  1. I have used these over a half dozen times with no issues whatsoever. I don't think you can use more than one at a time but most restaurants have different dollar value certificates ($10/$25/$50/$100) with different minimum purchases. For example, I usually buy the $25 certificate which has a $35 minimum purchase. All certificates also have a mandatory tip of 18% of the full value of the meal BEFORE the certificate is subtracted. The minimum cash outlay for a meal with a $25 certificate is just over $20. $2 for certificate (assuming you buy at 80% off)$35 of food$6.30 mandatory tip$2+ tax($25) credit for certificateI usually end up paying about $30 for a meal for 2 at a nice sitdown restaurant (roughly $40 bill plus tax/tip/cert) which beats spending over $50 for that same meal. At pizza places we have fed 4 adults w/ leftovers for under $25.
  2. That's one of the reason's I am hesitant to get it... Somehow I'll end up with more stuff I don't need because it was a good deal and I need to justify my purchase of prime!
  3. What were you thinking That is my one and only beef w/ buy.com is as their "original price" is sometimes absurd. I bought a Christmas present that I thought was a good deal ($20 down from "$40") only to find it at a chain home improvement store for $10 after a $5 rebate (normal price $20). I thought about returning it but I didn't figure it was worth the effort for $10. That being said, a lot of times there are great deals there, just make sure you do a quick amazon search (or ebay or whatever you are familiar with) to make sure it is a good deal unless you are familiar with the product and its value. I bought an amazing flat screen mount for 80% off the price of a mediocre mount I was going to buy a few months ago.
  4. Thanks, I bought two polo shirts for under $16 after shipping. (Work has jeans Fridays all summer so I need to stock up on polos.)
  5. Oh, for those who haven't ordered yet... If you are looking for something to get free shipping you might want to get a SATA cable. I knew this was "bare/oem" but I thought I had extra cables from my old PC but alas they were the previous version, not SATA. My free shipping was very quick (order Friday, rec'd Tuesday).
  6. $100 = FREE SHIPPING... the hard drive is $99.99 w/ a $30 rebate. Even if the rebate doesn't come this is still a good deal. It would be easy to spend $100 on a 1TB hard drive.
  7. It looks like I need a small purchase to get free shipping... Found a 48 cent retractable phone cord... don't need it but it saves me $5.
  8. Back in stock at a slightly lower price, $33.99. I received this a few weeks ago and it is a very substantial and does not feel cheap at all. I haven't mounted it yet since I want to run some wires in the wall first but I am very happy with this purchase even though it is now 50c cheaper.
  9. Beatles Rock Band is first. $27.49 http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51pjmporQCL._AA120_.jpg
  10. FYI the KCTAKE30 is for Kohls cardmembers only and the $50 free shipping code has expired...
  11. I have a 32in Westinghouse (2-3 years old) with their "waterfall" design. I didn't think that this would work though as the back is set up for one of the smaller mounts. Let me know if I am mistaken and mine is sitting on a sketchy bookshelf in our exercise area and I would prefer to mount it rather than find it in pieces some day. Upon further review it might work but it does need the smaller screws. I bought a mount at IKEA of all places and the screws were too big but after looking at Westinghouse's compatibility chart it might work if I can find the screws that fit into the back of the TV. For larger TV's (I also have a 42" panasonic and the mount does work with that) they have larger screws that are closer to the corners of the TV whereas my westinghouse 32 has 4 smaller screws closer to the middle of the TV.
  12. For what its worth they appear to be legit... but I have never heard of them. http://reviews.cnet.com/4011-5_7-275338.html
  13. They also have replica jerseys for $30 (25.50 using 15% off code). Not bad.
