I honestly have no idea what the budget will be this year. Very much up in the air right now.

Unless you know what he want's it's hard to say on the video card. You would need to know what company's chipset he wants nVidia or AMD, then what series of card he wants. You can have a price range from a couple hundred dollars for a decent GPU to in excess of a thousand for a high end.

Could be, I also read an article that with their closing some of the toy manufacturers are not getting the sales they expect which goes to show if you don't kill the company with HORRIBLE blood sucking financing terms then they can still make money.

Ya I read this in a couple of different articles last night. Hope it all works out, my daughter is bummed whenever we drive past a closed store.

My guess is we hear from him towards the end of the month if he is going to do them this year.

Very cool. I'm doing a hell pit this year. It will look like a blocked off hole in the yard with red lighting and fog coming up from it. Working on the build now.

We have decided it's the year to replace our daughters iPad. It's the original Air and is showing it's age, screen was replaced a few years back due to a drop and is cracked again. The place that replaced it used cheap glass so it was just a matter of time. She treats it pretty well and it's always in a good case. So we figured this year she will get a new one with more storage space on it.

Sam's usually has some good deals on them. Check back in the archives and you should be able to find them. I've never bought one on BF we usually pre-order ours as we did this year.

Congrats all

Tell him to write it on some store letterhead and we can pretend it's a BF leak.

We do the lights also. Usually make some hot cocoa to take with us, throw on our matching PJ's and head out once it's dark. We get back the little one put's out the cookies and milk and heads off to bed.

Well I have to admit I watched every episode of Dukes when I was young. Loved that show. I still watch whenever I catch them on TV. lol

I have a Ring Pro, you don't have to get the monthly/yearly account. If you don't have it you just don't get the recorded videos so you have to look at what's going on while it's happening. We love ours and the yearly bill to allow us to store wasn't bad.

I would say your best bet is look at some of the archives from last year for the PS4 bundles and you should get close if not better this year. No new systems that are huge this year so I would think there should be some good deals to help stock move along.

A Christmas Story (we have it on for 24 hours during the marathon), Elf, Christmas with the Kranks, Grinch (most versions)

I totally do not understand the microwave thing.

I'm sure we will end up seeing most of these. My m-i-l will see ALL of them lol.

I've seen every James Bond movie multiple times. I'm a spy type movie person, love action films. Later 007 movies are less about women he can conquest.

I never could and still can't get into Star Wars. Heard something once that made me laugh. Someone was talking about how awesome it was and the other person looks at them and says you realize Star Wars is just a space soap opera don't you. Told it to a friend who is all into it and he was like NO IT ISN'T it's about blah blah blah and I was like ya I think they did that same think on earth last week on Days Of Ours Lives.

About the only things I've decided on if I find a decent deal is the new Apple Watch for my wife to replace her first gen one.

We usually do a breakfast on Christmas morning, really enjoy that one.

Well that's sad, hopefully they get their brick and mortar plan working and build things back.

So it looks like it's moving forward, hopefully they get the brick and mortar worked out also.

I remember one year almost throwing down with a guy in Best Buy. He wanted a GPS so bad he almost knocked a visibly VERY prego woman down to get in front of us. Explained to him for his own safety he should probably leave at that point. I'm not a small guy and neither was my Brother In-Law standing right next to me.

We will stop using it. We use different cards or cash and I don't want to have to route that through their pay app. NO THANK YOU. So I guess we just shift back to shopping other stores. We usually end up with $80-$100 a year that we cash in for BF.
