Amazing GPS sale at REI.com thru December 1

This one surprised me. REI isn’t typically known for discounting products, but they’ve got some great GPS deals from Nov. 21 to Dec. 1. And by the way, shipping is $4.99 for members and everything carries REI’s ironclad guarantee. On to the deals. The first six in particular are amazing. All Amazon comparison prices are as of 11/19.

We have a winner!

November 19, 2008 · Filed Under Uncategorized · 4 Comments 

A random drawing of entries was done this morning, and we now have a winner of the Navigon 7200T. Robert Griswold is the lucky fellow; he added comment number 83…

“I have been in the market for a GPS for some time and this site looks like a great place to find the best deals, which is good because price is a key determinant for me and I, like most consumers, want the best bang for my buck! That being said, please enter me into the contest for the Navigon 7200T. Also, I have subscribed to your RSS feed for a second entry, but more importantly for great deals on GPS units should I not win!”

Thanks again to Navigon for supplying the 7200T as the prize, and thanks to everyone who entered, subscribed and gave us some link love! Now don’t go away, ’cause we’ve got some great deals coming. And you don’t even have to wait till Black Friday. I expect to have a big surprise for everyone this Friday, so stay tuned.

Garmin Nuvi 850 drops again to $419.99

November 19, 2008 · Filed Under Auto GPS deals, Garmin GPS deals, Unexpired GPS deals · Comment 

Garmin nüvi 850 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator via Amazon.

We posted this when it was listed for $447.95, and now it’s dropped again.  It’s $419.99 right now — the lowest price I’ve seen there. Shipping is $12.95; it’s coming from a third-part vendor.  This is an unadvertised deal, and Amazon’s prices fluctuate dramatically, so there’s no telling how long it will last.

Halloween day only - 40% off InvisibleSHIELD

October 27, 2008 · Filed Under Accessories, Expired GPS deals · Comment 


40% Off all invisibleSHIELDs



DEAL EXPIRED!
My apologies to GPS Tracklog readers for the duplicate posting. I won’t do it to often but some deals are just too good to not get it out to the widest possible audience. As I said there…

I also wanted to throw it out there for those of you not familiar with this great product. And it’s not just for GPS — it’s great for iPhones, iPods or anything with a screen that can be scratched. I just put one on my Garmin Oregon 400t touchscreen GPS and I’m very happy with the results. I’ve seen no noticeable degradation in visibility.

So here’s the deal… Halloween Special. 40% OFF All invisibleSHIELDs
