Polaroid PIC-300 Instant Camera for $50 w/FS

Fuji is not the only one making instant cameras in their surprise renaissance, the Polaroid naming rights owners are too and still-surviving the retail apocalypse JC Penney is offering the black color scheme of the Polaroid PIC-300 Instant Camera for $50 with free store pickup (where available/possible) or with free shipping (on all orders over $49).

They managed to outprice everyone, B&H Photo has it for $60, Amazon for $70.

You can get 20 exposures (two 10-packs) for $18 by Amazon itself (limit two) and at B&H Photo, but free shipping is conditional. At Amazon, you have to be a Prime member or place a $25+ order. At B&H, you need a $49+ order. Adorama offers it for $20 with free shipping without a minimum purchase requirement.
