Fuji Finepix A170 yours for just $79

If you want to get a digital camera for less, say $79 with free shipping, then check out Amazon.com, where Amazon is offering the Fuji Finepix A170 for $79 with free shipping and handling.

This is not a bad price, considering the camera has a three times optical zoom, a 2.7-inch LCD display, a ten megapixel sensor, takes the common AA batteries and the common SD/SDHC memory cards, and even includes a coupon code for 55 free prints from Shutterfly.com.

As usual, we highly recommend using rechargeable AA batteries, not single-use, since they are better for your wallet, and also better for the environment. If you look around your house, you will notice a number of small devices are using AA batteries. Switching to rechargeables may have the hassle of re-charging, but you only pay for them once!

And if you are not draining them quickly, also be sure to consider batteries with low self-discharge rates, like the Sanyo Eneloop.
