If you are looking for a Windows 10 Tablet, that won’t break the bank, Best Buy has the Insignia™ 11.6″ 2 in 1 Windows 10 Tablet with 32GB of memory and a Keyboard docking station for $119.99 (was $199.99).  I almost walked out of the store with this one…but I already have too many gadgets!

I hesitated to post this pick when I first saw the ad on Sunday because I thought, due to the price, the quality would be poor.  Since then, I have been able to read numerous reviews and go to my local Best Buy to see this tablet in action.

First thing to grab my attention was the screen.  It has a very sharp. responsive display, with bezels that were not too wide.

Being a “2 in 1”, this tablet comes with a keyboard docking station, which has two full size USB ports.  When docked, the tablet performs as a netbook.

Again, this is a Windows 10 Tablet, NOT android, and is a great choice if you need Windows OS compatibility.

Although this tablet is not a powerhouse by any stretch, if what you need is windows compatibility, a large easy to read screen, email and internet browsing, and light word processing, this tablet will do the job.

After looking through Best Buy’s weekly ad for September 3-6, a few items stood out as exceptional deals in the area of digital storage.

I’ll break down the savings and cost per gigabyte (GB) on these items.

First, the Western Digital easystore® 8TB External USB 3.0 Hard Drive.  This is a great line of external hard drives; that I have experience with.  I recently bought the little brother (4TB), which is also on sale, and I have it connected to my Xbox One full time.  With a sale price of $169.99, that is 43% off the regular price and approximately $0.02 a gigabyte (GB).

 

Next, the Western Digital easystore® 1TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive.  I own a smaller (500GB) cousin of this drive from Western Digital, and again, this is product hasn’t failed me over the years.  Unlike the 8TB external above, this model is much smaller, portable, and does not rely on an external power source (it gets it’s power via usb).  With a sale price of $49.99, that is 50% off the regular price and approximately $0.05 a gigabyte (GB).

I’ll group these last items together, as they are closely related.  If you are in need of upgrading the memory to your digital camera, cell phone, tablet, etc., these items are a great choice at a really good price.

The SanDisk Ultra PLUS 64GB SDXC and microSDXC UHS-I Memory Cards are on sale for $29.99 ea, which is 66% off the regular price and approximately $0.46 a gigabyte (GB).
