WTF?! Fry's Electronics Has Started Advertising Sales On Non-GQ Media!

For those of you in the states who are familiar with Fry's Electronics and their sale ads, you know that for years Fry's has rarely, if ever, put any media in their printed sale ads other than their house brand Great Quality (GQ) media.

Fry's at one time or another has had boatloads of very cool media, from Fuji TYs to Kodak Optodiscs, but for whatever reason, they rarely advertised it as being on sale, and for that matter, rarely put any of it on sale. They used to have tons of overpriced media that they just let sit and rot.

Well, due to the economy, scandals with their execs, or a miracle from god (small g so we don't leave anyone's favorite deity out), Fry's has finally started to put some different kinds of media on sale, and they've even placed them in their ads. I'm truly speechless.

The prices you see below end on Tuesday.

Note that the price on the HP DVD media is also available online:

HP 100-pack DVD-R (CMC MAG AM3)

HP 100-pack DVD+R (CMC MAG M01)

I have noticed that too. It might be a good one to ad to the media tab on the ads. The only hard part is, they run ad's just about every day, ending on different days, so which to post?

If you like this media, you can get it cheaper (after easyrebate) this week at Staples. 25-packs are $6.98 with a $3.00 rebate, limit 10 rebates. SKUs are 592649 (+R) and 555506 (-R).
