While a new Kindle alone is already a highly thoughtful and appreciated gift for any voracious reader, there’s no better time than right now to curate Black Friday offers to build the perfect bundle for the reader in your life (even if that’s you … you deserve nice things, too)!

Right now, several Kindle models (including the brand new Paperwhite and base model Kindle) are on sale during Amazon’s Black Friday sale, including various preconfigured bundles, like the Kindle Essentials bundle. But these bundles aren’t the only way to snag seasonal savings. Here are a few different ways I’d bundle my favorite Kindle accessory (which is on sale) with Amazon’s current offers to make getting (or gifting) a Kindle that much better.
The best bundle deal to snag right now is the new Kindle base model essentials kit<!–> for $117 (save $45) + a set of Strapsicle silicone Kindle grips–> for $16 (save $5). Together, you’ll pay $134 and save a total of $50 — an insane value. You’ll walk away with a new Kindle, a matching fabric cover, a 9W power adapter, and my favorite ingenious Kindle grip, which allows you to read comfortably in any position

If you’re eyeing the Kindle Paperwhite, there’s a similar Signature Essentials bundle<!–> available for $201 (save $83) + a Strapsicles set–> for $16. That’s $217 for both products and a total savings of $88. The Paperwhite Signature Essentials bundle includes the new Paperwhite Signature Edition (32GB), a matching fabric cover, and a wireless charging dock.
Strapsicles are silicone straps that pop over the corners of Kindles to provide a secure spot for your hand to read from nearly any angle without worry of drops. I recently bought my first set after dropping my Kindle Paperwhite on my face one too many times, and I haven’t stopped recommending them since. They’re the perfect addition to these discounted Kindles and give you everything you’d need for an upgraded reading setup for yourself or a loved one this holiday season.

And if you don’t need or want all the accessories offered in Amazon’s bundles, you can still consider adding a set of Strapsicles<!–> to your cart before checking out with just your new Kindle device. The $16 you’ll spend will be well worth it, and they’re a great addition to these e-reader devices if you gift them this season.
