There’s nothing wrong with snagging a great deal with an additional $10 off! This is a good move for Google, considering competition with a major competitor, PayPal. Google hopes to raise awareness of Google Checkout, and expand it further into the online community. [news.com]

Mark your calendars for Feb. 24th because if you are in the market for a Slim PS2 for cheap, well then that day will be the day! An advanced Target ad for the week beginning February 24 lists a base slimline PlayStation 2 console for $99. It’s unknown if the price reduction will be exclusive to Target stores or if it is retail wide.
Retailers usually don’t place temporary sales on hardware, so we’re hoping for the latter. Either way, $99 PS2 at Target on February 24. Better mark your calendars if you still have yet to pick up a PS2. [Exophase]
