teresa92 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 I've been waiting for a sale on a Tivo DVR. I got a 40-hr box for $79.99 (after $20 instant savings + $100 Tivo rebate) plus free shipping at Circuit City. :) http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/productDetail.do?oid=97743&c=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Teresa, Great deal thank you for posting this :) Don't forget about TivoToGo. We recently purchased the Netgear MA111 which connects our Tivo to the wireless network instead of using the phone line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-bystander Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Great deal! I still have my old 20hr virgin Tivo... too chicken and/or too lazy to upgrade it. What kind of Tivo do you have, Ross? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 What kind of Tivo do you have, Ross?The one advertised in this thread because it was $99 - $100 rebate = FREE at BB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edmicman Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Do you have to do the monthly fee? Or can you just get the device and record stuff on your own? Are there alternatives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i-bystander Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Some products come with free Tivo Basic, although I'm sure you would still want to upgrade it to a regular subscription after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brynnfromtheblock Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Check with your cable provider too. I wanted Tivo but wasn't sure about the $10 mo/$299 lifetime (which is only the lifetime of the unit you register with) costs. I found out that with the Adelphia Powerlink service I had DVR service was free, I just had to bring my old box in and trade for a DVR box (it's $3.95 a mo but I was paying that for the old digital box anyway) So I didn't have to buy a box and can upgrade/trade this one in for free if there are any problems. (I'm sure I can buy my own box too, just haven't looked into it yet) I wasn't really sure if I wanted/needed this but with 3 kids I didn't realize how often I'd miss a good portion of shows to brush teeth, get drinks, separate fighters etc!!! This is a must have!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
