  1. If this auction is correct, it's been discontinued and is no longer sold in stores. You might be able to find it on clearance at your local Target, Walmart, Kohls, Sears, Big Lots, etc.
  2. Canon LIDE scanners are great and offer the most bang for your buck. I agree with the following positive review:
  3. This is a long shot but do you remember specifically what you bought from this store around Christmas time?

  6. That's what I did with my laptop and it's definitely easier. If you were to upgrade to 2GB (2x1GB) you'd have to replace RAM: 1) by carefully removing the keyboard, insert RAM and snap keyboard back on. 2) by flipping laptop over, remove 2 small screws, insert RAM, screws back in and you're done! If you buy a single 2GB SO-DIMM you can go with option #2 :) Laptop RAM

No this isn't a "state of the art" machine and probably won't play the latest games due to the integrated graphics. Since it comes with Windows Vista, it is highly recommended that you upgrade to 2GB RAM. You don't have to upgrade the RAM immediately, you can upgrade later and this desktop will function with 1GB RAM. Again I would highly recommend upgrading from 1GB to 2GB RAM for $25.
  8. National Treasure would be my choice and it's rated PG. http://www.amazon.com/National-Treasure-Widescreen-Nicolas-Cage/dp/B00005JN5E http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3620527

  10. You're welcome :) I would print a few copies, just in case BB decides to remove the coupon before it expires.
  11. I wish BB had an active Reward Zone 10% or 12% coupon, bummer.

Newegg.com sells laptop RAM as cheap as $30, remember to buy the correct RAM for your laptop.
  13. This would be perfect for you - assuming it's still in stock at the end of this week.
  14. You're correct it's a great deal, that's why I posted it What kind of "power" do you expect for only $399?
  15. Because I'm good at what I do? If you bought this laptop last week for $419, bring your receipt in and request a price match. $20 partial refund :)

Enter your zip code Is this hot? Yes Why is this such a hot deal? It's available today, no waiting in line for 12 hours and no rebate hassles! Does this have built-in wireless internet (WiFi)? Yes Does this have a DVD Burner? Yes Should you wait until Black Friday? Only if you want to wait in line for 12 hours to save about $70.
  17. Congratulations! You are going to post a mini-review here after you receive it, right? I'm still holding out for a deal on the newer Garmin nuvi 255, I'll be waiting a while If the nuvi 260 drops to $149 to $189 I'll probably get one of those instead :)
  18. You're welcome and please keep us updated on what happens. I'm sure there are others out there who are in the same boat as you. If your local Fry's doesn't have it on sale, you can buy it online for $215 with free shipping :) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000UU7ZPS/
  19. How far are you from Fry's Electronics in Phoenix and Tempe? 3035 W. Thunderbird Road Phoenix, AZ 85053 (602) 445-8800 2300 West Baseline Road Tempe, AZ 85283 (602) 445-5100 My local Saturday newspaper had a Fry's Electronics "Dad and Grads" sale insert for this weekend. As I scanned the ad my eyes zeroed in on the Garmin nuvi 260 for $199 ad. If you're serious about getting a good deal on a great GPS, call Fry's see if it's on sale and go there now! Yes it's twice the cost of my infamous Garmin nuvi 200 for $99 but it's worth it. Also my nuvi 200 for $99 was a total fluke and required a lot of work. First you'd have to convince OD to pricematch Circuit City. Next you'd have to mail in a $70 rebate hoping it doesn't get lost or rejected. Finally the 260 is leaps and bounds better than the entry level 200. In the end I returned the nuvi 200 to OD in hopes of scoring a hot deal on the better 260 or 255. If you're holding out for another Garmin nuvi for $100 or even $129 you'll be waiting a very very long time. $149 is more realistic for an entry level Garmin nuvi or TomTom GPS. Here's a side-by-side comparison of the Garmin nuvi 200 vs 260 Here's a list of all GPS systems on sale in Arizona, I can't post a link as it's a competitor to GottaDeal. Search Google for Sunday Circular and you'll bump into it eventually :) http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/5090/azgpsky0.jpg
