The lady on the phone says it was offered a year ago? Not recently? The link led to an inactive page so I couldn't say much more to her about it
Oh dear, yes, I see you are referring to an offer that was posted in 2015 and shows an expiry date of Sept. 10, 2015. The current offer available at Best Buy is this one, posted on Sept. 5th, 2016. http://bit.ly/2c7gXXc It ends on the 8th!
