If you do decide on a Fire, I recommend that you go ahead and get one with “special offers,” based on comments like the one I quoted below (although I think that particular comment refers to Kindle e-readers rather than Fire tablets), and the fact that _I think_ if you find out that they bother you, you can always pay later to remove them. > [@Question for people with Kindles with "Special Offers"](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/question-for-people-with-kindles-with-special-offers/818520/7): > > I bought two a few years ago, one for my wife and myself, without the special offers. Mine broke and I just replaced it this week during the Prime Day sale. This time I got it with the special offers and now I am furious (well, peeved) that I spent the extra money on the first two. I was afraid I’d have ads all over it but it really is just a book ad on the lock screen instead of a random stock image. Save your money and put up with the special offers. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/recommend-a-mid-priced-android-tablet/819865)._
