BUT I didn't receive instant approval. Wonder if it's because I've only been with Sling for 6 months? Probably a good thing since I'll have a few days to ponder my decision rather than making an impulse buy. Actually, it looks like I can get the $150 bonus on any one purchase I make at Sony through 11/30. I betcha we see stand-alone Blu-ray players drop in price before then. Since that's what I really want, maybe I'll hang tight and see what happens... If Sony offers a player at $350, my ultimate cost would be $200. I could deal with that.

And there's free standard (ground) shipping this weekend, too. Mine’s on its way. :)

It was on sale for $100 off and MicroCenter was offering an additional $100 credit if you signed up for their credit card... which I did. There is a benefit of not having to worry about credit scores. :) For comparison, I pulled a similar maneuver last year when I picked up my Xbox.
