Looking for a tablet, but don’t want to spend Nexus 9, Pixel C, or iPad Pro money? Right now there are some great deals on some older and/or less powerful tablets.
Today’s roundup includes some big discounts on models running Android, iOS, and Windows… and while that Windows tablet isn’t a very good tablet, it does come with a free 1-year license for Office 365. Install Office on your desktop or notebook and never touch the tablet and you’ve still saved $20.

StoryBundle is new to me, thanks! Anyone else here using it? I’m searching for bundle sites now that Humble Bundle went down the toilet.
I really like StoryBundle. Every couple of weeks they issue a new Bundle and give you a week or two to order it. You are informed by email. The Bundles are thematically grouped. Sometimes it’ll be mysteries, or sci fi, or comics, and so forth. There is often a minimum cost, which is very low, but otherwise, you pay what you think it worth. No DRM, and choice of formats for Kindle, B&N, etc. I’ve bought maybe a dozen Bundles now.
Also check out http://www.BookBub.com. I just learned about it. When you sign up for it, you give your email, your retailer and reading genre preferences. The site then sends you emails identifying free or deeply discounted books in your preferences. Yesterday I downloaded 2 free books from Amazon and four from Barnes & Noble.
