  1. Well Walmart would not match their website so I walked... I didnt even bother to metion it was 19.99 at Target and Best Buy. I just ordered it from Amazon, got free super saver shipping, a $5 movie credit, no tax and its delivered to my door! We saw the movie before so 1 more week is not going to kill us to wait! :)
  2. I get the whole not matcing other online places like Amazon... But NOT their own website! Thats just bad business! The thing I find pathetic is I went to walmart simply because it was closer and I was in that area, NOT that it was any cheaper than anyone else. I was shocked that it was MORE than everyone else including their own website this is why I double checked their website! Thought it was just miss priced. IF I had the Best Buy or the Target ad up on my phone they WOULD have priced matched it. They were ALL the same price!!! This wasn't some "online exclusive" deal... just a silly dvd! Walmart USED to be the cheapest place to buy new release DVD's! Not so much anymore I guess! :-/
  3. SO! I go to Walmart to by my daughter Despicable Me... Earlier today I was online looking for the best price. It was the same at Best Buy and Walmart. 19.98 for the double disk. Walmart is closer so I went there. I get to the store and it is 24.98. So I use my phone and get on WM.com and pull up the price. I take my disk to the cashier and said, that is listed at 19.98. She calls over the mananger, he takes the disk goes back to the electronics department, (TAKES FOREVER!!!) comes back and says, we dont show it listed in the flyer. I show the guy my phone and he says oh, that is walmart.com! We do not compete with the website. I said so what, you are not going to adjust the price? He says no, we cant do that. I said, REALLY??? You are not going to match your own site?? He says no we do not price match the website. I said well then you can forget it! IF YOU dont want my money I will just go buy it at Target or Best Buy! I was so pissed off!!! What the crap walmart!?!?!?! They will price match anyone else BUT their own website! BAD Business move!!! Second thing that happened tonight was KFC! Go to order the 3 piece meal, drumstickS & thigh... Apparently you get 2 thighs and 1 drumstick!!! My 13 y/o says to the guy at KFC "THEN WHY IS THERE AN "S" ON THE END OF DRUMSTICK AND NONE ON THE END OF THIGH?!?!?!?! He didnt have an answer to that one! LOL WOW really??? What a crappy night! THIS IS WHY I SHOP ONLINE!!!! ARG!!!!
  4. I would ask your daughters math teacher and/or the high school math teachers. See what they want her to have. Some teachers require a specific model. I think our school wants them to have a TI-82 or better.
  5. http://www.buy.com/prod/cavalry-160gb-3-5-7200rpm-usb-2-0-external-hard-drive-with-one-touch/q/loc/101/205714254.html Here is a 160gb external hard drive. Its 60 bucks with free shipping. Should be big enough to hold everything in one spot. They have bigger ones. I think they have a Western Digital 500gb for 90 bucks... It will just depend on how much space you think you will need and how much you want to spend.
  6. well sort of... A usb hard drive is basically a computer hard drive in and external case. Main advantage is the amount of storage. You can get a lot of space for a little money.... and I wouldnt want to risk losing one of the flash drives... or have to try to remember what flash drive had what on it.... If you have a desktop computer up can leave it sit right there and just back up as you go... just a part of the computer. I use one to back up all my pictures, music, documents etc... just my .02 :)
  7. Check your local pawl shops... I bought one for my daughter for... well... the price of lunch! :) But I think he said he normally sells them for 25-50 bucks.... depending on which calculator and its condition.
  8. I would just purchase a usb hard drive vs multiple flash drives. Buy.com usually has some fantastic prices on them.
  9. I got one last year for Christmas from my mom. My oldest DD loved it. She liked to cut back all the spices and dry them all over my fridge! (She would use potato chip bag clips with the magnets and hang all the spices from them upside down to dry) I personally did not care that much for it. It took up a lot of counter space. I did not have any other place to put it. And, it was noisy! There is an air pump (like for a fish tank) that kicks on and off at all hours of the day and night. Then the light is very bright and is on for like 50 hours a day! Let's just say I was really glad when all the plants finally died! When we walked thru the stores we would see the replacement plants and they were expensive. Like 25 bucks! I'm sure you can find them online cheaper but it was a good excuse NOT to buy more! Sorry honey 25 bucks is ALOT of money! LOL So mine now sits in the basement... anyone wanna buy a used aero garden??? only used once! hehehehehe
  10. It is out of print. Only place you will be able to get it is on Ebay or Amazon for an inflated price.
  11. Ok so I have to totally brag here! I love these cameras! I have an old one and it works great but I made a mistake and I picked up one of the new ones! OMG I was in love with it. Loved how much faster it was! Anyway! I searched and searched! Every day it became my mission to find the best possible price on this bad boy! Sunday morning I hit the jackpot! I was on Ritz camera found the camera listed a couple of times on their site for different prices... which I thought was odd but hey I liked the cheap price! 449 WITH 2 LENS!!!!!!!!!!! I was like holy @&*%! So I did a quick search on Ebay... just to make sure! Low and behold Ritz has the same deal on Ebay. 449! THEN I signed up for the Ebay mastercard!!! GOT ANOTHER $30.00 bucks off!!!! That was a major score! $419.00 SHIPPED I was doing the happy gottadeal dance all morning! Only bad thing for all the rest of you thinkin OMG I WANT IT! Shortly after I bought it they saw the mistake pulled the Ebay auction and changed their website! So it was an obvious error. But on their behalf they did honor the price! It has been shipped and will be delivered on Thursday! I CAN'T WAIT! Just in time for Christmas!!!!
  12. http://www.twilightteez.com/ this is assoiciated with Stephanie Meyer so it is an authentic site...
  13. THOSE WILL WORK! PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEHEHEHEHE I love it! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
  14. I saw that one and I have it on my computer just in case. I was really looking for something on the hamburger... cause that is what she hates the most. heheheh Guess I should have stated that in the post. But thank you for your reply!!! I appreciate all the help! :)
  15. Hey Everyone! What I need is a scan of a coupon for either for the restaurant (Preferred) or for the sandwiches you purchase in the store. It can even be expired! hehehe Why would you want an expired coupon you ask? My brother and I are making our own version of Deal or No Deal for our parents for Christmas. We have purchased 11 different gift cards valued from 1.00 up to 100.00... Anyway, my mother ABSOLUTELY HATES!!! and I mean HATES! White Castle. So I need to find a coupon for a free sandwich or 50 cents off or whatever for the .01 booby prize. It will be so Awesome! Now I just need to figure out a way to get the White Castle into the the briefcase that they choose cause I know they will go for broke to win the 100.00 prize. Can't wait to see her face when they wins the White Castle coupon! I know pure evil! But its so much fun and they will love it! Oh and yeah they will get to keep all the gift certificates after the play the game. Anyway PM me if you have one and I will send you my email address. I am counting on you guys to pull thru for me! I know someone out there has one sitting in the back of drawer!!!! Thanks!
  16. My kids have those stupid things! hehehehe One DD has the original one where it just moved its head and wagged its tail. My other DD has the second gen one where it taps it foot! oooh I know! impressive! The new one stands up and does a little jig of sorts. They both used them for about a week and now they sit on the shelf. They both have seen the new plushy one and thinks they are dumb. They like just hooking the mp3 players and laptops into the stereo better. :)
  17. Aiptek P-HD Camcorder for $88 bucks at Target. This is a pretty good deal! I think the HD ones usually are around 150. The Kitchen-aid blender has held up nicely to making margaritas for a few years now...
  18. I have a 20 year old KA mixer that I wouldn't trade for the world... ok well maybe a new artisan one in black or red... My mom had the professional one where the bowl lifts up to the head. I personally prefer the old one. I find it difficult to scrape the sides when I need to and adding ingredients isnt as easy as the old one. I even used my mom's several times before I judged it. One thing I can say about the mixer... I will never own a different brand!!!
  19. ok here are two suggestions.... last year my brother and I went in on the "12 days of christmas" for our parents. We spent about 300.00 total. Some things were little and others were bigger. We picked some things for our dad and some things for our mom so it was even. 12-bottle of beer, 10 lottery tickets, We bought picture drink coasters for the 8th day. There were 4 in each box so bought 2. Put pictures of the grandkids in them. 8 drink coasters, Made up some coupons for help around the house... 6 hours of help. for the 1st day we gave them each 50.00 in chips from the casino. They really enjoyed that. We sang the song as we showered them with the gifts. This year we are doing a "restaurant of the month club". We are going to their favorite restaurants and getting them gift certificates, then we are going to have a calendar made with pictures of the grandkids and attach one gift card on each month. We will probably make up some story about how they have won this "fabulous dining experience to their local establishments"... They have everything they could ever need so we just try to go the more creative route. Its fun to do for them and they REALLY enjoy it. Good luck!
  20. On the email I got from Aero it said 30% off everything INCLUDES clearance. I was there last night bought 180 worth of clothes for 100 bucks tax included! score! Also they have a buy a hoodie for 34.99 and get one free. The 30% off worked on that as well. The hoodies sale was for the sweatshirt kind AND the hoodie sweaters.
  21. you can play any GH game with the guitars... do not have to have any other guitar heros for it to work :)
  22. OMG is that cheap! We have GH for PS2 but 56.99 for GH Aerosmith AND 2!!!! wireless guitars for the wii??? INSANE! Thats a done deal! hehehehehe **Oh yeah and it WAS FREE SHIPPING!!!!!!!! THATS A DOUBLE SCORE!
  23. Yes they do make a few different clock/speaker systems for the zune. Do a google search for zune docking. There are several different brands etc. The nice thing about them is it also charges the zune too. I personally vote for the zune.
  24. I had the DC14, but lost it in my divorce I have considered buying a new one but I'm not sure if I am going to keep the carpet. The whole house has nice hardwood floors underneath. The Dyson is FANTASTIC! I had a Doberman and all those little black hairs got into every inch of the carpet and the Dyson picked them all up. By far the BEST vacuum!!! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! Very easy to clean the cansiter. No crappy filters to have to take outside and bang against the concrete to clean. The wand in the handle is very easy to use and easy to switch to when needing to get into those tight spots. :) That is a great price! As far as the warranty goes. Most things are going to break right away if they are going to break. I have bought a lot of electronics that are re-mans and have never had a problem with them. Hope that helps! :)
  25. We have a PS2 and have 2 wireless guitars. They have been available for at least a month now. :)
