NOTE: Target ads are store specific, so I didn't link the actual ad. The ad scan linked above is from a Black Friday website I'm using throughout the holiday season. You can find the actual ad (with links to sale items) under Deals at the top of the home page.

Amazon is running a similar sale if you prefer to shop there. I haven't checked other stores to see if they're doing likewise.

Price Adjustments & Returns

Usually during the holiday season, many stores will offer a refund of the price difference if you buy early and they lower the price later on. This allows you to get the deal now instead of waiting for a better deal later where you might miss out because of limited quantities.

Additionally, most stores will extend their return period into Jan 2024, giving you the chance to buy gifts early and return them after Christmas if need be.

So far, I haven't seen which stores will be doing the price adjustments and what their dates are for returns. As I get this information, I'll post it on each store's page.

If I understand right. If you do not activate the kids part you can use it as a regular kindle.

That's correct.

I have an Echo Show 5 Kids Edition and skipped setting it up for kids. It functions exactly the same way as a standard Echo. I got it because it was on sale and cheaper than the standard one, plus it has a two-year warranty.

Kicking off Christmas sales before October's even halfway over is getting rather ridiculous.
