  1. Circuit City has the TomTom One 3rd edition for $149 -- but no carrying case or home charger. You can buy a home charger if you'll really need it, but most folks are fine with the cigarette lighter car adapter.http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/TomTom-ONE-3rd-Edition-GPS-Navigation-TOMTOMONE/sem/rpsm/oid/191752/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do
  2. There already is a Wii thread. Post there: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=91386 http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Threads/topicclosed.gif
  3. Kinda like the hot new releases at Blockbuster!
  4. I was at W-M today. They still had plenty of BF telescopes, Polaroid TVs, 20" HP Monitors, 8" digital photo frames, and various toys.
  5. Today I was at my Wal-Mart getting an oil change for my wife's car -- they had at least 2 dozen of the 8" picture frames from BF for like $48.88 or something like that.
  6. You will be able to update the maps for the Navigon at an additional cost. From my conversation with the Navigon tech guy, they bundle the POIs with the maps -- based on that, there is a chance that when you upgrade the maps you will get additional POIs. You can add POI lists to virtually every TomTom, Garmin, Magellan, and Mio. The Navigon does not have that capability at present. You should be able to easily add in many lists of additional POIs through sites like www.poi-factory.com, www.gpspassion.com (http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=56474), etc. (just Google for "POI List").
  7. http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/awwsmiley.gif Glad you like it... It's a new one from my millan.net subscription.
  8. Hanns-G 17" widescreen for $99.99 after a $50 MIR w/$12.69 s/h -- BF pricing ends today!: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254018 Hanns-G 19" widescreen for $169.99 plus $14.17 s/h: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824254015 Acer 22" widescreen for $199.99 plus $14.17 s/h -- BF pricing ends today!: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009094 I'd go for the 22" if I were you.
  9. You don't wanna be my friend? http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/tantrumsmiley.gif
  10. Is there a particular size you are looking for? Budget?
  11. Their phone number is at the bottom of every page of the Best Buy web site.
  12. Review: http://www.gpslodge.com/archives/014431.php#more

  14. You could try seeing if there is a map update at www.tomtom.com. Maybe the maps are screwy for your part of the country?
  15. Actually, what you are describing is a "stuck pixel": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defective_pixel If it were a dead pixel, it wouldn't light up at all. Most monitor companies allow up to 6 of them before they consider the monitor to be defective.
  16. Thanks for the link!
  17. Your welcome, but you bought yours -- I don't really have to make this thread next year do I? http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Sad%20Upset/scream.gif
  18. I would keep the TT1. I'd hold onto the c330 till you get towards the end of the return policy with Wal-Mart (I'm assuming that's where you got it). In the meantime, see if you can find a better price for a better unit than the c330. Or keep the c330, it's not a bad unit necessarily, just old stock and may lack some of the features on newer units.
  19. With the pressure off, we slept in till 5:45 am. 1st stop ~ 6:40 am ~ Dunkin Donuts: http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Coffee/millan_donutcoffee.gif 2nd stop ~ 6:55 am ~ Inkstop: (yeah, Inkstop!!! Who woulda thunk?) 2 GB Kingston SD Card - $9.99 2 GB Kingston Flash Drive -- (I have a strange addiction to flash drives, this is #10) http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Hmmm/crazyfool.gif In and out with no problems, my wife stayed in the car with the engine running. Inkstop opened at 4:30 am and still had all of their doorbusters (that I saw anyway). They had tons of employees -- I didn't even look for the two things I bought, I just asked one of the employees. 3rd stop ~ 7:15 am ~ Staples: Lap Desk - $19.99 2 packs of LightScribe DVDs - $12.98 each 7" Digital Photo Frame - $49.98 (totally unplanned, but I figured this would be good because I rarely get my photos printed.) Our line was soooooooo slow. It took an hour to checkout. http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Rude/raspa.gif 4th stop ~ 8:35 am ~ Home Depot: 2 toolchests - $5 each 2 pliers/wrench combo sets - $10 each 2 Ryobi Drill/Driver 115 piece sets - $15 each 1 Skill circular saw - $29 1 pack of 36-count Energizer batteries AA-size (not a special, but I needed them and $12.98 seemed like a good deal) Home Depot had it together -- it may have helped that it was a little later in the day, but they had employees AT THE ENTRANCE grabbing you as you came in to ask which doorbusters you were after. VERY NICE! It really sped things up!!! Hats off to the Wyomissing Home Depot! http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Happy/clap.gif 5th stop ~ 9:20 am ~ Bed Bath and Beyond: -- we looked at dishes, but didn't buy any. My wife bought jewelry cleaning solution. They were doing 8 oz sample cups of some fancy pods-style coffee maker. I got a cup and walked around with my wife. As we rounded the store, the three college-age kids who were getting their coffee at the same time I was were sitting in the massage chairs sipping their coffee!!! I said to them, "Free coffee and a free massage, what more do you need?" It was hilarious! http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/LOL/laugh3.gif 6th stop ~ 10:00 am ~ VF Outlet Village (http://www.vfovillage.com): No super crazy deals, just a normal visit to the outlets. Bass Outlet was having a nice sale - I got a "dressier" fall jacket and two casual shirts for $56. All in all, I must be livin' right, 'cause we got everything I was after -- including things at Home Depot and the outlets I wasn't even planning on. I heard from a friend of a friend that who went to the Wyomissing TRU that there were fistfights!!! She was at the Wyomissing Old Navy for their opening and people were yelling and swearing at eachother since not everyone could get one of the free MP3 players.
  20. More and more people are going to start shopping online.
  21. When I bought my 26" Olevia from Office Depot two BFs ago, an employee wheeled it out to our car on a handtruck. He helped me load it -- they aren't heavy, just awkward.
  22. I got my GPS units and hard drives already.... I feel the same relief you do. I'll try and pick up a few little things at Staples, but no big deal. And about $50 at Home Depot. Then it's off to VF Outlet Village (clothing). No rushing around, no sweat. :)
  23. 2GB Sansa Clip for $34.99!!! http://www.sandisk.com/Products/Catalog(1363)-SanDisk_Sansa_Clip_MP3_Players.aspx
  24. http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Yes/plus1.gif Yeah, I thought that BB had a good price on a front-loading washer/dryer pair, but you could probably arrive at 5 am and pick them up since most people won't be going to Best Buy for a washer/dryer. But any doorbuster -- not gonna happen once you get beyond 40th in line.
  25. Did you read my Short List from the first post in this thread? Or are you looking for other people's opinions besides mine?
