  1. MMMM, Thanksgiving dinner served on the sidewalk does sound so nice!
  2. I did it all on-line and avoided the zoo. Went back to sleep afterward. Now up having coffee. This is awesome. No cold, no rain, no fights.

    Elmo Tmx

    Wouldn't it be something if they had tons of them on the shelves before Christmas and all those people who think they're going to make a killing on them were left holding theirs?
  4. Our news superstation, WBZ 850 AM, has a report from Marketwatch.com and tonight, they quoted Gottadeal.com reporting something about Walmart getting a jump on Black Friday....
  5. Bingo. I charge absolutely everything.

    Charity and BF

    Great topic. We pick a couple angels off the tree at church and sponsor a family with people at work. I'll second that this site has been great in helping. I went back to the Apple site yesterday afternoon and picked up 5 more refurb Ipods to donate to the church for kids who ask for them. I struck out on the Elmos today for the church raffle but I'll continue to keep my eyes open.
  7. The place where all the kids go to get the unique stuff that everyone else is wearing. I'm waiting for the day that my kid outgrows this fad.
  8. We had Metpay for years, largely because my employer offered a discount and they had weekly payroll withdrawals. I left that company years ago but the insurance continued. It crept up slowly until I finally decided to shop around. AAA cut my yearly premium IN HALF and INCREASED (100/300 to 250/500) my coverage. We went from paying 1200/6 months for 3 cars to paying 1200/year. We switched homeowners as well and got higher coverage for the same premium plus another $140/year off the auto. We use Progressive for the boat. I insure the collector cars with Grundy. It pays to shop around.
  9. I have not done this. i know of people who have. They did not say anything about a 2nd location and did not hook up to a phone line.
  10. Some people will go out and buy a second dish and box and hook it up in a detached garage or a vacation camp. All you do is call the provider and get the box activated and you're good to go for the price of an additional box vs entire new service.
  11. We've used one. No issues! I ran home and bought more while the deal was still good!
  12. You get a $10 certificate for every person you refer to the site that buys a certificate themselves. re: Does that mean 35.00 in addition to the 25.00 certificate or does it mean if for example my bill is exactly 35.00 then I get to use the certificate and my balance due would be 10.00??? This is in the terms for one of the restaurants that we go to: Minimum purchase of $35. Valid Sun.-Thurs. only. Dine-in only. Excludes tax, tip & offer. I did send customer service at restaurant.com mail to get a clarification but, I read this as having to spend $35 over and above the $25 certificate. Anyone?
  13. We use our Discover cashback bonus to give a handful of people LobsterGrams for Christmas. For the 2nd time in 3 years, they never showed up. This year, I order some at the beginning of November. they arrived 10 days later. I realized that I needed one more and ordered that on 11/24. It still has not arrived. Now, once these arrive, I still needed to call Lobstergram and use my Discover certificate to order an certificate in ethe name of the person who i was giving it to. Luckily, I could call Lobstergram directly, explain the situation and they had the capability to find the missing certificate from Discover in their system and place the order. The Discover certificate STILL has not arrived.
  14. We go every week. We love going to Midnight Mass on Christmas eve. It's a family tradition.
  15. I'm a MOPAR guy but you should check out any of the Chevy collector pages that are out there. Here is one: http://www.chevyworld.net
  16. What about an on-line purchase? My wife bought someone (!) one of these for his workouts on-line a the first week of December. What are the odds of Best Buy giving her the gift card if she went to the store?
  17. Last year on BF, I sent my wife down to Kohls. They were on sale for $159.00
  18. Probably too much for a 7yr old but this seems like a good deal to me. Sandisk Sansa 512mb MP3 player $99.99 with a free Napster starter pack and a Best Buy $50 gift card! I can't post the link since I am a newbie but check the best buy website.
