Title: Free 32Mb memory stick from Dell
Post by: The Bar-Abbas Anomaly on July 11, 2004, 01:07:46 pm: http://www.slickdeals.net/#p4923

The link will take you to Dell. Basically, you click through a 5-min commerciald to get a prize. The "quiz" is really easy and lets you try over until you get it right.

For those of you who don't know, a memory stick is like a baby hardrive that you plug into a USB port. Very useful for transferring files between computers.

Trust me, you want one.

I think not.

They already have my address so I might as well get some benefit from them having that information. I already have a 256MB stick, but I could always use another, my spouse would like it. Thanks for the heads up Barabbas.

Edit: The site is not working, I played around with the site address and I'm starting to suspect that it is not even a Dell site. I would hold off until more information about this can be found.

If it starts working again, please let me know!

I completed the thing 5 minutes before I started this thread, but now I follow my link and the top left corner of the first page says 'Expired'....

Sorry about that, everyone. My bad! :-[

Post by: E_Look on July 11, 2004, 10:05:08 pm: Yeah, I got a "offer temporarily unavailable" message on a nondescript page.

I agree, Barabbas, I am using a 256 MB SD card for carrying and transferring files, a 128 MB one in a HP 49G+ calculator, and I CAN STILL USE ANOTHER smaller one for some data files, just to keep 'em separate from the other stuff I switch around all the time.

If you don't mind, keep us posted! I wouldn't mind getting it. Dell already sends stuff to my house.
