Toshiba Encore Mini December Sales ($79 + Free MicroSD Card)
Even if two of the largest discounted shopping days are behind us, there will still tablet deals to be ahead before the holidays, and coming up tomorrow is a pre-Christmas sale on the Toshiba Encore Mini (WT7).
This 7-inch Windows 8.1 tablet was the first 7-inch consumer tablet to be launched with Windows 8.1 from a reputable tablet brand, and the first dirt cheap Windows 8.1 tablet too. It was launched for $119 in September.
Since then it has been cut to $99, to correspond with the price of it's first rival, the HP Stream 7, which was launched only six weeks ago, also for $99.
