Fry’s Black Friday Teaser: Beats Solo 2 for $95 with Promo Code on Thanksgiving Day (online)

Fry’s is joining the Black Friday Song and Dance teaser party by revealing some of their promo code offers for that week. On Thursday only (Thanksgiving Day, online-only since their stores are closed), they will be offering the Beats Solo 2 closed-back on-ears for $95 in six color schemes when you use your unique promo code found in their e-mail newsletters.

It looks like the Solo 2 are going to be Black Friday “bait” at multiple stores. These are the ones that made it to the Inner Fidelity Wall of Fame and created a temporary existential crisis among some audiophile circles.

Monday Fry’s Promo Codes: Pono DAP for $250 [B&M only]

Neil Young’s PONO digital audio player will return as one of the Fry’s Electronics promo code offers for $250 for Monday 11/16/15, good in-store only, so you have to be physically near a Fry’s store to be able to get it. No rainchecks, with a limit of one per customer. The promo codes are individualized and included in their email subscription e-newsletters.

Thursday Fry’s Promo codes at B&M: Sennheiser RS 120 for $58

If you have a Fry’s Electronics brick and mortar stores near you, and if you are subscribed to their email newsletters (free to join along), their promo codes (which are unique to each email subscriber) for Thursday 11/12/15 include the new condition Sennheiser RS 120 wireless (RF technology) headphones for $58, with a limit of one per customer. No rainchecks.

The RS 120 includes one pair of headphones and one transmitter/charging base. You can optionally add additional headphones to it (you have to buy those).

Being a B&M-only offer, it’s unlikely they will be price-matched by Amazon where they go for $70 in new condition or $59 refurbished and average 4.1 out of 5 based on over 9000 customer reviews. If curious, your questions may have been answered multiple times already, they have 1000+ of them answered (!).

Coupon: $6 off Brainwavz Delta IEMs ($13.50 or $16.50 w/mic&remote)

The coupon is good when the seller is Brainwavz Audio, with the order fulfilled by Amazon, so it is eligible for Prime shipping. As of the time of writing, the after-coupon prices are $13.50 and $16.50 respectively.

The former are available in two colors, while the latter in six colors. All together they average 3.8 out of 5 based on 1500+ customer reviews and have 30+ questions answered.

[DEAD] Tue B&M: Beats Solo 2 On-Ears for $126 w/Fry’s promo codes

This daily deal expired, but this still holds:

CAUTION when shopping Beats Solo 2 at Amazon: in recent weeks, Amazon added a certified refurbished listing for these headphones. Unfortunately the product names for most of the colors do not include “certified refurbished”, so someone may think that they are new condition if they don’t carefully read the listings. One simple way to sort them out is to look at the number of reviews:

+ the new condition have over 1550 customer reviews
+ the certified refurbished have only 42 reviews
