Amazon has kicked off another round of Kindle sales for the next week. They also have Fire tablets on sale, the 7 and 8-inch models (the Fire HD 10 is likely getting replaced with a new model next week).
The Kindle Paperwhite is marked down to $89.99 ($40 off) for the 8GB version and $114.99 ($45 off) for the 32GB model, the entry-level Kindle is $64.99 ($25 off), and the previous generation Kindle Oasis starts at $174.99 ($75 off).
They also have the cellular version of the Kindle Oasis 2 marked down to its lowest price ever at $251.99, which is $98 off the regular price.
But on the negative side, the sale is once again exclusively for Amazon Prime members. It’s been over 3 months since Amazon has had a Kindle sale for non-Prime members.
If you aren’t a Prime member and still want to get a good deal on a Kindle, you can always use Amazon’s 30-day free trial for Prime and then cancel before the end of the trial.
It’s a bit of a hassle to deal with but it’s not very fair that Kindles are only going on sale for Prime members lately.
The deals end at 5:00 pm PDT on September 22nd, 2019.
Hi. Any insights/thoughts about the anticipated features of the updated Fire HD Tablet?
Would you wait for the update or buy the 2017 model this week?
Thanks.
Definitely wait. Even if you end up not caring about the upgrades on the new one, the price will surely go down on the old one next week. They often put it on sale for $99, surprised it’s not right now, but that’ll probably change next week.
Thanks very much Nathan.
