European daily deals
Then off we go to the other side of the pond where Amazon Germany is running a sale on various photo printers with prices ranging from 32 to 696 euro from Canon, HP, Epson, Brother. There’s also a few scanners and laser printers. A total of 18 items are participating in the sale.

At the Clearance [formerly Sellout] section of the Woot website there are offering various refurbished 11.6-inch Chromebooks for $100 to $110 in “Scratch & Dent” condition. Great if you want to have a “living room” type of a computer that can be used by everyone for casual web action that is more complicated than what a smartphone screen can handle.

At Amazon Germany there are some tech-adjacent items of potential interest in the storage (as in bags and such, not digital memory) kind. Especially if you are the type who likes to double-bag and triple-bag the most fragile or precious or expensive camera gear…

Until someone comes up with smartphones that include a built-in film camera [who knows, the industry is in an exploratory mood these days], instant film cameras have not much to fear from smartphones ~ unlike the decimated army of digital cameras. Which brings us to the Best Buy daily deals where four different color schemes of the Fujifilm (Fuji for digital, Fujifilm for film) Instax Mini 9 is on sale for $40 with free shipping or free store pickup where available/possible…

Not far from B&H, the latest Adorama snapshot deal is the new condition offered for $159 with free shipping. Snapshot deals are almost like daily deals ~ they are of limited time…

UPDATE: there might be a conspiracy co-ordination, there’s also an Anker sale at the Amazon USA Gold Box…

Meanwhile at the Best Buy daily deals, further down the list, there’s a sale on the Insignia (house brand) Mobile Photography kit for $40 with free shipping or free store pickup where available/possible…

As usual, the Friday B&H Photo daily deals last for 48 hours, so this group runs for 48 instead of 24 hours, going until Saturday at 11:59pm eastern:

Meanwhile at the Friday Amazon USA Gold Box there is a sale on budget Huanuo stands of various kinds (monitors, PC, feet, etc), along with a sale on various Brita water-filter pitchers… Just like razors, you have to also check the price of replacement filters before buying into a “system”…

Speaking of Amazon, while browsing around in their Kindle ebook pages, you may see an offer for a $5 ebook credit when you spend $20+ in Kindle ebooks between January 22-28 in 2019. This offers requires a login to see, and after you login, you have to activate it before it goes live. Thus, no direct link to the offer, but if you start browsing around the Kindle pages, you may see it. I don’t know if it is targeted or not…

Look for this mini banner on top of Kindle-related Amazon product pages:

Adobe offers often make the “rounds” on various retailer websites and this time around it’s the Best Buy deals du jour offering the Photoshop Elements 2019 software for $65… They also have a 33-pack of mixed-size single-use Insigna-brand alkaline-batteries for $11…

Inside the offers at the Amazon USA Gold Box you can find for a limited time the new condition Fire HD 8 tablet going for $50 in the entry-point configuration of 16GB on-board storage [that’s small but look at the price ~ and they also have a microSD slot] with Special Offers, with 1.5GB RAM, etc. This is marked as the “All New” model and I’ve fallen behind on which Fire tablet came out when, so Wikipedia is your best Fire-y friend for these matters. Once upon a time I had the original Fire tablet, which, tech-trivia factoid, had the same outer shell as the Blackberry Playbook. Back when Blackberry made …tablets!?!?!?

For the European Union shoppers, Amazon Germany is having an “up to 20% off” sale on a variety of AmazonBasics products ~ use the various sub-category tabs over there to filter by areas/topics of interest…

At the BEst Buy daily deals it is the return of Sandisk Extreme cards. This time they are offered in the 128GB denomination for $45 per card, in your choice of SDXC or microSDXC… Speaking of which, I hope this new nanoSD thing doesn’t catch on. Enough already 🙂
