I personally went for that because I couldn't afford the full price of a Paperwhite in one go and wanted to get Mom the better model. Even $20 off would have been too much at once for me right now. And I'm pretty sure that's what Amazon is aiming for with the deal, people who'd like a nicer Kindle or Kindle Fire but can't quite pay for it up front.
And now to help Dad find her a new tablet he can actually afford. Her 2012 Nexus 7 is starting to get too slow to be usable.  |
You might sign up for the Fry's emails--they are going HOG WILD with sales this year. Most are instore and I forgot to look at your location, but if you're in the US where there is a store, it might be worthwhile. I'm a Tiger Direct associate, but I haven't seen any tablet sales yet (I asked for special notification for e-readers and can add tablets to the list). I'll post here if I see any. Tiger Direct is usually one day or "until supplies run out." So far the Fry's ads have had better savings. They had a laptop yesterday for under 250. The tablet was a Galaxy 4, not a nexus. But they've been sending out some good deals.
