Is this a really good deal? Seems expensive at bestbuy for the DVD-RW when you can get them online for a lot cheaper.

No, it's not necessarily a hot deal. To be honest, I don't have the time to search all over for the hottest deals and assume what may or may not be a good deal for someone else. I hope posting the ad is beneficial for folks that like to read the labels, don't have a credit card or don't want to pay shipping etc.. I'll edit the thread title for a better description.

I take it you've used the Sony, how do you like it?

I got some of the Verbatim DVD+Rs. Reasonable deal.

Thanks BugMonkey; The Fuji and Verbatim are the best deal in town at this time and worth buying them, I will.

I have found Made In Japan +R discs by Fuji at the local BB, are these still Taiyo Yuden?

Yes they are, I have been using them quite often and are among the best. I burn them (DVD+R 8X) at 16X flawlessly with my NEC 3500 and mod f/w.

There's also a 1GB SanDisk USB Flash Drive, $100, then $50 in MIR's. There's also an extra $27 MIR on their website, so you could try getting $77 back, making it ~$23, but their ad only mentioned $50 in MIR's.

You need special luck to deal with BB on MIRs and get them back.
