  Yep pretty much that happened to me once or twice when all the stars are aligned just before I go overseas. Add TRS claim to the list too.

    The holy grail would be that with manufacturer cashback, discounted gift cards, membership points, staff discount and credit card price protection when the price drops again later on.

      Wow, didn't know I missed out on so much, though I think discounted gift card and Amex cashback is kinda mutually exclusive. :)

        Not if you cap the amex max savings. Then you combine the two :)

    The DLink Router for $85 with $100 cashback!

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/101972

    Got paid and kept the item.
    I ran that router (flashed to Tomato firmware) for years as my primary too!
    In fact it's still running today as a wireless bridge at my Mum's!

    Still remember the guy at Dickies "Wow, these are really popular today!"

  This is when TGG started on ebay and were doing 20% off.
  Purchase item (no price jack) 20% off, this was the best price at the time.
  $900*.8 = $720
  Appliance online had a price drop vs pre discounted price $900 vs $780
  Applied for the good guys price guarantee 120% and they accepted it.
  received ~$144 gift card.

  $720-144 = $576.

  A few years ago graysonline had $50 off coupons (no min spend). Used them on a bunch of auctions and ended up with ~70 bottles of wine for $40 delivered

  Lavazza mini pod machine from target a few years back was a good one too

  Profit with free pods then sold the machines on eBay for $50
