There are a few helpful sites around which we thought it might be useful to list here. Please add to the thread if you know of any more!
uk.ereaderiq.com/
A really neat site that lists all free Kindle books and lets you search Amazon for Kindle books; but perhaps its best feature is the Kindle Price Drop tab where you can list books from your Kindle Wishlist together with a target price drop and the site will email you if/when Amazon cut the price by that amount. Very useful given that Kindle book prices can rise and fall dramatically from one day to the next. (NB you have to put in how much you'd like to see the price fall by, not your target price!)

Kindle Accessories Covers, lights, headphones, and almost anything else you might ever want to treat your Kindle to (apart from books!)
www.7dayshop.com/mobiles-tablets-e-readers/
A great site for very inexpensive Kindle covers (I got one from there for well under £5 and it's superb). 7 Day Shop also sells a wide range of photo/PC and other gadget accessories. Very good value, not always the fastest delivery, but very reliable.

Kindle Shortcuts lists a myriad shortcuts for searching, turning features on or off, bookmarking etc, as well as a comprehensive guide to Collections, Archiving and so on. For example, it gives the numerical shortcuts such as Alt Q for number 1, Alt W for 2 etc, through to Alt P for 0, to avoid going via the Sym(bol) key every time. Alt G is a very useful shortcut for "redrawing" the screen to remove any ghosting which some Kindles occasionally suffer from. There is also a link to enable you to download the entire shortcut list as a book to your Kindle so you can refer to it at any time.
A way to shop on Amazon in a price range: Use this link and change the numbers in red to the price you want. This link shows 1 penny to £1.99
