Today for military only, aafes.com takes 20% off one item via coupon code "9189vip1". (The coupon yields a maximum discount of $500.) It's the best percent-off discount we've seen from the Army and Air Force Exchange Service this year. Shipping starts at $4.99, or spend $79 or more to qualify for free shipping. It excludes MCSS, gift cards, gift certificates, select Bose items, phone cards, extended service plans, special orders, specialty stores, and online mall purchases. Deal ends November 26.

A best bet is the Canon EOS 5D Mark II 21.1-Megapixel Digital SLR Camera Body (pictured) for $2,549. The coupon above cuts it to $2,049. With free shipping, that's $350 below last week's mention and the lowest total price we've ever seen for this camera. The 5D Mark II features a 3" LCD, 3.9 frames per second burst mode, "Live View" (for framing pictures with the LCD), 30fps 1080p HD video capture with sound (unusual for an SLR), USB 2.0 connectivity, magnesium alloy exterior, and EOS Integrated Cleaning system which includes a self-cleaning sensor unit.
