  1. Apple series 3 is $129 on BF at Walmart. I think I'm going to grab me one.

     

    Any idea if this will be online? Or is it in-store purchase only???  

    I've read the ad, fine-print, but it still seems unclear.

  2. PNAMBIC:  Their current TV they only have the Direct TV and a DVD player plugged into it.  Occasionally they will plug in the Wii, but only if the grands are visiting, and anymore they don't even play it. 

     

    Their hearing is bad, vision is bad, and they sit fairly close (at least dad does). He has Parkinson's so he doesn't get up & move around much!
    The current tube tv is around 30" maybe? Can't remember.  It is in a wood entertainment center that we 'll have to get rid of with a new TV.

     

    The other day gottadeal posted a one-day TV deal at Best Buy ebay. Toshiba 40" Class - LED - 1080p - HDTV.   

     

    Like I said, I don't know much about TVs, but it got decent reviews on Best Buy, so I decided to get it; no standing in line, shipped for free.  Hopefully it's good!!!

     

    (p.s. I could not figure out how to reply with a quote, sorry)

  3. Pnambic, or anyone else that is TV-smart... :)

    I am not a TV watcher and don't know much about TVs.  We have 46" Sony that we bought in 2010 when it came with a "free" PS3.  it still works great!

    My Senior parents still have a tube TV and would like a flat screen. I'm hoping to pick one up for them this year, preferably online.

     

    They would like at least 32", maybe 40", and besides 1080 I don't think they need anything else, nothing fancy... 

     

    What kind of TV and deal should I be looking for?  I'm definitely willing to pay a little more to get it online so I don't have to go out and also they live 2 states away!

     

    Any advice is appreciated! THANKS

  4. HELP! my mother (70) has a mini HP that is a few years old and pretty much died on her.  She is looking to get a laptop (NOT mini) - preferably online.   :)

     

    She uses the computer for:

    • webmail (sbc)
    • placing orders (web also)
    • create/share documents (She has MS Ofc 10)
    • she has a desktop computer that has Win 7 - would a Win 8 laptop be a problem on the same network?

    She doesn't play games. :)  It's mostly just for light business use (demonstrator for stampin up)

     

    We could use help wading through the computer specs for a good deal.  Are there any online laptop deals for around $300 that are a decent computer - if you don't play games?

    Thank you!!!

  5. Was looking at the HP Pavilion at Sams Club for $399. i5, 6GB/500GB,14". Does this look like a decent laptop? Doesn't look like it has a CD/DVD Drive though (not sure how important that would be for him though).

    We bought my mom a netbook last year without a CD/DVD drive and it has turned out to be a PAIN! We won't do that again. :)

  6. I'm looking at a desktop Staples has on the Ad - it's a doorbuster- any chance that would be online? I really don't want to go out... :)
  7. I am so confused by all the processors out there. We haven't bought a new computer in years - and desperately need a new desktop. I wish they would make the processor info standard so it was easier to compare! I hear i3, i5, i7, dual core, quad core, etc...

     

    This is a family computer, we use it for web browsing, homework, a few games (but not the hard core "gaming") photoshop, etc. Our current (old emachine) also has a second hard drive in it that we store backup stuff on. Would like to move that into a new computer if possible.

     

    Any suggestions? Can you help me understand all the new processor mumbo jumbo? THANKS

     

    P.S. would love an online deal - I am not fond of black friday traffic! :cool:
