BestBuy just dropped their price on the TomTom ONE LE, which is apparently a special edition of the TomTom ONE that is specific to BestBuy stores.

Available on their website for $139.99 ($10 lower than it was yesterday, 12/8/07):

Take another 12% off with in-store pick-up if you are a RewardZone member (it's free, no reason NOT to join) -- you should have received three coupons (one of which is 12% off GPS hardware) in the past few days, or just use the 12% Birthday coupon at:

BE SURE TO REPLACE THE WORDS "HERE" (three occurances!) IN THE URL WITH YOUR FIRST, LAST NAME, AND YOUR REWARD ZONE NUMBER (or random information). I've used this coupon multiple times recently (each time with bogus name and number) without any trouble, all on my same RZ account. props to MNFRUGALSHOPPER on fw for this coupon

$139.99 minus the 12% coupon should bring the pre-tax price to ~$123.20. I would recommend ordering online for in-store pick up, as BestBuy is well known for having different prices in store. Once you get to the store, they can apply your coupon at the time of pick-up.

This price is only $4 higher than the black friday price, so it's definitely hot IMHO. There are many threads discussing the difference between the TomTom ONE LE that BestBuy (and only BestBuy) sells, and the regular TomTom ONE 3rd Edition -- the general census is that the TomTom ONE LE is the better one to have.

Here is a PDF of the RewardZone Coupon in the event that they pull it (I used fake info, too)
Here is a print-out of the BestBuy site showing the new price for taking to the store

i spent all of friday (seriously, ~5 hours wasted) driving all around Columbus, Ohio area and ended up trying ~14 different stores to get them to price match the $50 price mistake at toysrus for the TomTom One Third Ed. Three BestBuy stores, in my area as of Friday 12/7/07, had 5' tall neon green cardboard display units packed full of tomtom one LE's so they should have plenty in stock (especially if you wake up early)

NOw the question i'm DYing to know, did u get any of them to PM to that price?

Thanks OP. I picked up the Navigon 2100 @ Staples using a $30 off to make it $120 OTD. Reading the reviews about its sluggish performance, I may take up the TomTom as a better alternative.

get a 2gb SD card too to load new maps, and TTS modules too. they are like $10-13 at microcenter.

What TTS modules? Where are those available? I've been reading a bunch of the GPS forums and haven't seen anyone succeed with getting a TTO LE to do TTS...

Make sure the box has a white dot next to the barcode when you buy it. The ones that have the dot apparently house firmware version 7.13 while the ones that don't, 7.11. Version 7.11 has known issues. More information can be found here.

how is $124 $39 more than $119?


alert mods    

Sweet, thanks OP. Bought this for $150 at BB, will do return/rebuy.

PS, love the GPS so far. PM me if you need a link to the TTS modules and information on how to use them. I haven't tried yet but am getting my 2GB SD card this week and will try it then. I can't confirm it to be working on the LE but I thought it was.

TomTom LE 7.11 Issues

Not an issue for me, I got the unit with 7.11, upgraded the version from tomtom home(Software installs once connected to computer), Now I do have everything latest

Regarding the 7.11 software, yes - it's true. It has issues.

Upgrading your unit to 7.161 and including the QuickGPSfix resolves these issues though. Don't be worried about the white dot.

The upgrade is simple. Goto tomtom.com and download the latest "HOME" program. Use HOME to upgrade your unit. It's very straight forward.

BTW - The HOME software also let's you backup your unit, upgrade maps, add POI's, plan routes, etc... all using your PC.

About the following statement, how to make the remove "HERE" and put your member number? Thanks.
If I bring the coupon with "HERE", will it work?

The Kev Master gave the OP green for having one of the widest posts ever.

Have successfully implemented TTS in my LE. Also no problems with 7.11 out of the box. Tomtom home upgraded it and I'm now running 7.162. If you want TTS be sure to get a 2GB SD card. The internal 1GB memory will be hidden however and so far I haven't found a way to access it with the SD card present.


alert mods    

Will it work? Markdowns taken from regular prices. T_T

I know it has worked with the movers coupon for some people, but it seems YMMV as my BBY is very strict. But I may give it a shot.

I tried buying one at $149.99 on Friday, the first day you could use the current 12% reward zone coupon, and I was denied. I tried going to two different cashiers and finally asked for a manager override, but none of them would apply the coupon to the item, since the the item is already discounted from the regular price of $249.99. I ended up buying it anyway, since I found the last one with a white dot. I might go to a different Best Buy and try again today.

How did you enable TTS on the LE? Thanks
