Say “goodbye” to summer…and “hello!” to savings on computers, HP toner and ink cartridges

Connecting Point's "Say Goodbye to Summer Sale" - though September 30th, 2013It’s time.

Time to turn our backs on long, sunny days. Time to bid farewell to warm lakes and tanlines and charcoal-grilled burgers. It’s time to say “so long” – to summer.

And Connecting Point wants to say it with a sale

  • Get a $30 gift card of your choice (TJX, Home Depot, or Dairy Queen) when you buy two of the same qualifying HP LaserJet toner cartridges.*
  • Get $20 mail-in rebate when you buy an HP LaserJet toner cartridge with the purchase of a qualifying HP LaserJet or ColorJet laser printer.*
  • Get a $15 Kohl’s gift card with purchase of $99 or more in eligible HP ink cartridges.*

So let’s say “goodbye” to summer – but say “hello” to savings during Connecting Point’s “So Long to Summer Sale.” But you’ll need to hurry – like the leaves clinging to the trees, this sale won’t be around for long: It all ends on Monday, September 30th.

* Some restrictions apply. See in-store for details.  **Gift Card may not be used toward initial purchase. We will mail it to you within 48 hours of your qualifying purchase.

Apple press event Tuesday, Sept. 10, 10am PDT: Follow it LIVE at these links

Apple press event invitation - September 10, 2013

Apple will be hosting a press event Tuesday morning at its Cupertino campus. The invitations featured the above graphic, hinting at something…well, colorful? The rumor mills have been grinding away for weeks, with most knowledgeable sources believing the event will offer up new iPhone news.

For the record, Apple had this to say about it: __________________________.

It doesn’t look like the press event will be streamed live, although a recorded version may be posted later to Apple’s site. But fear not – a veritable army of mainstream and tech journalists will be in the audience, equipped with the heavy artillery of their trade: camera phones, laptops, pen and paper – and typically tenuous Wi-Fi and cellular networks.

Want to track the proceedings at 4 Infinite Loop Town Hall in real time? We recommend one or more (hurrah for multiple tabs and windows in your browser!) of these links:

Apple may buck recent trends and offer coverage of its own – possibly even live streaming video. You should be able to navigate to it via the “Apple Events” page of its website.

UPDATE 09.10.13 2:35PM: As expected, Apple has posted a video of the entire event to its site. You may view it here.
