If you've graduated from college, check to see if your school has an alumni association email service. That will give you a [email protected] address you can set to forward to your main address. Dunno if that still works, but it did for me a couple years ago.


I've noticed a lot more sites have added more scripting to the logins, and I need to (temporarily) disable my ad blockers to be able to login to them. It sucks, but they seem to work fine if I re-enable the ad blockers after logging in.


That really depends on how you plan to use it. 6 GB is fine if you sit there using just a few apps at a time for hours. 8 GB is better if you like to flip between a dozen or two apps during that time. The 6 GB can do it, but eventually it'll run out of memory and will auto-close the oldest app. And it'll take longer when you switch to that app.

The bigger issue I think is 128 GB of storage. We're approaching the point where just the OS and the apps most people install will eat up over half of that. Add in some pictures, videos, music, and you will hit 128 GB pretty quickly. Granted you are less likely to add those to a tablet. But if any of your apps use a large cache (my mom's messaging app keeps all the pics and videos her friends send her in cache), you'll be better off with the 256 GB. The industry really should've switched to 256 GB as the default minimum within the last couple years. But they've been dragging their feet because of the sky high memory prices.


Sigh. California has this wonderful thing where you have to pay sales tax on the normal retail price of what you buy. If something is normally $1000, and you find a fantastic deal on it for $300, you still have to pay tax on $1000. Yes it sucks. Yes it contradicts everything about economics (the value of the taxable transaction is the amount of money exchanged, not some made-up value at which no transaction would occur). Don't let what happened to Californians happen to you. Stay vigilant so you can catch wind if your legislators propose anything like it, and fight them tooth and nail over it.

Samsung's Galaxy Tab A11+ is drawing attention as a budget 11 inch Android tablet with 7 years of updates, expandable storage, and an 8GB RAM option that feels solid for everyday use. The deal price is far better through EPP, EDU, AAA, or Capital One offers than on Amazon, and some checkout paths also surface bundle discounts or cash back that push the total lower. The main cautions are inconsistent Samsung login and pricing behavior, plus reports that the WiFi model may use an MT8775 chip rather than the expected Dimensity 7300. It looks like a practical pick if you want long support and low out of pocket cost.

  • The AAA member link can apply additional discounts and still show free shipping in cart estimates.

  • The deal can produce a lower out-the-door price when rewards are applied at checkout.

  • The tablet can be paired with Galaxy Buds 3 FE through the bundle option for a combined purchase.

Got this tablet, it's a great deal for the base model (125). It does feel like it's worth between 150 to 200 dollars. Does not feel like a 300 dollar tablet but then again in today's electronic device prices I suppose it actually is 300 (with the base ipad now going for 450). Got the previous A9+ base model with the metro by t-mobile deal for around 40 or so and that tablet does feel like 40 is the right price for it (would have sent it back if I bought it at it's more normal retail price of about 150 to 200). It is very sluggish even for just watching videos and the android OS itself occasionally crashes (must be the 4Gb of RAM in this base version). While this tablet is by no means ultra fast it is fast enough to navigate videos on youtube and Amazon prime without feeling like the scrolling stutters or that when hitting play or forwarding rewinding on a video would glitch which I feel is the bare minimum for a tablet (the previous version does stutter just scrolling and stutters when changing scene or forwarding on videos by comparison). Updated all the way to OneUI 8.5.

My former college gives every student an edu email for life. I just looked up the info and confirmed that it is called NetID.
Current students have student id. Former students get NetID.
The edu email is actually gmail but the login is through NetID. I remember years ago, I received a post card to remind me to register for the edu account as an alumni. It was optional. I am glad I did it.
I'm not sure how far back you've been reading but I'm not one suggesting that colleges not providing .edu addresses is the norm. It appears to be the exception. However I did concede that some might forgo legacy access for former students. But even those cases are likely few and far between...unless they are really small and / or low tech institutions.

TLDR: a few people seem to be getting really stuck in the weeds regarding a bunch of what-if hypotheticals.

S10 Lite shows $190 in EPP site. It is 50% more than the $125 price for A11+. But offers a premium build and performance compared to A11+ if anyone interested.

Google searched "Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ vs S10 Lite" Below is the AI Overview.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ (typically under $200) is a superior budget media and gaming device, while the Tab S10 Lite (around $260-$300) is better for productivity and note-taking due to its included S Pen, brighter display, and slightly stronger GPU.

Key Comparisons

Performance: The A11+ features the MediaTek Dimensity 7300, which actually outperforms the S10 Lite's Exynos 1380 in everyday multitasking and gaming (e.g., Fortnite runs smoother on the A11+).

Display: Both are 11-inch LCDs with 90Hz refresh rates, but the S10 Lite is brighter (600 nits vs. 480 nits) and has a slightly higher resolution (2112 x 1320 vs. 1920 x 1200).

The S Pen: The S10 Lite includes the S Pen in the box, making it the clear choice for drawing or studying. The A11+ does not support an active stylus.

Battery: The S10 Lite has a larger 8,000 mAh battery compared to the A11+'s 7,040 mAh battery, though the A11+ is highly energy-efficient.

Features: The A11+ includes a 3.5mm headphone jack and quad speakers, whereas the S10 Lite only has dual speakers but features pogo pins for physical keyboard cases.

Which to Choose?

Get the Galaxy Tab A11+ if your primary use cases are media consumption, YouTube, and light gaming. It offers better processing power and value for the price.

Get the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite if you need a stylus for creative work, want a slightly brighter and higher-resolution screen, or prefer to attach official keyboard cases.

You can change the csc on A9+ to xaa and do a factory reset. No more bloatwares. It will run faster.

Careful, A11+ Wifi does not have 7300 processor. Instead, it runs on MT8775 which is inferior to 7300.

I also bought the wifi variant thinking it runs on 7300 but did some more research. I'll still test the MT8775 variant to see if it's sufficient for my usage. Just fyi.

I did this and Samsung just gives an access error/re-verify when I go through perkspot, huh.
Did you use a new email to create the account on perkspot? And then use that same email for the samsung account? That's what I did. Like the email I used to make brand new perkspot and samung accounts, was a completely new email that wasn't tied to any previous samsung or perkspot emails. They were also the same email instead of using different emails for the different accounts.

Yep looks like it is dead now. I was a little surprised it lasted this long for this price.
