Great Deals: Own a Kindle Fire For As Low As $74

Unknown October 10, 2013 0 Comments

Are you one of those book lovers who cannot afford a Kindle Fire? Or do you want to give your kids a Kindle Fire but thinks that the price is a bit too much for a kid? I might have a really good deal for you

I found this one in Amazon. They're selling a Certified Refurbished Kindle Fire (First Generation) for $89. It's a pretty good deal if you want to own a Kindle Fire for an affordable price.

Features:

Includes a full one-year limited warranty, just like a brand-new Kindle Fire
Access to tens of millions of movies, TV shows, songs, magazines, and books
Thousands of popular apps and games, including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Pandora, and more
Amazon Silk - fast web browsing over built-in Wi-Fi
Free cloud storage for all your Amazon content
Vibrant color touchscreen with extra-wide viewing angle
Fast, powerful dual-core processor
Favorite children's books, graphic novels, and magazines in rich color
Amazon Prime Members enjoy unlimited, instant streaming on thousands of popular movies and TV shows.
With Prime, Kindle owners choose from hundreds of thousands of books to read for free, including over 100 current and former New York Times Best Sellers.

You have nothing to be worried about a Certified Refurbished Kindle because even if it was pre-owned, it had been refurbished and tested to look and work just like a brand new Kindle.

It also comes with a full one-year warranty just like what they offer for real brand new Kindles. It also comes with the same Return Policy as the brand new Kindles. So, if there are any defects you can return it for a new Certified Refurbished Kindle.

Want a much more cheaper Kindle Fire?

This is the list of Used Kindle Fire that I found. This is much cheaper than the certified refurbished. You can get a Kindle Fire for as low as $74

Author Interview: Sheryl Steines (The Day of First Sun) and $450 Amazon GC, Kindle Fire and 5 Autographed Copies of The Day of First Sun

Please enjoy this interview with Sheryl Steines, author of the urban fantasy novel, The Day of First Sun. Then read on to learn how you can win huge prizes as part of this blog tour, including $450 in Amazon gift cards, a Kindle Fire, and 5 autographed copies of the book.

If you could travel in a time machine, would you go back to the past or into the future?
I would go to the past, meet famous people, see history as it happened. I’d be afraid to go to the future. I’m not sure I really want to know when I die.

If you could jump into a book, and live in that world, which would it be?
This might be to expected, but I would love to live at Hogwarts, stroll through Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, play with all the magical stuff, and visit the Weasleys at their house. I saw the Harry Potter exhibit at the museum a few years ago, and it just seemed so fun.

If a movie was made about your life, who would you want to play the lead role and why?
Sandra Bullock. Since she became a movie star, people all over the place tell me I look like her. She’s also funny. I can only imagine how much more interesting and funny my life would be if she were the lead.

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I always knew I wanted to be a writer. There were times that I thought I wanted to be an interior decorator, but in the end, I was always much happier writing and creating.

Who are your favorite authors of all time?
I have two. The first would be Stephen King. I was always amazed by the detail and imagination he used in his books, especially the earliest books. I watched him on an interview many years ago and he was talking about the things he was afraid of, one of which was sleeping with his feet outside the covers at night. He would always cover his feet so that the monsters under the bed wouldn’t get him. I laughed so hard because I do the same thing. J.K. Rowling is also a favorite. Her life story and Harry Potter reminded me that I wanted to be a writer when I was seven. She reminded me of the genre that I loved. It got me thinking about what stories intrigued me. I watched her interview on Oprah and cried through the entire thing. It got me thinking of ways to take my personal experiences and hide them in the fantasy world.

What do you do in your free time?
I read, a lot. In the winter, I spend time at museums and go shopping. In the summer, I love to go to flea markets. You could never have too many fleas. I love to travel. I spend most of the summer driving my 1966 Mustang convertible.

What is your guilty pleasure?
I’m a huge fan of Ninja Warrior. Yeah, the Japanese obstacle course. On one side, it’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen. On the other side of it, the obstacles are so challenging, and the participants are so revered for making it through each stage that it is a huge honor to win.

Favorite places to travel?
I love Europe, London being my favorite city. I’ve been to Scotland, France, Italy, Germany and Austria. The Austrian/German Alps are some of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen.

Favorite way to spend a rainy day?
In front of the television watching my favorite movies. Who doesn’t love Ferris Buehler’s Day Off and Sixteen Candles.

If you could have a superpower, what would you choose? Telekinesis! Then I could clean my house without actually having to do anything.
