Picked this up browsing the GPS aisle. Even though it is a year and half old unit, with the 30 day map guarantee it is still a great deal.

**At the stores that are priced at 43.99 or near there, you can still order units from that store by instructing an associate to order from the warehouse or from bestbuy.com or placing an order at this store's price and picking up from a nearby store that is priced higher (assuming the store has inventory). <----Huge YMMV
*****Stores are beginning to send back old units to the Product Return Center for credit for unsold TomToms. Get them while you can. I will post store numbers (I will no longer list store locations nor pricing for that store) that still have inventory.

I only found it through the outlet for 129. When I tried selecting any local stores for pick-up they all came back as unavailable. I guess they don't have any at the local depot.

This will not be available online, only Brick and Mortar and outlet items are refurb only.

Yours wasn't a refurb?
This is brand new in box, though box is worn from being tossed around for a year.

tomtom sucks! especially the worst windshield sucker in the world, it always falls down and broke the USB power cord of my go720. The battery cannot last 30 minutes.
I stopped by the Rockville, MD BestBuy after work this evening. They had three of these GPS's in stock, but the price was around $95. Several stores in the Washington area had these in stock, but only the Hunt Valley, MD store (north of Baltimore) had the $44 price. The system showed three in stock at that store.
I hope this helps someone.

I have a 720 also. However my windshield sucker holds really tight on the window. What you need to do is just put a little water ( say 2 or 3 drops) in the center of the suction cup, and quickly press it onto the window.(Try not to let the water reach the edge of the suction cup). Let it dry for maybe 10 minutes, you are good to go.
I have been generally happy with my 720 (I got from the BB price mistake fiasco a while back), ok oem mount, but really love the $15 aftermarket mount (ARKON TTGO115 tomtom) I got through Amazon. Nice company too which instantly replaced a chipped piece for free.
OMG, I just bought 3 at BB near by my house in South Fort Worth. The guy tried checking the price everywhere but he couldn't ring up the price, so I guess he went talked to his boss or something and came back telling me it's $43.99, so I grap 3 units. I think they still got 2 or 3 left. It's brand new!!!
$249 at 3 stores near me with plenty of them in stock.
Definitely YMMV.

All out at the Fairfield Oh BB. I picked one up last night at 8:30 and there was 1 left. Went back today at noon and it was gone. They did have tom tom GPS Sleeves for $5, originally $20
None left in Trumbull, CT with sheepish look from salesperson, likely having grabbed last few earlier in the day. Oh well. Thanks for the heads up OP.

Got mine for $79.99 which is still a heck of deal. So far I love the unit I think the window mount is excellent some people may not know how to operate the screw down suction cup.
Thanks for the great find!!!

Inventory is wrong or not updated. Went to Laredo North this afternoon and none was in stock.

I purchased two units at the Oceanside, CA store yesterday, Tuesday 8/24. I believe there are none left there. This was a great deal for those of us who were able to find them. Thanks to OP.
I got one for $97 in Louisville. Not sure if I will keep it though. There were a couple in the Cinci area according to the inventory list and they were going for $66 ish.
kspdeals said: I think Best buy has now revied the price to $129.99
First off you are looking at the best buy online refurb offered by the outlet. This is ONLY at the Brick and Mortar store, yes the physical location. Locations listed are the ones that are heavily discounted clearance, not all locations are listed.
cheeto said: if u oder online for full price with pick up will the price adjust when u get to the store?
I think it should work since it is ship to store rather to your house however, when you are picking from the locations that are OOS at $43.99 make sure you are getting the store price not the web price.
rootbear said: kkmekadba said: Thanks. I got 740 for 80.00.
How did you do that? The 740 is the current model, right?
Pricing for some store's Go 740 are listed. The Go 740 is approximately 1 year old model. The Go 750 should have taken over 740's product line at Best Buy but I guess BB is not planning on carrying it anymore.
