Hi all! I have 3 boys all asking for an iPad for Christmas......is there any hope of a deal or any suggestions on best place to buy one?? Any help appreciated!!!

Does anybody have a link to the coupon with the 12/25 date??? It would be so nice of you to post it if you do!!! I wonder if they have this available online and we use the code if it will work.....I would think so if the code is the same.....lets all hope!

I was actually looking at the outlet refurb ones today. Where can I find a code? That would be a lot cheaper than the EPP discount, and for kids I would rather go that route...

OKAY...I have a couple questions about netbooks....I have 3 boys ages 15, 11, and 8. My older 2 use my laptop for Itunes, facebook (15-year-old), and to play a couple games. I think one is an online game and the other is loaded on my laptop. I was thinking about getting them Dell netbooks for Christmas (I don't want to hear any nasty comments about Dell...I love Dell and am getting a Dell). We get a discount at Dell because my husband works for P&G. My question is, can they do all of these things on a netbook? Not heavy gaming, just a couple, and mainly surfing and Itunes. Some youtube for videos. I doubt they would watch movies on them because we have a DVD player in our van for travel. I just need some advice from somebody who knows more than I do!!! Thanks!!

Well, like I said, I will NEVER shop TRU again. This is the second year in a row that they did not have items advertised in their ad. Everybody was rude, not doing anything about people running and pushing and actually taking items out of other peoples hands!!!!! I just could not believe that people could act like that. I am going to finish my shopping online, even if I have to pay shipping! The manager that my mother went back and spoke with said they had 20, but he does not know what happened and how two peopel made it in the store, got the ticket clip, paid for them, picked them up at the service desk and out without somebody questioning why they were buying all of them. I'm sure they will pop up on ebay soon. So sad. Luckily, my sister was after one for my niece who hasn't asked for it, she just thought she would like it. I was after the Optimus Prime transformer that I can't find anywhere, but of course, they didn't get it. BF just is not what it used to be!

Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but got to TRU this morning at 3:40, and there were people who had camped out and stuff, which we usually dont see at TRU here.......Anyway, we got in line, waited until 5am, and when the they opened, somebody (must have been an employee) opened the exit doors and two men went in and bought every Zune they had to resell on Ebay. This must have been a set up, because I have been going out on BF for 10 years and those doors always stay closed. Nobody stopped them from going in.....my mom spoke with the manager later and he said he was in the office and did not realize what happened until it was too late. As if that was not bad enough, they did not even receive the Transformers Optimus Prime that was on their ad, and there were people buying the $9.99 mp3 players by the entire display rack....AND, one lady every took one right out of another lady's hand!!! The employees were hateful, and all but one manager was very hateful. They will not ever get any more of my money for sure! People were pushing and yelling and cursing....it was the worst I have seen in 10 years of doing this.

Zune or Ipod nano????? I was going to get my two older boys the 4 gb ipod nano for Christmas, but now TRU has the 30 gb Zune for $80, so which is better? I need major help here. It seems to me that the Zune is a better deal, but I don't know anything about either one. Hellpppp!!!!!

My sister just saw this and is thinking of getting it for her girls. Walmart has a bundle on their website under $200...Amazon has it but not in a bundle deal, but who knows, maybe soon??? Good luck!

My two older sons ages 9 and almost 13 are wanting the ipod nano for Christmas and the iHome thing....do these EVER go on sale, online or in store????

I just saw on the home page that the Vsmile is $30 at Amazon.com, but when I link to it, it only shows $30 if you get an Amazon credit card......is that the deal or is it supposed to be $30 without getting a credit card???? Need help!!

I hope this is the correct place to post this. My son is begging for one this year, but I am not paying the high price for it. I have found it on Cingular website for $100 after rebate if I purchase a new line, which I could do and then give my middle son my older son's phone number he has now and get him a Firefly. I am looking for input on any deals on the SLVR or info regarding if they are as good as all the hype about them. I don't mind paying $100 if they are a good phone. Any information on hte firefly appreciated too. THANKS!

I need some help. My 11 yo son asked for an Ipod...which I laughed at....but I am willing to get him a reasonable MP3 player. My only problem is I don't know anything about them...I don't want to go real expensive, and was wondering if anybody here has any good info on some that are in the BF ads??? Any info appreciated.

Yes, I am first in line every year for the past 5 years at Toys R Us, along with my mom and sister. One year they even gave us coffee and pop tarts.
