Amazon Summer Sale

[Scrumhalf]

I wish you could delay shipping. I'm going out of town for a couple weeks on Thursday.

You have the option at checkout to downgrade shipping and get credit for future digital media purchases.

But it's still within ~5 days. He needs weeks, lol.

Was hoping to see some good deals on protein/supplements/etc

Can you send it to the address you'll be at? Or a family member? Or a good neighbor/friend? If nothing else, you could pay the extra to overnight it. :grin:

All family lives out of state and my friend that I could trust is going out of town for the weekend Friday.

The overnight might work for a camera flash but it might be a bit expensive for the lawnmower Bouncer had listed. Really need a new one but I don't even know if that's a good deal.

Geeze there are so many different flashes. Beast, Scrum, how do I pick one?

They have several types of protein on sale at 8am.

I don't see any TVs or Amazon Fire Sticks on sale. Doesn't seem to have much from the list anymore.

I'm far from impressed with these "deals"....

I don't know too much about non-Canon brand flashes. I think Youngnuo makes some good ones but some are manual and some are not. Beast may know more about that brand.

I wuould just get a Canon 430EX II. It is $199 which is a great price for a pretty nice flash. It is what I have - I paid 200 bucks for a used 430EX II a couple of years ago. It is powerful enough for most normal usage. Later on, you can get a set of Youngnuo triggers to move the flash off-camera, which is another step in the journey towards managing light.

I picked up a nice digital multimeter on a lightning deal. Needed a better one for work anyway. I was tempted to get a kindle but I don't think it will get much use.

[AvidFisherman]

I am pretty sure the special deals, other than the daily deals, will come up on the lightning deals, they are only generating 30-45 minutes before they start so if you want something in particular you will have to monitor the site all day. I bet they are going to have the TV's later in the day so the people watching for the TV's will have to browse all the other lightning deals and might pick some others up.

The good ones sell out fast too. I was looking at a Kershaw pocket knife and checked back 4 min after it hit and they were all gone.

That is one thing that is sometimes annoying about Amazon. I don't have time to sit on the computer ALL day waiting/hoping.
