Staples has had some pretty good deals on 
scanners lately, including a visioneer model 
(8100) that winds up around $5 after a $60 rebate 
if you use the $15 off $75 coupon on the in-store 
specials section of their site. (and considering 
that staples also pricematches internet stores, 
you might be able to get away with having them 
PAY you to buy it!)
