eBook Bargains: Top Tips for Black Friday

The biggest and most frantic holiday sales season is upon us, and everyone is strategizing ways to score the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals. Over the Black Friday weekend, some of the most lucrative bargains of the entire year will be up for grabs. That includes products for e-book readers, so here are some timely tips to help make your bargain hunting more successful.

Under the Radar Deals

Some of the best bargains of all will be found by savvy shoppers who buy before the actual official Black Friday kick-off. That’s because retailers have, in recent years, expanded the traditional one day sale into weeks of promotions and special offerings.

But keep an eye out for these lesser-known sales that occur both before and after Black Friday weekend. They may fly under the radar, but they still represent once-a-year savings opportunities if you’re in the market for e-books, an e-reader gadget or related products and accessories.

Amazon Giveaways

Already Amazon is doing a gigantic special giveaway promotion. Every day leading up to Black Friday, prizes will be awarded to those people who have the Amazon app. There is absolutely no purchase necessary, and you can download the app just by going to “amazon.com/app” from your mobile browser.

Fans of e-books are winning some great goodies, too. Recent prizes included MacBook Pro, Dell Chromebook, and Google Pixelbook computers as well as the new Apple iPad Pro. Snag one of those devices and you can enjoy built-in e-book reading capability, plus a host of other awesome features.

Amazon Price Changes

Staying on top of such pricing for the items you have on your shopping list can help immensely. That’s particularly true for Amazon. Most experts believe, based on previous years, that at one time or another every single Kindle model will be discounted during the Black Friday sales season.

Because Amazon is not only the world’s biggest bookstore but also the planet’s most popular retailer, it pays to stay informed about what’s happening there. One of the most convenient and portable ways to do that is to download the Amazon App. Once you have the free app, you can be instantly notified about Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals.

Resources to Help Monitor Black Friday Sales

Another good resource for tracking price changes at online retailers including Amazon is the website Honey.  It’s also possible to track changes in prices on Amazon UK through the UK-based website CamelCamelCamel.

Two of the other biggest retailers participating in Black Friday markdowns are Walmart and Best Buy, which both sell e-readers and other devices used as e-readers. Visit their websites to see the latest news on bargains and sales. Or you can visit Best Black Friday, a website that collects Black Friday advertisements from multiple big box stores and displays them on its home page.

Barnes &Noble Unveils a New Nook

Barnes & Noble has nearly fallen off the map in recent years in terms of its e-reader products, despite the fact that it still has a large and popular chain of brick and mortar bookstores. But now it’s getting back in the game, introducing a brand new 10.1-inch Nook Tablet.

The full HD display is more than 10 inches large, with 1920 x 1200 pixels, and the battery offers more than eight hours of reading, web browsing, or video watching on a single charge. Other notable features include Wi-Fi  connectivity, front and rear cameras, and 32 gigs of memory with the ability to upgrade with up to 256 more gigs. The new Nook will be available for pre-sale online until it goes on official sale in November 14th, for $129.

10.1-Inch Nook Sale & Cookbook Bundle

But you may want to wait until after the official release date, because starting on November 22 and running through December 26, the Nook version 10.1 will be available for a special holiday sales price of  $119.99.

During that same time period, Barnes & Noble is offering a cookbook bundle promotion. Customers can purchase the Nook 10.1 with a charging dock for $159.99, and receive $50 worth of Good Housekeeping eCookbooks with hundreds of delicious recipes, while supplies last (total value of $214.94).
