New Deals
Newegg.com's shell shocker deal of the day today is on a
three-pack of Seagate 1.5TB USB portable external hard drives. Individually, these drives would be $70 each, or $210 total; however, they have been reduced to $150 for all three, for an individual average price of $50. That's nearly $100 less than buying these drives individually anywhere else.
Save $55 on the
Brother DS-620 color mobile scanner, today only at Staples.com. It was $130, but has been cut to $75. That's $20 less than the next-lowest price.
Today at Meh.com, get a two pack of
Belkin QODE Slim keyboard cases for only $10 with $5 for shipping. That's $90 off the list price. The lowest price we found for one of these elsewhere was $25.
Ending today at TigerDirect.com is a combo of discounts on the
PNY 32GB Turbo Flash drive with USB 3.0. It was $30, but was reduced by 40 percent to $18. Use coupon code JRT152383 at checkout to drop the final price down to $13, beating the next-lowest price by $2.

Security Checkup. Users have until February 17 to perform the checkup, with the extra storage being added at the end of the month.

Earlier Deals
TigerDirect.com is still offering the
Kingston HyperX 3K 240GB solid state drive at a pretty cheap price. It carries a list price of $251, but has been discounted by 56 percent to $110. That's $20 less than the lowest price found for that drive anywhere else.
Amazon has some good prices on Samsung 850 SSDs. In the 850 Pro line, which uses 3D V-NAND, the 512GB model
is on sale for $290, $60 off its usual price. It offers 550MB/s read, and 520MB/s write.
The 850 EVO line is also discounted, with good prices for the
250GB ($108.24), 512GB ($200), and 1TB ($390) sizes. The EVO drives are ever-so-slightly slower (540MB/s read) and less durable than the enterprise-focused Pro models (both are SATA III, 2.5-inch form factor), but are great for consumer use.
Amazon also has the 512GB Crucial MX100 line, with similar speeds, available for even lower prices at the
128GB ($63) and 256GB ($105) sizes, and matching the Samsung EVO price at the
512GB level ($200).
A bundle combining
Kingston HyperX Fury Red 4GB memory and McAfee 2015 Multi Access protection from TigerDirect is still listed at $80, but a rebate of $90 effectively makes the bundle free, while stocks last.
Best Buy are currently offering the
Logitech Wireless Bluetooth Speaker Adapter at $18 off its usual $40 price. The $22 device can be used to stream audio from a smartphone to nearby speakers via the device over Bluetooth.
BestBuy.com has dropped the price on the
PNY Lego 16GB USB 2.0 flash drive from $13 down to $7. That's about $6 less than the lowest price offered elsewhere.
The
D-Link DHP-209AV Powerline AV 200 Mini Adapter Starter Kit is currently discounted from its usual $50 price. While the initial discount to $40 is decent for a Powerline networking kit, promo code EMCANAT74 running until the 12th takes the price down to $23.
Do you want to play NES game cartridges without risking damage to a NES console? The
Retron 1 NES System on Amazon is discounted 32 percent, to under $17.
If you're about to renew (or start) the subscription to the Adobe CC Photographer's Bundle, which groups Photoshop and Lightroom along with a few other minor goodies for $10 per month (on an annual agreement), you might want to
go through Amazon. Throughout February, you will get a free $25 Amazon promotional credit, but of course this is not credited until a few months into the deal. You can cancel without penalty within the first month if needed. While not everyone likes "rental" software, we think Photoshop CC and Lightroom for $120 per year is actually a good deal.
