      "XXXL" could stand for anything… Dick's Dull Sale, Dick's AWOL Sale, Dick's Bull Sale, Dick's Foul Sale, Dick's Hell Sale, Dick's Soul sale, Dick's a Tool sale?

      Actually probably stands for Dick's FAIL Sale!

    DS batteries are crap. HDMI cables work but are average quality which can be bought even cheaper on Ebay. But ill give it a positive for the energizer discount. Still havent seen how much of a discount it would be cause i havent seen the current price.

    wow! DSE seem to be having a fire sale on branded items, first Verbatim items, now Energizer, if this continues by this time next year(assuming they will still be around!) everything on the shelf will only be DSE branded! a habit no doubt inspired by the genuis who said "let's cut out the branded groceries items and replace them with our own brand" for Woolworths!

      DS sales are not on at the closing stores, which are under the control of liquidators. I laughed at the $13.95 price for 50 packs of Verbatim DVR-Rs at the Logan mega centre DS, against $2 at DS stores the other day.

          They left some of the closing stores off the original list. Those are not part of DS - under liquidators, so not participating in any sales (catalogue or this type) or special deals (eg $2 DVD-R 50 packs, answering machines, hair cut sets etc).

    Bought the MS LifeChat LX-3000 Headset for $5.98 ($20.97 Dick Smith price less $14.99 MS cashback) and MS Wireless Desktop 2000 for $8.98 ($29.97 Dick Smith price less $20.99 MS cashback).

    Can't say I can personally vouch for either of the products but I reckon the end price is pretty good.

    I think best buys would be (if you could find stock, none near me hence why I went with the above items):
    - Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000 for $2.98 ($23.97 DS price less $20.99 MS cashback)
    - MS LifeCam HD-3000 for $2.98 ($17.97 DS price less $14.99 MS cashback)
    - Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500 for $2.98 ($17.97 DS price less $14.99 MS cashback)
    - MS LifeCam VX-2000 Webcam with built in mic for $2.98 ($14.97 DS price less $11.99 MS cashback)
