Check your local Wal-Marts. This is a great deal.
All the best.
That is a great deal…equal to the 4GB price in many locations. I would like to go from a 2 to 4GB Clip this year, but if the deals like this are out there, who knows?
I got one after reading this thread. Awesome bargain.
Saturday, Feb 14th. walmart web site shows they have only 1 and 2 gb clips. Either they sold it out, or stores still have them. great deal though.
I’m going today to pick up a couple. Good price, wish me luck 
I’d love to pick one up, but my tax $$ hasn’t come yet:cry:
Thanks for the tip! Local store had a full hook of black players in old packaging tagged at $49. Cost me $42 and change after using a $10 promo gift card I got at work a year ago.
I’m glad to hear that you guys are snatching these up. Enjoy those Clips!
All the best.

Bought one of these this mornng. Seemed like a really great deal. It’s my very first MP3 player and I haven’t a clue where to start. The connecton seems to be really different from all the other players. I would like a docking station/charger/speaker and a case or cover. Can someone tell me where to find compatible accessories?
Thanks Guys
Congrats on your first MP3 player! The connection is a standard mini-B USB. There a variety of wall and car chargers for this type of connection. Type in “Sansa Clip” on eBay and/or Amazon.com, and you’ll find several pages of good accessories, including chargers and silicone cases. I use a black silicone case and a small screen protector for my 4GB Clip.
Hope that helps.
Thanks! I found the cases in a variety of colors on eBay…exactly what I was looking for!!!
Very, very helpful! I have a Motorola Razr phone and the charger says "5.0 V and 550mA ". The connection also looks like a match. Anyone know if this will work? Don’t want to fry my new toy!
Thanks for all the great ideas! Keep 'em coming!

What you have should do fine. I also have a small mobile/cell phone charger and they work great. :) 5 VDC is the correct voltage and 550mA should be more than enough current for the small clip to charge it.
Is this one of those US only deals?
I sure hope not.
It probably is. Are their wal-marts over seas?
I just hope there’s still some there when my tax $$ comes in… I want a 4GB model, but if the 8GB is till the same price I would be all over it.

There’s tons of walmarts in canada. This is really pissing me off though because I’ve wanted to get the clip for so long but they’re rediculously priced. $59.99 for the 2 gb and $89.99 for the 4 gb at futureshop. The walmarts I’ve been to didn’t have any clips at all ffs.

Indeed there are. I haven’t been outside the US myself in a long time (the last time was when I was in South Korea in the early 90’s), but I remember an episode of “The Amazing Race” several years ago in which one team was amazed to see a “Wal-Mart Supercenter” in some South American country.
Ive only been to Canada, Great Brittan, and Germany. Canada was the only one for more than a week, and In the year I lived in Toronto I never shopped for anything (Did that when I came home) so I never really looked. Wal-mart only made it to my suburb in ohio, 3 years ago.

After seeing this deal here I pulled the trigger on one this morning. The Walmart that I visited didn’t have them marked down so I asked the clerk to do a price scan. The price went from $69.00 down to $49.00. Thanks for the heads up on this great deal. Now what do I do with two Clips?
