Good to know. The daughter has one on her list. She's been ogling mine since I got it.

Chapters is selling the Kobo Touch for $119, Nov 24 - Dec 4 (in-store and online).

Both the Source and Staples are now selling Kindles. The 6" E-Reader (basic Kindle) is $120 the Keyboard is $160 and the Keyboard 3G is $210. The Touch is not available yet. Sadly, most Staples coupons won't apply to e-readers.

Sears flyer starts Friday. Kobo Touch with case and light - $129.99

Francois Caron · 2012-02-10, 07:44 AM

Aluratek ebook reader pro with 100 ebooks, $59.99 at The Source until February 29.

The arrival of the new Kindle 4 seems to have shaken up the industry a bit. This isn't the first time I've seen prices dropping under $100 for competing models since the Kindle's release. And they all pretty much use the same eink display panel. I couldn't tell them apart.

Oooh, I snagged one just in time!

maritimer555 · 2012-09-06, 03:01 PM

My local Wlamart has the Sony 350 on for $48, and the T1 for $68.

Staples have the T1 case for $29.47.

FS has not dropped their price on either and unless wm has stock they will not PM.

Francois Caron · 2012-09-08, 09:17 AM

Prepare to see more price drops as the new Amazon Kindles go up for sale, especially the new paperwhite editions.

Michael DeAbreu · 2012-09-10, 03:16 PM

And the kobo glo.

maritimer555 · 2012-10-04, 08:40 AM

I was in Walmart Bayers LAke Halifax. They still have inventory on the 350 for $48. Its a great little reader.

Finding a case to fit it will be a challenge though.

Aluratek Libre Pro on liquidation for $29 at The Source. It comes with the charger, strap and pouch. 100 build in public domain books. The original Aluratek leather case is also on liqidation for $5. It is basic 5" reader, no Wi-Fi, poor battery life, gray screen, but the text is sharp, the pages turn smoothly, no fading, and it has build in basic mp3 player. It also has SD card slot for up to 32Gb. The build in storage is only 100Mb.
