Anyways I got an 30GB zune from Toys'r'us for $80 didn't even have to wait in line in the morning, strolled in at about 5 in the afternoon and picked it up from the managers office.

Edit: Sorry I ment free as in Forza 2 and UA come free with the system, package by microsoft.

Nah I didn't get the pro model, I would have liked the pro but i'll just have to get the hard drive another time and I didn't really want that spiderman game (or whatever it was)

Not bad for not going out at all today.

^^ yay! Glad they're replaced. :P

As for Black Friday, I got sweatpants (I needed them for this winter) and some underwear. I bought the kids some stuff but we didn't do too much shopping... I wanted to avoid it, but meh.

Not my color of choice, neon green, and don't quite get loud enough to drown everything out at the gym but beggars can't be choosers.

I can't thank you enough for the ipod, though. I use it every day.

[Black Widow g2]

That's all I wanted. To give it a place where it would get used. I didn't really use it enough... and my sidekick duos as a music player so I had no need for it.

I spent most of the day taking apart the engine on my Prelude since it decided to blow a head gasket a couple weeks ago

No rebates for me...

Panasonic miniDV camcorder $150

I wish we had Frys... I would have been all over those 300gb drives...

For Christmas I'm building a new computer. I need ideas on video cards...

[Bob Vila]

I didn't get anything

Looking to pick up a 32" sammy for the bedroom though. Maybe moving my 56" Sammy DLP to the gameroom (unless someone wants to buy it!) and getting a 46" or 50" Aquos LCD for over the fireplace

I picked up this toy on my drive back from TN in GA from a little shop in the middle of nowhere at 9pm that I saw open after dinner. Got a nice Rok Sak bag with it and the guy gave me a couple straps, a tuner, and a few cables after I sat and jammed with him a bit. I didn't need any of it, but he insisted and just put it in the bag. It's just so comfortable and sounds very rich. Nothing special, but I needed an acoustic/electric to plug into my equipment. Time to hit up some coffee shops .

That makes 4 acoustics and no electrics lol.

Sweet I like the finish on it.. I have a semi hollow electric that has the same type of suburst finish on it just a little lighter. I love the smaller shops like that one people are usually so nice

i stood in line for about 4 hours in 26 degree weather and snow for a coach purse for the ol' lady

Thanks. Even though I prefer seeing the grain of the wood, the finish caught my eye as well. And yeah, small shops with cool owners rock

Not a darn thing this year.

Last year I waited in 14 degree weather all night from 10:00pm to 6:00am at Home Depot(!) for one of eight 42" 720p LCD TVs they had for like $369. Fantastic deal, though the standard tuner in it has gone out. HD receiver and all the other inputs still work fine. My brother and I were second in line (brought two people for redundancy... both to ensure our getting one of the TVs and to trade off time in the car for warming up/naps). An old middle eastern man and a soccer mom were actually wrestling on the ground over the last TV. Manager almost called the cops and vowed to never carry the TVs again!

[endlesszeal]

I think right after, Fry's had 320gb Seagates for $50 each on Saturday or some shit.

Anyway, I got a set of JVC Marshmallow earphones for $10 bucks. The best $10 headphones out there, got plenty of bass, decent mids and highs and drowns out a lot outside noise. Also picked up at 4GB SanDisk pen drive for $21. Both were at Circuit City.

Hang over plus shopping at 5 PM and avoiding crowd, FTW.
