Ten 50-packs of Canon GP-701 Glossy 4×6″ photo paper for $10 w/free S&H (total 500 sheets!)

The official Canon USA store has a paper doorbuster deal, buy one 50-pack of 4×6 photo paper (model GP-701, glossy), get NINE (9) of them FREE. The price for one is $10 with free shipping. So you get ten 50-packs for $10 with free shipping. This is a limited time offer (these often sell out before they expire).

20pk Sony single-use Carbon-Zinc AA batteries for $5

If you are a fan of Carbon Zinc single-use batteries, the 20-pack of Sony heavy duty carbon zinc single-use AA batteries (model SUM3NLB20A) are on sale for $4.99 per 20-pack at Amazon by Amazon itself. You can buy as many 20-packs as you like within reason (the limit is 27 20-packs per customer).

These are however an ADD-ON item, so your order total must be $25+ of products that sold and shipped by Amazon or fulfilled by Amazon. You can get to $25+ with any combination of products, eg five 20-packs. If you are close to $25 and need ideas to get over the hump, check the Elsewhere at Amazon section in the daily lightning deal round-ups. Once you clear the $25 limit, the usual free shipping terms apply, free 2-day for Prime or with a $35+ order for non-Prime (or $25+ in books).

On the other hand if you need AAA batteries, their 20-pack of AAAs (single-use, Carbon Zinc too) is going for $5.38 but it is not an Add-ON item, so if you are a Prime member, you can buy one 20-pack and still get free 2-day shipping. The shipping estimate for these is 1-2 months.

Tiered Barnes & Noble coupon: 10% to 20% off depending on order total

If you want to buy camera or photography (or any other) books that have the same prices everywhere or rarely get discounted, there is a new tiered coupon promotion at the Barnes and Noble website. Remember, Borders ain’t walkin’ through that doo’ again, so if you like the idea of national B&M bookstores, B&N is what’s left. Coupon code BNMAR100 gets you discounts until March 15 (2017) depending on your order total:

+ 10% off orders of $35+
+ 15% off orders of $60+
+ 20% orders of $100+
+ the usual exclusions apply
+ free shipping with $25+ orders or if you are a paying member
