    Canon Powershot SD1200 IS (other camera/camcorder deals too) - SD1200 is $100 or $105 AC and after $50 Gift card Rebate - OR as low as $80 for some
    For those who may have missed the deal HERE for this camera or are looking to get it cheaper, this is a good deal (IN-STORE or ONLINE):

    Staples will have the SD1200 camera for $180. You also get a $50 Gift Card Rebate and can use Staples/Competitor's coupons. [shoplocal.com]

    Final price (if you have legitimate $25 or $30 off coupons):
    $180 - $25 or $30 coupon (from Staples) - $50 Staples Gift Card via Easy Rebate = $100 - $105 (+tax) or $80 with the loyalty rebate below
    1. ** others mentioned ways of getting this even lower (I have an AMEX SIMPLY CASH card that gives me 5% back on all office supply store purchases - and 5% off cell phone bill and 3% on all gas), so your personal total will vary.
    2. ** for those who don't have/can't find any legitimate Staples coupons, use this 10% off (thank you DEEDS): COUPON LINK

    This is a better price for the same camera posted here. These are Staples gift cards which you get 1+ month after doing the rebate online and are supereasy to turn into cash with the frequent free-after-rebate (FAR) deals...where you can buy the FAR thing(s) w/ the gift card and get a check back by rebate.


    For those who can do the below rebate, price will be $80 or so

    *** Thank you to PIRATEGNOME (from other post) for posting this additional $20 rebate for current owners of certain Canon Cameras (see this REBATE INFORMATION)

    This would make the camera approx. $80 or so after Canon Rebate

    *** USING THE SAME LOGIC/PROCESS, THE the CAMCORDERS would be as low as $45 and the Canon SD780 would be approx. $120 or $100 with the Loyalty rebate. ***

    CAMCORDER DEALS

    Canon SD780: 199.99 - 30 off 150 coupon - 50 Gift Card Rebate to use in future = 120 + tax (take another $20 off for rebate)
    (this was posted in the Staples Ad post and... later separately HERE, thanks ANDYK)

    This can and should be used by you to post updated deal information.
    Be sure to read this because it may contain answers to your questions!
    From the OP: Thank you to TOJO_M for the following frames of reference (no pun intended):

    A few points important points although indicate that the SD1200 can take better photos compared to the SD780:
    1) SD1200 has 10MP while SD 780 has 12 MP. Both have the same sensor size (1/2.3") which means that the SD1200 should perform better in low light conditions.
    2) SD1200 has a maximum aperture of f/2.8 while SD 780 has f/3.2 --> Means SD1200 will again perform better in low light. Plus it also means you have better chances of getting bokehs with SD1200.
    3) SD1200 has a significantly faster burst rate of 1.4fps vs only 0.8fps for the SD780.

    However, SD780 has HD movie mode while SD1200 only has Standard definition and SD780 is also more compact and hence better looking (subjective though).

    It depends on what you are looking at while purchasing a camera..better movies or better photographs. (In all honestly, if I did not have a dedicated High Def camcorder, I would go in for the SD780 for the excellent movie mode and would be ready to compromise on the slightly lesser image quality)

    Make sure to file your easy rebate for the $50 gift card by using the rebate offer number: 09-11303

    Don't forget that if you are upgrading from another Canon that you already registered, Canon has a loyalty program that could give you another $20 rebate. LINKY [canon.com]

    what do you mean by $50 easy rebate? I thought its a $50 gift card for staples only. Also what do you mean by competitors coupons?

    $80 is almost good enough to buy this with no purpose. Wish it wasn't a gift card.

    I wonder if you can do this online.

    No. SD780 is smaller and has a much nicer camera body, and when it came out was $100 more than SD1200. In recent releases, the more digits a Canon model has, in general it's lower end (e.g., SD1000-1200, EOS 1000D)

    Perhaps they'll let you choose between the gift card or check during the EasyRebates submission process (like they have been allowing with the prepaid card offers).
