The 25% coupon code (extended to Sunday) doesn't work for accessories or services (i.e. warranty extension) though the 8% cashback apparently does.
However the Ultrabase 3 is offered as both an accessory (for $220) and as a component (for $200) and the latter does reduce to $150, less than Google Product can find it. With the coupon, the Ultrabase 3 is cheaper than 3rd-party but only from the components tab. However the Notebook Expansion section of the Accessories tab seems to list several docking stations that don't apply. Are any of these actually an option for the X220? The listings themselves say not, yet there they are. - ThinkPad Port Replicator Series 3 - ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3: Compatible with ThinkPad T400s/T410/T410s/T510/L412/L512 series notebooks (does not support earlier ThinkPad models R60/ R61/R400/R500), Lenovo Easy Reach Monitor Stand (55Y9258).
