Best Black Friday 2017 Drone Deals


Black Friday, the holy shrine of all consumerism, is fast approaching. If you wish to actually get a good deal on something you want rather than crazily fighting for waffle irons in a Walmart at 5am, it's best to go in with a game plan. While TVs and video game consoles are often the most heavily discounted items, drones have begun to see more sales in recent years as they become more mainstream. So, to make your job easier, we have rounded up the best deals on each of the most popular drones below:


DJI Spark 



Percentage wise, the Spark is seeing the biggest discount for Black Friday of any of the DJI drones. Target, Best Buy, and several other major retailers will offering the controller-less Spark for $399, $100 off it's usual $499 price tag. DJI will also be offering the standard Spark for $399, but sweetens the deal by including a free landing pad, set of propeller holders, and hand guard — a total value of $36 purchased separately.
However, the best deal on the standard Spark is surprisingly from Kohl's. Though they can't offer it for any less than the $399 price, you'll get $120 in Kohl's cash with your purchase, which can go a long ways toward anything else on your holiday shopping list.
As for the Spark ultimate combo, you'll find it for $599 pretty much everywhere, though once again DJI is sweetening their deal by including the same three accessories.


DJI Mavic Pro


The DJI Mavic Pro is one of the most popular drones on the market today, and with good reason. It's extremely portable like the Spark, but also offers 4k, a 3-axis gimbal, and 28 minute flight times for less than the Phantom 4 series. Most retailers will be offering the

Amazon Green Monday 2015 'Mystery Digital Camera' Deal: Canon EOS Rebel SL1?

   Today for Green Monday, Amazon has a bunch of deals on cameras, but none is more enticing than the 'Mystery Digital Camera' Deal. This deal saves you $101 on a $500 digital camera (20%), however, the catch is that Amazon doesn't actually reveal what camera it is, instead just showing a picture of a box.


Why I think it's the Canon SL1?

   The first reason that leads me to believe that the mystery camera is the Canon SL1 is the cryptic message Amazon wrote in the description:
We've got a secret deal today...can't say much now....will provide more hints later...however, customers loved when we ran a similar deal on this product earlier this year.
   Now they did something like this during the underwhelming event which was PrimeDay back in July, offering what turned out to be the Canon EOS Rebel SL1 for $413 (marked down from its MSRP of $500). 




   Besides that, a couple of key specs on the page seem to point conclusively to the Canon SL1. Amazon includes a review from DP Review which states (among other things) that the camera has an

Amazon's "Prime Day" to Offer More Deals Than Black Friday?


To celebrate its 20th birthday, Amazon is introducing Prime Day, a "global shopping event" that the retail giant says will offer more deals than Black Friday. The deals will become available at midnight ET on July 15th, but will only be available to Amazon Prime customers in the US, the UK, Spain, Japan, Italy, Germany, France, Canada, and Austria. Amazon says new deals will be introduced as fast as every 10 minutes, and will come from every product category, from clothing to electronics.

The new promotion appears to be part of Amazon's ongoing attempt to drive regular shoppers toward Prime membership, having last month expanded its same-day rapid-delivery service Prime Now outside the US. According to Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, Prime customers spend more than double the average amount than standard Amazon customers in a year — $1,500, compared to non-members' $625. But to get access to Prime Day, you won't necessarily have to pay up for a Prime subscription — you can sign up for a free 30-day Prime membership prior to July 15th and still get access to the offers.
