Amazon deals: Kindle books (Kress, Grant, baking), Johnny Bravo, Taken, The League, Criter

You can get Robert McCammon's Boy's Life for $.99 on your Kindle! Sorry, folks -- the price literally went up between starting this post and finishing it.

Nancy Kress's awesome Beggars in Spain is also $.99!

You can also nab Mira Grant's Feed for the Kindle for $1.99. I was decidedly not blown away by this book, but since I'm clearly in the minority here, you might enjoy checking it out.

And Baking Basics and Beyond: Learn These Simple Techniques and Bake Like a Pro is free today (normally $19.99)

On DVD, season 1 of Johnny Bravo is only $6 (76% off)!

Taken is down to $7.99 (60% off), and The Prestige on Blu-Ray is also $7.99 (50% off, and $1 cheaper than on DVD).

The Blu-ray version of The Raid: Redemption is $17.99 (50% off).

The TV Deal of the Week will nab you either of the first two seasons of The League for 50% off on Blu-Ray or DVD.

The Blu-Ray deal is on the ESPN Films 30 for 30 set, down to $43.99 (56% off).

Oh, and the Gold Box Deal of the Day will nab you the Criterion editions of either The Seven Samurai or The Samurai Trilogy for 50% off.

In video games, the inFAMOUS double pack for PS3 is $29.99 (25% off), and Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City is $24.98 (38% off) for the PS3 and $19.49 (51% off) for the X-box.

In kitchenwares, the Oster 6706 6-Cup Plastic Jar 10-Speed Blender is going for $20.88 (60% off, but really about $15 below the other sales). The Breville RM-JE98XL Certified Remanufactured Juice Fountain Plus 850-Watt Juice Extractor is $99.99 ($75 below other prices).

I've been vaguely wanting to re-read Beggars In Spain for a while, but I don't have a copy anymore. Thanks!

I took advantage of the 2nd and 3rd ones when they popped. The first on Gaunt/McGuire's journal and the 2nd when going over the month's 100 < $4 list. They also had Gaiman's "American Gods" on the cheap and I'm still deciding if I want to replace my paper copy to free up that little bit more shelf space...

No idea why, but the link for that baking book comes up an amazon 404. I even tried going to the book's page on Amazon and then clicking the kindle version and THAT gave a 404.
