Best Buy on Clybourn in Lincoln Park, Chicago.

That is awfully strange... My friend had 90 BBB (obtained on eBay) and she was allowed to use them on the door-buster laptop.

I don't know if this was posted yet, but a woman was followed home after purchasing an XBOX 360 and was robbed at gunpoint fot it... http://www.macon.com/mld/macon/news/local/13252605.htm How absolutely sickening.

Just an incentive for working there... I don't see any wrong-doing.

Target is the best! I just walked into Target about an hour ago... I planned to do a lot of BF shopping but my niece was born on Monday and I changed all my plans... I had to go to Target today just to get some formula, diapers, and some premie onesies for my sister and I got a copy of the Simpsons Season Six and Simpson's Road Rage for GBA @ 3 in the afternoon! The shelves were STOCKED! I was very glad.

Ignoring your first comment, I too think it will be too cold... even fully clothed. We got an inch of snow today! Didn't stick though.

Bump.

256MB is not even sufficient to run Windows effectively so that will need to be upgraded. Also, let me just say that it is quite easy to install ram... like putting toast in a toaster... :). You just have to be careful. I know that some people are completely uncomfortable installing things in a computer, but trust me, paying someone $60-70 dollars is waaay to much. Get a friend to do it for you.

I got my ad today.

Just think of it this way: $3.44 is LESS THAN RENTING!!!!!! But I'm not helping, am I? :)

The "L" is our rapid transit system... It short for ELEVATED... We have rapid transit subways as well as miles of track above ground. Woot.

But there is a Circuit City, Best Buy, CompUSA, and Target :). (Not directly in the mall, but surrounding it).

Really? Where in Chicago are you? Last week I drove from Lincoln Park to Palatine in a record-breaking 17 minutes (obeying all traffic laws), so I know it can be done! And this was around 11-ish on a Saturday. I doubt there will be much traffic on Friday.

Ha. Too bad it will be 31 degrees on Friday in Schaumburg... that's the daytime HIGH. So at around 3 a.m. it should be about 10 degrees with the wind blowing. Har, har. har. I almost froze waiting for the L this morning, can't imagine how Friday will be.

50 bucks is no joke.

This is directly from the Woodfield website: "EARLY-BIRD HOLIDAY PAJAMA GIVEAWAY The first 100 pajama-clad early bird shoppers to arrive prior to 5 a.m. on Friday, November 25, at the mall's Door 1, next to Todai Seafood Buffet, still wearing pajamas, will receive a free Woodfield Gift Card valued at $50 and will also receive a pair of wearable reindeer antlers, distinguishing them as true paragons of perennial present-purchasing."

It will NOT have a DVD burner. It's a CD burner and a DVD drive combo. It can WRITE CDs, PLAY DVDs.

e-checks. Yes, quite convenient.

True. I've witness this happening plenty of times.

I actually found that EBGames and GameStop has really expensive N64 titles. I love classic gaming and I always try to collect games that are widely recognized as the "best" for each classic system... I get most of my games on eBay. It is truly a great resource!

Let me just say that Target is a classy store .

The CPU and amount of memory, etc may be the same, but the other parts (motherboard, hard drives, video cards, sound cards, fans, etc) are of lesser quality, but not necessarily bad... I would definately recommend one for light computer usage... ie surfing the web/email, word processing.

Ha! Yes, I love going with friends and taking turns while standing in-line to check out... Usually you're in such a euphoric mood you come back with a bagillion other dvd's, cd's, etc.

About 5 years ago my sister and I were Black Friday novices and we went to Best Buy at around 9 a.m. to casual shop. We stood in line for about 3 hours waiting to purchase a regularly-priced DVD player and one door-buster DVD. I just think it's pretty funny, looking back on it. :)
