During this year’s Labor Day sales I’ve been keeping a particularly close eye on gaming laptop discounts, and I’ve just spotted a saving that’s definitely worth getting excited about courtesy of Dell.
For a limited time, the Dell G16 Gaming Laptop is on sale for $930 at Dell. That’s a sizeable $369 off its full retail price of $1,299, and it’s most certainly one of the best Labor Day laptop deals you can get right now. To get this reduced price you will need to use coupon code "ARMMPPS" at checkout. This takes an extra $19 off, which is an appreciated additional savings alongside the standard $350 off deal.
