I was looking for an 3rd gen i5 laptop and found that most of them are around $600 mark.
This one caught my eyes when it shows up as under $500.

Receipt demonstrating price match + ING Paywave in $95 chunks
https://app.box.com/s/tqeboerntfoltz0agdni

Pros:
3rd gen i5 laptop under $500
It's not an HP (thank you wolfenator87)

Cons:
4 cell battery (thank you Jezzzzza)
No dedicated graphics (thank you bbyboy)
Acer

Note:
No touch screen
No cashback from Acer

    Price match is NOT a bargain, it is a bonus

    http://www.officeworks.com.au/retail/products/Technology/Com…

    PM@Officework = $479.20 x 0.95 = $455.24

      Price match + ING paywave is NOT a bargain, it is an extra bonus

      $455.24 x 0.95 = $432.48

        Price match + ING paywave + TRS GST rebate is NOT a bargain, it is a super extra bonus

        $432.48 - ($455.24/11) = $391.09

    DS don't list the full model number nor do they publish many specs. I can see OW getting out from this price match quite easily.

    • tg on 27/07/2013 - 16:33

      The receipt should help you in this regards.

        It's showing your full name; just in-case you wanted to keep that confidential. Howard.

          Thanks. Changed it to Anonymous :)

    • watashiwajei on 28/07/2013 - 09:47

      You're right - at my Officeworks store, the manager is refusing to price match DS as they claim they are in liquidation.

      • Riczter on 28/07/2013 - 10:24

        Lol wtf. I managed to get price match at Cockburn officeworks no problems

  • bbyboy on 27/07/2013 - 16:30

    does it have dedicated graphics?

    • tg on 27/07/2013 - 16:34

      Cons:
      No dedicated graphics [added]
      Acer

      • Cheeper on 28/07/2013 - 11:02

    "Cons…Acer."
    You should be grateful it ain't HP :P

    • Cheeper on 28/07/2013 - 11:03

      I've found Toshibas to be the most unreliable. Acer and HPs are fine.

  • yokumoku on 27/07/2013 - 19:12

    Last week my friend bought one for $599. He missed the bargain.

    The i7 is also good value at $559.20, you dont often see an i7 under $600.

    • Riczter on 28/07/2013 - 10:28

      tg, you don't think there might be a cash back on this one do you? I'm not sure how to check without the snid or full model number……

    • Cheeper on 28/07/2013 - 11:04

      I7 under $600… worth posting as a bargain.

    how about this from JB http://www.jbhifi.com.au/computers/acer/15-inch-notebook-sku…

    • tg on 28/07/2013 - 09:14

      i3 laptop needs to be under $400 to be attractive.
      The above mentioned one is close to $400 after cashback (take forever and still a little bit over $400 at the end)

      Btw, is your name 1 word, 2 words or 3 words?

    This is an awesome laptop for the money. Its got a touch screen and backlit keyboard & i think an ACER mailin CASHBACK rebate you might want to look into as well

      Sorry to disappoint anyone who thinks that there is touch screen or cashback.
      There is no touch screen - there is no "P" after 571 in the model number.
      There is no cashback - I have gone through Acer's cashback website before submitting this deal and could not find it listed.

  • blahoz on 28/07/2013 - 11:16

    Thanks OP for the deal. Just got the laptop (posting this on it) from OW Werribee with the price match + 5%.

    • Riczter on 28/07/2013 - 16:28

      What's the full CPU model number? Is it a core i5-3337u or something else?

      • blahoz on 28/07/2013 - 19:37

        Hi, yes, it's a core i5-3337U

        • Riczter on 28/07/2013 - 19:47

          sweet thanks
