Did anyone else notice the full Walmart ad that was sent in the Sunday paper?? Loving that! I really hope they decide to do that on a regular basis. How great would it be if all of us had the same advertised prices??
One of the items that was listed in the ad was the Kindle for $79. But, if you purchase it at Walmart, they will give you a $30 Walmart Gift Card at checkout. Total cost?? Only $49 for the Kindle!! WOO-HOO!!
This deal is valid through May 5th. But the number of Kindles available in-store might be limited. So I would go as early in the week as possible, if you want one!
Additional Info: I might not have been clear enough for those of you who have never done a Gift Card deal before. The free gift card cannot be used on the actual purchase of the Kindle. But, it can be used on a separate transaction of anything else you are purchasing at Walmart. So, you will pay $79, but you will get $30 for FREE to spend on anything else you would like.

May 5 not April.

Yes! Thanks for catching that. 🙂

We didn’t get the advertisement here. Does that mean it’s not available in our area?
Melea Johnson
Check the ad online and enter in your zipcode. See if it shows your area with the ad. 🙂
Angie
Thanks so much i just got one today!

This is great! Thanks for sharing!

FOr those of you that use these, how do they compare to physical books. I love to read but wonder how i’d do since I hate reading from computer screens.

I was reluctant to switch to an e-reader, but my husband suprised me with one and I love it. I love how easy it is to slip in my diaper bag or purse. It’s great for reading when I’m out in the sun with the kids. I also love the weight. I recently read the game of thrones series and it was so nice to just have the weight of the kindle and not a huge heavy book. I have also read a lot of books that I would never have bought or looked at otherwise, but they were free or super cheap when I needed a new read. I have a case with a light that allows me to read in the car or in bed and not bug hubby with a bigger light.

After about 5 minutes reading on the kindle, I forget that it’s not a book. I really enjoy mine. Also if you are an Amazon prime member, you can borrow one book a month for free and they include new releases also.
Kristin
Heather, these Kindles have a screen that is dark unlike the bright computer screen. It shouldn’t hurt your eyes. I am attached to physical books, I like to keep them after I’ve read them and just have them sitting there on the shelf… but you just can’t beat how lightweight this is and how easy it is to travel with tons of books without taking up the space. You don’t have to worry about your bookmark falling out either! 🙂

I got mine this morning in Springville, UT! Yahoo – Thanks!
Al
This is great, have my son’s B-day coming up!
Kristina
Awesome Deal! I checked our ads here where we live, and they don’t have that on SALE! I was sad!!! So make sure you check your zipcode online!
Leigh H
This would make a great Mother’s Day or Father’s Day gift!
Sara M
WOW! Thanks for finding this great deal. I love checking your site through the day to see what fun things you post about. Thanks for all your hard work!
Bradie
Great deal! My mother in law really likes hers because she says it is easier on her eyes. I really wish that they had a deal on the Kindle Fire……
Angie C
Hubs trying to get this on lunch break today- to save for 11 y/o’s BIRTHDAY PRESENT in August! Thanks so much!
Alissa Buffaloe
The kindle is great and what a great price. Amazon pretty often puts decent books for free! I have gotten numerous cookbooks from Amazon and paid nothing!
Catrina
That ad is good in the Seattle Wa area
Shae
do you know–for kids books that have pictures in color—will they show up in color on this particular Kindle…or just the Kindle Fire? I’ve got the Kindle App on my Android Phone, and I love that I can download some children’s books for free (and they are in color), but they are just too small to read on my phone. I would love to get one for my kids! (and me!)

Shae, we have this Kindle, and it’s only black and white. Not the greatest for picture books, but you still CAN do picture books. And did you know that besides all the free books you can download, you can also check out digital library books for the kindle.
Claudia
Thanks! That is an awesome price.
paige
Thank you! I went and picked up one for my mother for mother’s day, and for my father-in-law for father’s day. I’m thinking about one for my son for High school graduation.
Camille
Thanks! I love the great idea for Mother’s Day gifts.
Michelle Kerem
What a stunning deal.
Will make a brilliant GRADUATION GIFT.
Thank you for bringing to our attention.
Sarah
I would love one of these!! An Awesome price, and I love to read.
Nicole
Best Buy is advertising that model at $40 this week!
Nicole
Sorry, just saw the fine print… with the purchase of a Kindle Fire
Danielle
I’m going to buy one
Ariane Mardis
I am waiting for the announcement of the next kindle e reader… but did consider this one… after seeing the ad… I have been saving up all my swagbucks and all my survey money for a kindle.. I have about 185 so far and am close to getting a kindle but at the moment I want the kindle fire but am waiting for the possible rumored Kindle ice that they might announce in may.
Ellis
Awesome deal thank you. Mother’s day present is what I am thinking.
Chris
All sold out in the Eugene / Springfield, OR area 🙠No rainchecks, no more expected in time for the promotion… Anyone know who might “price-match” this promo?
Lisa
We live in Hillsboro, OR and our store is sold out as well–however, if you happen to be coming up I-5, we just called the Woodburn Walmart store and they have about 10 left.
Chris
Thanks Lisa. I am not headed that way anytime soon. This looks like a bait & switch by Wal-Mart. No mention of while supplies last in the ad, but no rainchecks or alternate offer either. Pretty upsetting actually.
Leslie
I put in our zip code and all it was showing was a fishing ad. 12 pages of walmart fishing stuff!?! Then we saw that there was another ad you could look at. We clicked on the other ad option in the bottom left corner and there was the kindle ad! Hope that helps someone else out there. 🙂
Melissa
The Orem, Ut. store is sold out but the Springville, Ut. Walmart has quite a few.
