GPS Steals and Deals - 3/23

Well, Happy Easter. If the Easter Bunny didn't drop a GPS in your Easter Basket, maybe you'll just need to get one for yourself.

Most Garmins are down a few bucks this week, with the exception of the Nuvi 200 - It's down almost $30 this week.

Best prices might be either at Costco - Nuvi 650 for $299, or the Garmin 660 at Amazon for $338 (See below)

Big News This Week is the Nuvi 200W still under $200
. If you are looking at an entry level Standard Screen unit (i.e. Nuvi 200), without Text to Speech, consider the extra $40 for the Nuvi 200W at $199. Basic Widescreen navigation, 48-state maps, easy to use interface; See the Widescreen difference. More info below.


Standard Screens - 3.5-inch

Widescreen Models

  • Nuvi 200W at Amazon $196 - No Text to Speech, Continental US Maps. (Best Buy featured this for $199 this morning in their Flier) See My Full Review - Nuvi 200W.
  • Nuvi 660 at Amazon $339 Down again this week - Text to Speech, North American Maps, TMC Traffic Capability included. See My Full Review - Nuvi 660
  • TomTom XL S at Amazon $298 - $50 off this week - Text to Speech, North American Maps.
  • Nuvi 650 - $299 at Costco; after $100 coupon. Very good deal on a Text to speech unit in widescreen. Essentially the same as the Nuvi 660 minus the TMC Traffic and Bluetooth Handsfree. Deal good through 3/23. - ENDS TODAY
  • Nuvi 750 - $356 at Amazon - down again this week. New thin design with Text to Speech and Maps of North America. Route Optimization - plug in multiple stops and let the unit optimize the route for fastest planning.

Finally, It's Running Season and for many, it's time to hit the roads. I am starting to watch the prices on the Forerunners.
