Well must be the festive season again as thismorning my Wife and I trundled down to the local HaNorm store in the Mount.
Looking to spend maybe $200-250 on your average digital camera we looked at a cheapie Kodak that was in their cabinet for $140ish wasnt really what we had in mind and pointed out the $248 one in the catalogue. "Sorry mate sold out" was the reply so we asked if could get one by Xmas and they made a couple of calls and no way in hell. So ok bye bye will go else where then hang about they insist and ended up getting the new Kodak easyshare C875 value $399 A battery charger and lithium batteries value $99 and a 512k memory card value $149 all for $399 Awesome deal I think and has made my wifes Xmas so all is good. Moral of the story HAGGLE to your hearts content Merry Christmas to All |

Just make sure you confirm with Kodak what the largest compatible size card for your camera is. Not every device works with some of the bigger cards like the 4GB SD.

They didn't say weither it was SD, XD or mini SD, so it could be more expensive, last time a bought an XD card it cost $90 for a 256mb. |

I rarely shop at Hardly Normal. Odd good price, and then they try to stitch you up. The product is fine, but same as elsewhere, and nearly always a fair whack cheaper elsewhere. |
