Right now in the Online Deals section of the forum, there is a thread about a $99.99 refurbished Zune (black only). I ordered 2 last night to go with the 2 new ones I got from Woot for 129.99ea a couple of weeks ago. I'm almost done with the big stuff!!! Yea

My two older sons ages 9 and almost 13 are wanting the ipod nano for Christmas and the iHome thing....do these EVER go on sale, online or in store????

I am lucky - my dd wants an mp3 player, but isn't picky about what kind (whereas my ds HAD to have ipod) so bring on the deals. i am hoping for something 2gb for under $50:cheesy:

Thats my black friday goal this year...to find a cheap MP3 player for my 15 yo son. (He had an IPOD Nano and let a friend borrow it ...and friend lost it!!) No more brand name MP3s being bought here!!!

I am already soooo excited...I love BF!!!:cheesy:

After buying three no name mp3 players for my son, I am thrilled that I got him an iPod last year. The plus of the iPod was the casing. He didn't have friends lose his mp3 players, they would drop them and break them. I have been lucky enough to win/earn two iPod shuffles, I am hoping to get one more to give the only nephew that doesn't have one.:jester:

I bought a little Insignia MP3 player that has 3 full length ballets and about another 100 songs on it, and it's still not full! It cost me about 80$, but I just saw it for 60$. Great sound. No arm band though, which stinks, but I bought the armband for a Sansa and it works fine.

 

Still thinking on getting a little bit more of an upgrade and giving my insignia to my DH.

ipods almost never have deals, because the price is set by apple and no retailer will want to make apple mad by lowering the price. the most i've ever seen it down was 2 dollars at fry's.

 

you will have to look at the ad and see what the store is bundling with it - free travel charger, free case, free itunes downloads, etc.

 

there are apple education discounts if you qualify:

I thought so. I was thinking that they would see any of the old generation ones that they had before the new ones came out in September.

I'm looking to get a mp3 for dd12(13 in feb) and possibly one for dn13. I was going to get dd the new nano, and dn a shuffle, but have seen some others with more gb for less. I have a 60gb ipod, ds17 has a gen2 nano. Can someone let me know how good the Zune and and Sandisk Sansa are? If I can save a little and keep decent quality, I'd rather do that! :D

My dd (12) and DH both have a 1 gig Sandisk Sansa....we got them on BF last year. They work well enough, never had any issues with them other than it's small, DH needs a much larger one, but it was a good starter. We paid $35 for them.
