The Season 1 Blu-Ray set of Game Of Thrones that also comes with a Digital Copy in HD is currently on sale for $20 at amazon.com with a limit of two per customer. This is a very very good price, since purchasing the TV season on its own digitally costs more than $20 in HD! This is the second release of the Blu-Rays. The first edition did not come with a digital copy but became an unintentional “collectable” since they stopped production after it was discovered that the props department used the head of W.
Outlander Book #1 (Kindle) for $2
The Kindle e-book of Diana Gabaldon’s popular Outlander TV series is currently on sale for just $2 at Amazon.com. This is the full book, 560 pages of it. The book series is the basis of the Starz hit show with the same name, helmed by non other than Ronald D. Moore of rebooted Battlestar fame. This is not a lightning deal, so the $2 price could last for a while or end shortly. Can’t go wrong for $2!

April 19-25: 15% off Gap, BR, Aero, Old Navy, Spa Finder gift cards
Happening automatically in-store, at Staples, between the open on April 19 and the close on Saturday April 25 in 2015, you get 15% off the purchase price of gifts from the Gap family of companies (Gap, Old Navy, Banana Republic), Aero and Spafinder.

April 19-25: Buy $300+ Mastercard Gift Cards get $20 Staples GC via Easy Rebate
If you like the guaranteed return of investment of the Staples gift card promotions, they are coming back during the April 19-25 (2015) shopping week at Staples brick and mortar stores. You purchase $300 or more in Mastercard Gift Card and you can receive a $20 Staples Gift Card via Easy Rebate (rebate submitted online, no need to be mailing things).
The Mastercards have a mandatory activation fee, so in order for this to be profitable, you need to get to $300 with two gift cards (eg $200 + $100). If you need three gift cards to get to $300, the activation fee is too close to the $20 gift card bonus, washing the deal.
Starbucks: 25% on Home Brewing (Rewards members start early)

Spend $50 or more and get $25 back as a statement credit. Not only that, but you can use this offer up to three times during the promotional period which ends 6/30/15.

April 15 – May 12 (12-4pm daily): 50% off Javiva
At Peet’s Coffee stores, between April 15 (tax day blues/parties) and May 12 in 2015, and only during the 12pm to 4pm local time hours, you can get 50% off their Javiva drinks. Javiva is a rebooted name for what they used to call Freddos, and some may know with the Starbuck-esque name of frappuccinos. Anyway, during this promotion, you just mention it to the baristas or worse come to worse, show the email informing you of this promotion, and you’ll get 50% off your Javiva drink. In most cases, the baristas will do this automatically since this offer does not require a coupon code from the consumer’s perspective.
This works with any drink size and any flavor, so you don’t have to get a tiny or a giant drink to get the half off discount. Unlike the previously mentioned Starbucks offer, you can use this as many times as you like during this promotional period. Remember though, this is only good between 12-4pm local time.
April 14-20: 50% off Breakfast Sandwich with Promo code (SBUX)
At Starbucks, between April 14-20 in 2015, you can get half off a breakfast sandwich if you received an email or app inbox message from Starbucks telling you you are eligible for this offer. You show the barista the 4-digit promo code that activates the promotion. This promotion can only be used once during this promotional period. Since they recently added a couple of new breakfast sandwiches, this is a lower risk way to try them out without using up your earned Rewards on them. Save those for things you already know you like 🙂

HP Stream 13 Laptop with T-Mo 4G cellular for $229 [W8]
The 13.3″ HP Stream 13 Windows 8.1 laptop with T-Mobile 4G cellular is currently on sale for $229 with free shipping, with a limit of three per customer, at Amazon.com by Amazon actual. It may look Chromebook-ish but it’s really a Windows 8.1 laptop with 32GB on-board solid state storage, not a spinning hard disk. Other specs include 2GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics, the obligatory Windows laptop 1366 x 768 screen resolution, and such.
It comes with a variety of freebies as well. For the life of the device, T-Mobile gives you 200MB of data per month. Not a lot of data but free is free. You can optionally sign up for a T-Mo data plan, but you don’t have to. This is not a contract laptop.
The other freebies include a $25 Microsoft Store app credit (a smart idea to get people buying Metro apps), and for one year you get 1TB of OneDrive and Office 365. After the one year, the OneDrive goes back to the default free service levels, and you no longer have access to Office 365.

There are a couple of catches: if you are big fan of streaming video, this may be a deal killer, their terms state “Video streaming limited to 3G speeds”.
