Deal Details
I was trying to find a good price for a budget student laptop that could ship fast. One that had Windows, not Chrome (seems like all the cheaper laptops are Chrome OS these days). This fit the bill and at the end of the day, only cost me about ~$266.47 + tax!

Lenovo has a Doorbuster Deal of $110 off it's IdeaPad Flex 3, bringing the price down to only $329.99. Add coupon EXTRAFIVE to get an extra 5% off ($16.50) down to $313.49 + sales tax.

And many Amex cards currently have an offer for 15% cashback at Lenovo.

Plus I'll get another ~$47.02 back from Amex (actually more, since I believe they included the sales tax in your total). That will bring your price down to about ~$266.47.+ sales tax.

Which Amex card do you have that has the 15% cashback offer for Lenovo? I have the Amex Delta Gold and I am only seeing the Dell $100 off $599 offer.

I had it on a Blue Card, an old Simplycash card, and an Amex Amazon Business card.

The 15% off amex offer has to go thru Lenovo.com/PROAmex.

if we use it thru paypal offer, it will be processed as Paypal. Not sure if this will trigger the 15% off lenovo amex offer.

Strange cause it is in stock. Order it at the higher price then decline the charge when it ships and dispute for the difference Smilie

The first rep I spoke to was wrong. It is still in stock, but the order was cancelled because I'm currently overseas and it was flagged for potential fraud. Really sucks because the price is now both higher, and the 10% back is now only 6% back.

Look at it this way, you can slap ChromeOS on it and you magically have a device that runs well and has better specs than chromebooks at the same price point. Thats the reason this ships with Windows 10 S mode, its a neutered version of Windows to be lightweight and compete against ChromeOS. Plus after Amex offer and coupon its $266, and you can stack cashback portals on it, what do you expect for that price?
