Amazon is discounting a number of its Fire tablets and Kindle eReaders for Valentine’s Day. The standout deal from this promotion is the 7-inch Fire 8GB Wi-Fi for just $39.99 with free shipping. This tablet is a steal at its typical price of $50, but a 20% drop makes it a no-brainer. As a further pricing comparison, during Black Friday it was $34.99, which is the only other time we’ve seen it on sale. Amazon’s Fire tablet features a 7-inch 1024 x 600 (171 ppm), 1.3GHz quad-core processor and a pair (rear and front-facing) of cameras. Nearly 28,000 Amazon reviewers rate it 4.2 out of 5 stars. Other deals include:
- Kindle eReader (w/ special offers): $59.99 (Reg. $80)
- Kindle for Kids Bundle (2-yr accident protection + case): $79.99 (Reg. $100)
