[Dprglist] Black Friday/ Cyber Monday sales

[Chris N]

Yeah the “three wishes” at Pololu is the way to go I think.  Used it last year to get the Romi kit at a steep discount.  I think 40-45% discount is easily possible on stuff they make.   I’m surprised you got 50% off on the motors.  I hope they are not loosing money on this deal…..  We wouldn’t want them to go out of business…..

This year I’m having a hard time finding things I need or really want.    Maybe that 3DOF arm w/ gripper for the Romi….  

The new 3pi+ seems neat, but I have barely used the original 3pi, so I really shouldn’t……

Chris.

Hi Doug and Christian,

I got some motors from Pololu at about 50% discount with the "three wishes form", I just don't know what else is good to get from that website, your recommendations are highly appreciated!
BTW, I am interested in building a robot with vision. I think I need some wheels to go with these motors.

This is my order and the discount, I filled the form at 9AM today, got response at 4:30PM.
30:1 Metal Gearmotor 37Dx68L mm 12V with 64 CPR Encoder (Helical Pinion) (discounted $79.80 with coupon BF20TW1J288003JS4752)
47:1 Metal Gearmotor 25Dx67L mm HP 12V with 48 CPR Encoder (discounted $56.85 with coupon BF20TW1J288003JS4845)

Chris,
    DFRobot (former DPRG sponsor) also has some good sales. The problem with DFRobot is the shipping cost, but if you are making a good size order, you should consider them.
BLACK FRIDAY - DFRobot

All -  is anybody aware of deals that are too good to pass up?

FYI I reached out to Pololu and they told me their deals will go live early this week.
