  1. wow that's a nice line of tents going on there! no pics of the porta potty?!
  2. the only difference i know of is that the new ones that are being shipped to stores come with a silicone jacket for the wii remote. the older version did not come with it, however you can request one for free from the nintendo website.
  3. i like thread tagging and the image viewing lightbox for attached images.
  4. you can buy used ones at gamestop
  5. pick up some people movement skills at fry's. they usually have 30 registers open, all in one line. on super crazy days, they'll open the secondary set of registers, and they could have anywhere from 50-70 registers open. they have ONE person standing at the front of the line, telling you which register to go to. further, the register will notify you that they are open by pressing a button to turn on a green light. when i worked at fry's way back when (meaning before the commission cashier days) i would always volunteer to be the "vanna."
  6. actually this is more efficient instead of everyone jumping around from line to line. if they have SEVERAL registers open, then it should keep moving.
  7. that is the same discount that employees gets. i will tell you from experience TVs have a pretty large markup. when i worked at circuit city in college, (our discount was cost, no additional markup) i got my parents one of those rear projection large sony whatevers for half off. then they also got a sony wega for half off, and the stand for 75% off. see if you can find out what the price would be, and if that would be worth it.
  8. it is mostly likely a dead pixel. as for the twitch, see what the max refresh rate on the monitor is and change the settings upwards. however, your video card needs to be able to handle it too, so if your computer crashes or won't show a picture, you'll have to reboot into safe mode (believe me... had this happen to me way too many times.) i don't know if BB let's you return for one dead pixel, but you can surely try. they might not have any left for your to exchange though.
  9. that's funny, because i used to be western digital only and i had 2 200gb ones fail on me - seagate only from now on!
  10. it's available only in stores, so i doubt you'll be able to order over the phone. http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Element-19-LCD-HDTV-FLX-1910/sem/rpsm/oid/175558/catOid/-12867/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do
  11. no. if it's out of stock then BB won't price match it.
  12. i got BB and CC, 2 kohls but no michaels!
  13. southern california: http://latimes.p2ionline.com/shoppingchannel/rop click on "Retail Goods" on the left, and then on "fry's electronics." of note for both ads: compaq intel celeron M for 298.99 for 1gb of RAM, compared to the one at BB which has 512mb (which is a moot point if you're just going to yank out the ram and upgrade, but for those who don't want to...)
  14. fry's northern california ad: http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/ROP/ads.aspx?adid=5387875&advid=32664&type= http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/ROP/ads.aspx?adid=5387876&advid=32664&type= http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/ROP/ads.aspx?adid=5387878&advid=32664&type= of note, samsung 32" LCD TV (but it's 720p, shouldn't be a prob with the size) for only 449. too bad i can't buy it. and the fact i'm not in line either.
  15. it was a bonus doorbuster posted only on the best buy site.
  16. please note that outpost.com and the actual fry's stores may not have the exact same items or prices - their website is independent of the store (most of the time.)
  17. closing thread as per request!
  18. it is not in the ad. it was posted as a bonus deal on the BB website: http://www.bestbuy.com/thanksgiving2jt
  19. try the department stores this weekend (such as macy's) and cruise their bag section. they may have additional markdowns on coach and dooney and bourke bags. you may get lucky and find something if it hasn't been picked over yet. otherwise... if you are near a coach outlet, try that. or you can find just as nice guess bags bags at macys that imitate coach and prada bags. the big g's instead of c's, the triangle G that looks like a prada symbol. also, see if you can pick up a "lesportsac" bag cheap this weekend at the dept stores. those are nice bags.
  20. please continue the discussion in this thread: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=88586 thread closed.
  21. it is on the last page of the printed ad on the BB site: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8595308&st=8595308&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=1190678470786
  22. no, it is in store only.
  23. LOL let's play the "how old do i look again?" game. i graduated from college in 2003, so i'm a ripe old 26 (almost 27.) some of the D&B bags are cute, but i prefer their classic monograms bags so that in theory, they never look out of style. right now i'm carrying burberry but i've had it for over a year now and i really don't want to give it up right now. i also treat it like a baby, keeping it clean and out of rain and amusement parks (that's where i dig up the fake bag from thailand... because i don't care if you spill anything on it. cost me less than a 10 dollar bag here, i think... 2 bucks.) my mom used to be a huuuuuuuuuge d&b fan, back when i was little they had the duck on there, so i called it the "duck brand." and for random info: http://www.hilary.com/fashion/fakeorfendi.html and of course, the new tupperware party is the purse party... i live in LA, so i see everything out here bag wise. i think if i ever go back to northern california, the name brand craziness should die down a bit, except in the city (san francisco).
  24. i'd call the store, but most circuit citys: the ps3 SHOULD be locked up because of the price the monitors usually aren't out on the floor.. but due to BF that could change.
