With Christmas only 1 week away and shipping deadlines drawing near, there are some really good deals on tablets and ereaders.
By far the best current deal is the one Staples is running on the lineup of Nook devices. They’ve got the Nook HD+ for $200! That’s $70 off the regular price. And the regular E Ink Nook Touch is $59. The sale lasts until 12/22:
Amazon isn’t offering sales on any Kindles right now, but Best Buy has the updated version of the original Kindle Fire on sale for $139. That’s $20 off the regular price.
There are a couple of good deals on the 7″ Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. Walmart has refurbished units for $149. Or you can get one brand new for $179 at Newegg.

The Nook HD is almost too good to pass up, then I remember about the $40 HDMI adapter…
Good point :). I still don’t think they even sell them yet.
Hi Nathan I looked on the Staples website and also my current ad . I do not see the nooks on sale at either place. Can you clarify where you saw it at. my zip code is 19148. thanks
It looks like they’ve already ended the sale, and is was supposed to last until Saturday. Staples is so lame, makes me never want to link to them again.
I called them this morning b/c I’d waited until today to order it (I definitely did see it on their site last night) and the manager told me it was only a one-day sale and has no idea whether it will go on sale again. Where did you see it said until Saturday? If it’s from a Staples ad we might be able to push them to honor it.
Yesterday the Staple’s website said the sale was until 12/22 while supplies last. Guess they didn’t have a very big supply… And it was definitely more than a one day sale because I was late hearing about it.
The deal is over already. I am about to buy it! 🙁
I think that Staples deal was only offered by coupon to mobile device users…Staples website now shows “out of stock.”
Looks like the Kobo mini is on sale other places as well starting Dec. 21. I just checked Best Buy and it is only $50.

Thanks! It’s also on sale at Powell’s Books and other indie stores that sell Kobo ereaders.
