There are ebook thanksgiving sales all over the place.
Fictionwise with their 40% Micropay rebates
Books on Board with their up to 50%+ discount on lots of ebooks and "we have cheapest prices this weekend" comparison.
eHarlequin with their $5 off purchases > $15.
It's very hard to resist buying more ebooks this Thanksgiving weekend.

BoB 50% sale seems to be the NY Times $9.99 sale, but just renamed to the Thanksgiving sale. If you calculate the discount compared to the list price then most of their NY Times bestsellers are 50%. I was hoping it was more like Fictionwise 40%. This is a shame I was really looking forward to BoB applying 50% off all books like Fictionwise, since I tend to buy most of my books from BoB. I guess I will be spending my money on Fictionwise.

I guess the guys here on mobileread will be horrified to know I bought 3 ebooks from eharlequin to take advantage of the $5 off a $15 or more order.
But when you look on their site you see its not all sappy romance books anymore but there are thrillers by Jason Pinter and Cliff Ryder and a number of pulpy action/adventures series such as Deathlands, Outlanders and Rogue Angel to interest guys.
