Daily deal – Sandisk Sansa 1GB MP3 player for $6.99

by Scott Carmichael on

My daily deal for today is for the Sandisk Sansa 1GB MP3 player. This little player runs off a single AAA battery for up to 19 hours. The device supports your own MP3 files, or subscription based music with the Microsoft “Playsforsure” system. 1GB should be sufficient for about 240 tracks.

At just $6.99 (with $5 for shipping) it is a real bargain, but I do need to point out that it is refurbished, so it will most likely not come in a regular retail box, which makes it slightly less suitable for giving as a gift. The price is right if you just need a cheap player to keep the kids quiet during an upcoming car or plane trip.

The Sandisk Sansa features a built in FM radio, voice recording and a 5 band equilizer.

The player is on sale through “Woot Sellout”, which is the Woot.com storefront at shopping.yahoo.com. Simply click that link, and in the middle of the page you’ll find the deal. The $5 shipping charge is valid for up to 3 units, so take maximum advantage of the price by ordering multiple players! As always with Woot deals, when they are sold out, they are gone, so don’t delay!

Daily deal – Sansa Clip 2GB MP3 player with FM radio for $19.99

by Scott Carmichael on

My daily deal for today is perfect for anyone looking for a cheap and stylish MP3 player who would rather stay away from the iPod. The Sandisk Sansa Clip has 2GB of storage, which should be enough for around 500 songs.

The player has (as the name implies), a clip on the back, which makes it easy to carry around, even if you don’t have any pockets. In addition to being a regular MP3 player, the Sansa Clip also features an FM radio with 40 presets, a voice memo recorder and a 5 band equalizer.

Getting your tunes on the player is as simple as “drag and drop”. Included in the package is the Sansa player, a USB cable and a pair of headphones.The player has an internal rechargeable battery and carries enough power for up to 15 hours of music playback.

The Sansa Clip is on sale through Woot.com, which means it is yet another “deal a day” offering; these sites offer one product a day, and often run out of stock halfway through the afternoon. As with all Woot! deals, shipping is a flat $5 and they only charge tax in their home state of Texas.
