TomTom XL 340S

Perhaps a $40 savings will change the way you look at the TomTom XL 340S.

Editor's note: You snooze, you lose. Woot.com is no longer offering the TomTom XL 340S deal.

Remember the TomTom XL 340S? Neither do I, but none too long ago we took a look at this neat little portable navigation device and found it to be pretty good--3.5 stars good, in fact. And while its $149.99 price tag isn't too tough on the ol' pockets, who wouldn't like to save a few bucks?

Well, if you pop over to deal-a-day site Woot.com, then you can order a TomTom XL 340S for $109.99 (plus $5 shipping). That's a savings of $40.

Is there a the catch? Well, there are two. Firstly, due to the nature of Woot.com's selling method, this price is only good for today (Oct. 07). Secondly, and probably most importantly, the units are all refurbished. Depending on how you feel about refurb electronics, this may or may not be a deal breaker.

But at almost a third off of the price, it's worth a look, at least.

Not bad, but came across a better deal over the weekend. Right now, Amazon has the Tomtom Go 720 refurbished for $119.98, 5 dollars more and not a one day deal.
