Wish that deal was available in Australia
I've been thinking of getting a Kobo ereader for my daughter, the only person in my family without an ereader (although she still has a stack of pbooks to get through atm anyway) . |

If you don't mind a white one, Googling for Kobo Mini and Carmichael's can get you one for $49.99.
Not a big chain and only two stores in Louisville, so supplies are probably quite limited. Last edited by silasgreenback; 01-24-2013 at 09:58 PM. |

Bestbuy.com has the lower price as well I see. I assume that would carry through to the actual stores as well.

Thanks for the link, PeterT, you did a better job than Kobo did in marketing these!
camiller, I think Best Buy only carries them in Canada? |

Powells books in Portland has an ad for this on their homepage linking to here for purchasing. Physical locations listed as well for anyone local.
They also mention the free cover: Quote:
