(Yesterday's post is chock full of digital camera deals, lots of DVDs (including Cheers, Frasier, Walking Dead, and anime), toys, video games, and more.)
Amazon's got a bunch of video game deals set for the pre-Thanksgiving rush:
The best deal, if you've got the cash and haven't bought the hot new games yet, is the Buy 1, Get 50% off sale that includes a lot of current games, like Skyrim, Arkham City, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Rage, Uncharted 3, Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7, and more.
For Wii and 3DS owners, there's a Buy 1 game, get 40% off Another deal that covers a whopping 228 different titles. This includes just about every major game for the systems.
There's also a Buy 2, Get 1 Free deal on EA Sports games, with the usual suspects -- Madden, FIFA, NHL, Tiger Woods, NCAA Football -- all showing up.
And there's a one-day sale on Sims Downloadables for PC and Mac, with 50-70% off a buch of items.
Other good game deals include the Playstation Move Starter Bundle for $79.99 (20% off), Fallout: New Vegas for $14.99 (25% off), Dead Island for $46.99 (22% off), LA Noire for $25.98 (35% off).
In toys, the Leap Frog Leapster 2 is $35.40 (49% off).
The KidKraft Deluxe Garage Set is $71.99 (45% off).
The LEGO Ramses Pyramid is $12.99 (57% off). I haven't played any of the LEGO board games, but I love the idea of building dice.
The Nintendo Bowser's Castle Mario and Yoshi vs Mecha Bowser Building Set is $64.99 (28% off) and makes me wish I had more space and disposable income.
On the DVD front, T2: Judgment Day is $9.49 (53% off) on Blu-Ray and the Two-Disc Blu-Ray/DVD combo of Thor is $19.99 (56% off).
The first Laurel and Hardy collection (with Jitterbugs, The Big Noise, and Great Guns) is $17.99 (49% off).
Seasons of Glee are on sale for anywhere from 35-50% off.
In MP3 sales, there's a 99-song Thanksgiving album of classical music for $.99 with some nice choices on it (lots of Bach, stuff from Carmen and The Nutcracker, Brandenburg Concertos, etc). At a penny a song, it's not a bad deal. For more recent fare, the MP3 of the Day is U2's Unforgettable Fire for $4.
The Settlers of Catan Novel (I am not making this up) was released today, and is already on sale for $5 (66% off) in paperback, or $2.99 on Kindle. I assume that every third chapter involves a robber.
Finally, in diabetes news, you can get a 36-pack of Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tarts for $5.62 (including free shipping). This is another one of those deals where the Amazon offer is on the side (because they're backordered, I guess).
