Budget Friendly Point and Shoot Camera?

[fronkfam]

I am looking for a budget friendly point and shoot camera. Preferably under $100. Any good suggestions? Or any input on what to stay away from?

TIA!

I don't know what to recommend but deal hacker always has a lot of the best intel on cameras. They tell a little bit about the product but you can ask questions. www.lifehacker.com/dealhacker

I just bought a little Nikon on clearance at Target for around $65. I've been very happy with it....it takes really good pics in low light for a cheap P&S.

It was on clearance in the store but the link above is the same model.

I have this camera too. I purchased at Costco.
OP, I love this camera since when I was looking for one, my one main concern was that it be small enough to fit in my pocket, which it does.
It is slim. I just want my pictures so I can download them and put in a photobook so this works well for me. Honestly, I hardly use it anymore since I use my camera for pictures and, to me, they look just as good.

I do like my camera though if I have to use it.

Thank you for the suggestions! I usually use my phone for pictures, but would like to have a camera on vacation, just in case!

oops, I meant to say I use my phone for pictures and they come out just as good according to me but I do use my camera too.
If you cruise, it's best to have the camera instead of your phone too.
