  1. Canon Vs Nikon is going to be like Republican Vs Democrat.
    You're going to get die hard answers for either one.

     

    Personally, I've always had Canon and never had a problem with them, but I've never owned a Nikon so I can't give a personal opinion on them.

     

    Between the Canon T6 and the Nikon D3400 though, I would jump on the Nikon in a heartbeat.

    It has better resolution, faster shooting, better battery life, higher ISO, and the Canon has Wi-Fi, but the Nikon has Bluetooth (which should offer better connectivity)

  2. I think spending overall will be down due to the uncertainty of privitization of Social Security which the Republicans have wanted for a long time and worry about repeal of obamacare which will leave many with high health care costs.

     

    "Repeal of obamacare which will leave many with high health care costs"

     

    Ahh yes.

    Because everyone's costs have been dropping so substantially over the past few years.

  3. Several have mentioned using it for a certain amount of time and getting X amount back.

     

    The length of time is irrelevant. The amount spent vs. what you get back is what we should be tracking.

     

    In my own experience over the past month I've gotten back 1% of the total spent.

     

    I haven't tried cashing in yet, and I've heard of people having problems doing so.... I guess we'll see.

  4. Some stores allow customers in the store, but BF items are off limits until a set time.

    If you can get in and find out where the items are that you're interested in, you're already ahead of the game.

     

    My #1 rule is NO BUGGY!

    This is where tag-teaming really helps.

     

    If you have a couple people with a short list of what they are to get, all items can be carried to checkout.

    If the list is too large for one trip, you can have someone waiting in a designated area with a buggy.

    Grab what you can, dump it in the cart and go back for the rest.

     

    I'm usually checking out at one of the many empty registers within five minutes of the start of the sale, while most others are frantically trying to push their carts through an impenetrable mob, trying to keep up with their children, and wondering why the item isn't located where it's supposed to be.

  5. Once you get the router set up, there is an option for "disc" mode and something else.

    You have to go to the other option.

     

    It took me a while to figure that part out.

     

    I thought I was doing something wrong, but the router was set up right to begin with.

     

    As long as it's in "disc" mode, it just plays the discs and has no internet connection.

  6. Got to Wal*Mart at 4:40 (as always) to see where everything is.

     

    Our store has everything on pallets with shrink wrap. Everyone can crowd around whatever it is they want to get and at 5am the employees cut open the shrink wrap and things start flying.

     

    Well, that is until today.

     

    When we got there, the only associates on the floor were at the registers.

    No managers anywhere, no associates manning the pallets.

     

    At 4:45 customers began tearing into the pallets and mayhem ensued.

    There was a frenzy of people going apes because it wasn't time yet, and it was a couple minutes before ONE associate started yelling that they couldn't get anything before 5am.

     

    That did no good, and before 5am ever rolled around, most pallets were empty.

     

    You would never know by today that the economy was in poor condition.

    This year was the most crowded I have ever seen it .... EVER!

     

    We left Walmart empty handed, went for breakfast, came home & got 90% of our shopping out of the way on Amazon.
