I've got one of these, its a good camera for the price.

Things you should know though.... it eats through batteries FAST (especially with the lcd screen on). I'm gonna invest in some of those new Kodak Max Rechargable 1850mah's for this camera. If you take shots when there's little->no power left they'll come out grainy.

Also, there is a significant delay between when you press the button and the actual shot is taken... probably around 2-3 seconds.

Other than that, its a great $200 camera, especially with 2.3MP and 3x optical zoom.

So you already have a coupon code? Please don't post it here but how much $ off $ is it?

If you don't already have a coupon code but want to know which you should use, there is no coupon code requirement for this deal.

Just sign up for eBates.com which is free and legit then login, click Computers & Electronics then click Walmart.com

 

[rugger29]

wow, that really is an amazing deal now. Anyone who wants a great deal on an entry level digital camera should jump on this.

And let me know if you have any questions about the camera. Besides the minor flaws I listed above, it really is a great camera. Has a useful timer too.

 

[Kerouactivist]

I jumped on this one just because of how great of a deal this is, I "ussually" don't buy expensive stuff I don't need.

but, this will make a great birthday present for my father. Without making my recently graduated college butt go broke.

Thanks time4cash
awesome deal.

awesome because their are no rebates to hassle with.......and that bonus pack makes it that much better...

 

[Kerouactivist]

back in stock better hurry

for those of you that have ordered:
has anyone recieved e-mail confirmation of their order yet I haven't

 

[carmann]

Back in stock if someone wants it. Weird thing is it shows the $149 price but when you add it to your cart the price changes to $198.86.

 

[Kerouactivist]

mine rang up for 149.00 hmmmm..... maybe a price mistake. which would explain not recieving confirmation via e-mail

 

[brtspears2]

I see it as 198$....what is wrong?

 

[carmann]

Price now show $198.86. I hope they honor the $149 price for those that ordered the cam.

 

[Kerouactivist]

I see it as 198$....what is wrong?

They must have changed it back to $198 because now when I put it in my cart it is showing up as 198

In my order it still says I bought it for 149 though

 

[CalebTG]

For those of you confused, it was $198 originally, then they lowered it to $149 until it went OOS. Now that they have it back in stock its back up to $198. I ordered when it was $149 and got my confirmation about 10 minutes later.

Now the page just went offline (they seemed to have removed it?).

 

[Flann321]

new link, unfortunately its $198 now

[CalebTG]

Yep, Re-linkified

back up to $198 with no goodies (16mb compact flash, photo paper, case, only 4 batteries).
Got less hot fast.

I am so angry

I'm looking for a digital camera so I thought I'd try this link even though it was supposed to be out of stock.

I thought I was in luck when it didn't say out of stock and I added it to my cart, for $149.xx.

Then, of course I had to see if I could use point sites with it. According to sdrawer.com, Memolink paid 3 pts per $ for Walmart, but Walmart wasn't on the shopping list, so I tried MyPoints.

Meanwhile, Walmart "updated" their website, and made the camera $198.86. That's a $50 price increase!

I called Customer Service, even talked to the poor ladies' supervisor, and they could not give it to me for the price it was when I added it to my shopping cart -- 5 minutes before!

Boooo Hissssss

Walmart is Horrible, and many other things I am not allowed to post online.

I got in when it was $149, got my order confirmation within 10 minutes, and mine shipped out yesterday via ups ground (also notified of that by email).
