Post by Darkstar »

Anyone buying anything from all the BF deals out there? I dont care to deal with the crowds and some of the maniacs out there, but i noticed that some deals are going online for BF this year. (like the $399 Vostro from Dell)

That Dell deal is very attractive. I received a notice today about it. A co-worker mentioned that Dell wants sales ahead of BF to beat out all of the Acer Wal*Mart and Target BF deals.

For $399, I might get two of them. BEST of all .... You can opt for Windows XP without any additional cost !!!! :P

I want a new camera and have been looking at the Canon XTi for months... I then find out a day late that BestBuy had one in a kit for a killer price two weeks ago in a select location secret friday night sale for three hours.... I missed it and these new secret sales can suck my balls... Haven't seen anything else priced good to buy though either.

I need a new point-and-shoot digital camera since my screen is janky... The 7.1MP Kodak from Best Buy looks pretty good. And they hove some good DVDs for cheap too... But, I'm not sure if I can justify spending any more money this week.

Well, we now have three brown 30Gb Zunes today. :mrgreen:

Just got two from NewEgg and the third one from Dell. I must have ordered the last two from NewEgg since I couldn't get the third one. :shock:

The Dell price was only 0.42 cents cheaper than NewEgg. Dell had it cheaper with shipping and tax while NewEgg had it $4 more with no tax. :rolleyes:

My son mentioned how well this Zune works as a 30Gb jump drive with a slight tweak (hack) to the system than can be reversed if need be.
:P

So, both of my boys and their friend now have Zunes.

Only thing I bought was The Orange Box. Best Buy had it for $25 Friday and Saturday, so I took the ad to my local walmart, saved $25, 60 miles round trip, and the hassle of being treated like cattle at Best Buy.
