Not an advert for Walmart Canada but...
...they are (for a limited time), selling black and white Kobos for $128.
My flyer has the provinces/territories EL-ON-NB-PEI-NS-NL-MB-SK-AB-BC listed in tiny print at the bottom of the page. Flyer is valid from tomorrow (Fri Aug 6) to Aug 12. Disclosure - I do not, and have never worked for Walmart. (At 44, I think that I'm still too young...) Hope you get some bargains! God Bless Paul |

Wow. Presumably no-one is taking a loss on these things, which gives you an idea of the potential for Kobo to drop prices to stay competitive.
