media clearance at Staples

I got the last 6 of the 16x media at the store near me and the last 2 packs of the DL. They were not advertised here or on the web and I asked one of the employees and he said always look at the wire racks at the end of the aisles. I'm sure gonna do that in the future.

fljoemon - Thanks for the heads up!!
