I'm pretty sure it'll go on sale shortly. It was $39 last Black Friday.

I added you to the Wish List.

Really?? $39 would be great! There’s hope then. And thanks for adding me to the list.

Hey everyone, I'm a little late getting back - away from my computer all day today. Thanks for the input on the regular Kindle vs Paperwhite. I'm not in desperate need of something new, and decided to give it a pass.

Thanks to all who educated me!

So basically it's become Cyber Saturday with a 2 - 3 day extension at this point.

Give it a decade and Cyber Monday deals will start on November 1st and last till December 24th. (Black Friday will start in June.)

I like that I'm pretty much done with Black Friday shopping, and it isn't even Black Friday yet!

More streaming deals:

Hulu will again offer 12 mos at 99 cents/mo; deal starts at midnight on Thanksgiving Day and is good through 11:59 PM PT on Cyber Monday, November 29 for both new and eligible returning subscribers. No link as it's not live yet.

Amazon Prime Video again has a bunch of add-on channels (Showtime, Starz, Epix, Lifetime, Paramount, etc.) for 99 cents/mo for the first two months.

If you're a subscriber to YouTube TV, it has some of the same add-ons, with the same pricing.

I grabbed these Prime Video add-ons - History Vault, AcornTV, ScreenPix, Sundance, The Great Courses Signature Collection. So my Black Friday shopping so far is $9.90!

Even more streaming deals:
Wondrium (formerly The Great Courses Plus) $10/month billed quarterly or annually for 1st year compared with $20/month regular price. I like the service, hate the new name. Who comes up with these things??? Anyway, this is the unlimited streaming service; TheGreatCourses.com is the one where you buy the classes to stream or on DVD.

Deezer Premium 25% off monthly $9.99 plan if billed annually $89.91 (equivalent $7.49/month). I am just finishing up a free 6 month trial on Deezer and I like it as an alternative to Spotify, has voice control through Alexa and Google Assistant. Deezer HiFi @ $14.99/month not discounted.
Link

Tidal (more music streaming) $1 for first 3 months of Premium, HiFi or HiFi Family through Best Buy. Renews at regular rates $9.99, $14.99 or $22.49 so cancel before 3 months are up. Annual plans also available through Best Buy $79.99 for HiFi Premium, $119.99 for HiFi or HiFi Family. Alexa voice control but can only cast to Google Assistant enabled speakers. I like Tidal's mixes - 8 different ones based on artists and music genres or decades that you "like"; the algorithms seem to read my mind and my mood...
Link

Craftsy $1 for 1st month with coupon code $1firstmonth renews @ $7.99/month thereafter. Unlimited streaming of 1500+ classes in 16 categories: Quilt Knit Sew Crochet Embroider Cake Decorating Bake Cook Draw Paint Photography Writing Paper Crafts Jewelry Making Gardening Woodworking. Note that Wondrium now includes a bunch of Craftsy classes if that subscription suits your needs better.

MHz Choice - Foreign movies and TV shows with English subtitles. Coupon code BLACK21 gets you 50% off for 6 months ($3.99 instead of $7.99/month). Start with a 7-day free trial. Annual plan is $89.99. "2500+ hours of binge worthy episodes" include all 37 episodes of Montalbano, 2 seasons of The Young Montalbano, 20 episodes of Brunetti Mysteries, 9 seasons of Maigret, 2 seasons of Mary Higgins Clarke Mysteries, 2 seasons of Wallander with Krister Henriksson in the leading role, 4 episodes with Rolf Lassgård as Wallander, and many many more delightful shows I never knew existed. Fantastic scenery, pick up a few words of French, Italian, German, Swedish and prepare for your next European trip!

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!

The .99 for Hulu basic with ads was active last night, just signed up.
Paperwhite vs Basic Kindle: Wife got the basic, I have the Paperwhite. The resolution is noticeable on small text. But if you like your fonts size 8 or larger like I do, the resolution is not much of an issue. If they drop the basic down to $39 I'm picking one up as a backup device and something I wouldn't mind carrying about with me. Both the Paperwhite and Basic Kindle are nice devices. (Note I have the previous, not the brand new Paperwhite released).

Edit: just realized the basic Kindle is already $40 off regular price. Will be surprised if they drop it further, especially as they are sold out of black right now. I went ahead and bought a white one with a moko case since white is in stock and I like that white moko case with the tree on it.
