My dad is the world's greatest in finding awesome deals that include buy-one-get-one-free and all sorts of other deals.
I can tell you I get twice as much cool stuff because of it!
I used to think it was funny, because as we opened our gifts, dad would have a running commentary on the special deals he found. Hey, this spindle of CDs were actually free after mail-in rebate!! I think my Christmas present this year is 4GB of RAM for my iMac that was $25 after rebate, with free shipping! No complaints here!!
I think it made Christmas even more fun, and especially fun for him.
He did find refurb iPod shuffles one Christmas, and gave them to my brother and his daughter. They were happy to get them, and did know that they were refurbs.
I've never seen a refurb look anything less than new...so I'd say "go for it!"
