Intel Retail Edge "Holiday Deal" i7 4770k starting $79.00+ship, i7 4930k starting $159+ship *Live December 4*

So, we go through this every year, let me explain how this works before this thread gets out of control.

The only way to get in on this deal is if you work for one of the companies below, or if you commit fraud and falsify documents saying you work at one of those places.

Also, if you work in corporate or have a non-retail position at one of the companies listed, while you are not supposed to, you can get an account, get verified, and get in on the deal.

OP, you might want to include something in your original post indicating this so the thread doesn't turn into every other post asking how you can get in on this.

That time of the year again folks! Same as always, only open for retail associates at select stores.

Mark your calendars for December 4—the Holiday Deal will go live that afternoon! DO NOT miss this one because it’s the first time we’re offering a 4th generation Intel® Core™ processor. While you’re waiting, complete the requirements and make sure your employment verification is current.

Who Can Get a Deal

Everyone except Roadies can participate in the Holiday Deal.
Rockstars and Rock Legends get special pricing.


In addition, to participate, your employment verification must be up to date!

Requirements:

1) Be employed by a company on the approved list
2) Submit documentation (paystub usually) that you are employed at said company
3) Once approved, you must be at producer level to qualify for the deals
3a) producer starts at 10,000 points and rockstar is 40,000 points
3b) In order to get points, you must take online multiple choice tests. These can range anywhere from a few clicks to several minutes
4) If you fail the test and retake it multiple times until you get the right answer, you will get half-credit. Example: 500 point test = pass the first time 250 points if you pass it afterwords.

hope this helps.
