Dell AAFES (Military Only) 22% off Alienware/XPS Machines (Including m14x)

Just noticed that AAFES has a 22% discount on dell/Alienware laptops, including the new M14X. The discount is only 2% more than the 20% they just had, but 2% is 2%.



Here are the specs to the base model m14x:



Price $935.22

Intel Core i7 2630QM 2.0GHz (2.9GHz w/Turbo Boost, 6MB Cache)

X294ss1 gets you another $10 off.

With AAFES there is no shipping or tax too!

I bought the 17x R3 through AAFES when it went back up to 20%. Was considering a return/rebuy if it went up to 30% again, but not for 2%. Regardless still a good deal for those eligible. On that note, I wonder what the PM was for heh.

It should say US Military only but at any rate AAFES = Army Air Force Exchange Service. It's a store for US military members/families.



Hopefully when I order my M18X they'll have a nice 30% discount waiting for me.

Afraid not. The Dell discounts are offered through the AAFES' online store. To register for an account, the website verifies military status by checking your social security number.

Yeah I know what you mean, I purchased a 17x at the 20%. I was more posting this because they had the m14x as well.

The PM was clarifying his brother's access to purchase from aafes since he has sworn in, but not shipped to basic yet.

This is awesome! It should also be noted that military retired and dependents can also cash in on this discount. AKA if you can get on base and buy from AAFES in store, you can buy online.
