Lenovo IdeaPad A1 Tablet: $229 at Lenovo
Lenovo’s 7-inch IdeaPad A1 Android tablet gets a deep price cut, dropping from $349 down to $229 for the two-gigabyte version. For just $20 more, you can get the 16-gigabyte version in white or black, which used to cost $399.
Sharp 40-inch 1080p TV: $430 at Walmart
Walmart is selling a 40-inch Sharp TV with 1080p resolution for $430, which includes free site-to-store shipping. The same set costs $500 and up elsewhere.
The TV sports three HDMI inputs, a 176-degree viewing angle, 16-watt speakers and a 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio.
Contract-free Verizon Palm Pixi Plus smartphone: $36 at Amazon
If you need to replace your lost, stolen or water-damaged Verizon smartphone but you’re not due for a low-cost upgrade, the Palm Pixi Plus might be able to hold you over for a while. Amazon is selling it for just $36, with no need for a contract extension.
Flip MinoHD camcorder: $50 at Best Buy
True story: This thing cost $230 when it first came out. The once-popular line of Flip camcorders has seen its star fizzle somewhat thanks to smartphone video recording, but if you’re looking for an easy to use and pocketable portable to handle standalone video, $50 for the MinoHD is hard to beat.
Auria 32-inch 1080p LED-backlit TV: $249 at Newegg
Newegg is selling a 32-inch LED-backlit TV for just $249, which is a good deal for an LED-backlit set. Despite its screen size, the TV weighs 22.5 pounds, making it a good choice for wall-mounting.
Free shipping is included, as well.
