wasn't todays 9.99 daily find a 2.99 daily find in the last couple of days?

I always check the daily find because I've picked up some great ebooks for cheap there. I remember picking up the second book in this series not long ago as a daily find and was excited to see the third one on sale and nabbed that one too. Used a 40% off coupon code at kobo for the first one in the series.

 

Imagine my surprise to see todays daily find the same book at 9.99??? WTH?

 

Did someone at B&N mess up or is this really the daily find today?

I saw that too. I got it yesterday for 1.99 as I had just enough on my gift card to get it and had been waiting to see if it might pop up as a daily find. So I wonder if B & N made a mistake.

That's right, it was 1.99, not 2.99. My mistake. I'm wondering if this is an error as well on B&N's part and if they fix it with a new daily find? This is certainly not priced as a daily find today at 5xs yesterdays price.

Where do you find the Daily Find?  I'm all about Free Fridays and this is a new one to me.

The daily find is here, or can be found on the main Nook Book page by clicking on the "NOOK Books" link at the top left of this page (just below BN.com, second link from the left).  Today it's Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum, for $2.99.

 

Since none of the earlier posters mentioned a title, I don't know if BN hadn't yet set the price on this one, or if the page still showed yesterday's book, but that price had gone back up.  Since this book does not seem to be part of a series, I'm guessing they're referring to a different book, but no idea what.  That information might have been helpful.

I was refering to Inkdeath as it was 1.99 yesterday as the family daily find and today its still listed as the family daily find just back up to full price. Sorry for not mentioning the title.

The daily find always has TWO titles, a regular one and a family one, which is not necessarily only for children. I often pick up the family daily find as it is often means no erotica, violence, etc but many grownups would enjoy too.Often it is the ONLY one of the two titles that I pick up as I don't require violence or sex in my ebooks, but I do love fantasy or science fiction. Not against the other, the story is usually what interests me so if it's there, it's there, if not, that's okay too.

 

To find both Daily Find books, you have to click the NookBooks link above, they are near the bottom of the page.

 

The family title listed earlier this morning was the same title, "Inkdeath" as yesterday, though listed at it's regular price after having been 1.99 yesterday. I see it has been corrected to "Mater the Greater" for 1.99. "Those who save us" was listed correctly this morning as the REGULAR daily find.  Maybe I just got up before the B&N folk did this morning and too early to have been more clear in my original post. :smileyhappy:
