Dads & Grads Sale: Up to 60% OFF GPS Units at Amazon

Posted on June 1, 2012 | Leave a comment
Bookmark and Share

Looking for the perfect Father’s Day or Graduation Gift?  For a limited time, pop over to this link to save up to 60% on Amazon’s GPS special sale. There are lots of great choices, but from our experience, we recommend you look for a GPS unit that includes lifetime map and traffic updates.  It generally doesn’t cost a lot more to add this feature (i.e. add $10 to the base cost for this model).  With all the construction changes happening around DFW, it is worth it to pay a little extra to stay up-to-date. 

Here is a sample of some of the great GPS deals we found that also include FREE Shipping (be sure to select Amazon as the merchant to get free shipping):

 

FREE Shipping Tip:  If you need your GPS unit faster than what the standard free shipping provides, you might want to consider a FREE 1-month trial of Amazon Prime which will get you FREE 2-day shipping on almost anything with no minimum order. There are other nifty benefits like unlimited instant streaming of thousands of movies and TV shows with Prime instant videos and FREE check-out of Kindle Books. Find out more here.
