You’ve been meaning to pick up a camcorder when the price was “right,” but money is tight and the time just hasn’t presented itself. Until now—today you can snag the 30 minute Flip Ultra Series Camcorder from Amazon for $49.99 shipped, which is the lowest I’ve ever seen it.

The Flip Ultra delivers crisp video in a tiny, easy-to-use device. I keep mine in my purse (for camcorder emergencies!) and “Oh, I wish I’d been able to tape that!” is now a lament of the past.

Hey, why not kill two birds with one stone? Father’s Day is coming up. Just sayin’.
