lovetoshopCA Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I wanted one for our "tornado shelter" (aka walk-in closet). Unfortunately, the Haier 7" gets no reception in there using the provided telescoping antenna (it got nine channels in the living room, including the local NBC affiliate, a regional weather channel, and some religion and shopping channels). Should I bother keeping it for power-outages? I'm thinking a decent web-enabled cell phone is probably more useful. We already have one of those emergency weather radios, but sometimes it's nice to see the radar map so you know what's headed your way. Only if you have cable and can get a hookup in there. I haven't had a chance to try mine yet. Just charged it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyers12345 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Until you've been stuck in a basement for hours during widespread tornado warnings with no power or have been without power in an ice storm for 3 weeks, you won't realize how valuable a portable television is. The towers get backlogged or blown over during these midwest outbreaks. We had a small one (1.5") that I got years ago and it came in so handy during our last ice storm. There was no internet or cell service as the lines were caked with inches of ice. We had no power for nearly 3 weeks and had no clue what was going on in the outside world. Everything was pitch black and branches were falling all over the place. It sounded like artillery rounds at night. We've also been trapped at a campground (again, with no cell service) in thunderstorms. The radar alone would be worth it. Even if we never use it, the chance that we may was well worth the $32 (I got a 7"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrisinTn Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I've been stalking the little digital TVs for a while now... might make good Christmas gifts for a few relatives... just called my local store and they told me they thought they were still 30% off. Guess I will have to stop by after work to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovetoshopCA Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Little TV didn't work out for me, as I feared might be the case. Poor signal where I needed to use it. Nice little TV, though, so if you need something, it is decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice little TV, though, so if you need something, it is decent. Someone on another thread said that if you buy one of those cheap bow tie antennas from Radio Shack, you will pick up a lot more signals. That is what I am going to do. I think they said they are about $5. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Pam Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Slightly off topic... I was looking at the listings on perimeterperusing.com and was wondering if y'all had a preference for how long the list lasted or if you would prefer the listings to go from newest to oldest, instead of oldest to newest. I do not know if either can be customized but was thinking if a shorter time frame for the list and a reverse listing style is preferred, I could bring it to Brad's attention. Let's not clutter up the thread with replies, but feel free to PM me with your preferences. I'll tally responses through the weekend and will make a post on Monday on whether a change is wanted. Thanks for considering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cokemeyer Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Hi! Does anyone happen to know how Target will start handling the 10% off rewards cards when the register is now already taking 5% off for using the visa? Will they take 10% off and then 5% off of that, by any chance? I guess that is wishful thinking because I have 2 ipads to purchase for other people, lol! But they do have to have something in place in order to honor the 5% off cards they are going to issue you every time you fill 5 prescriptions, right? If they didn't give you something extra on that trip, it would not really be a "reward" to receive the card, right ? Just figured someone here might know! Thanks!

I know they weren't supposed to start the 5% thing until tomorrow but our store has been taking it off all week for some reason...

luvbargainz Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Hi everyone, When does baby stuff go on clearance? is it January? end/beg of Jan? Please let me know. we are expecting our first baby and am hoping to get some things on clearance Congratulations! Mid- to end of January, and end of July. January is more stuff - larger items like furniture, carriers, etc. Unfortunately, they've been leaving items at 15-30% for a long time, and salvaging more stuff, so it's difficult to find larger items at 50%, let alone 75%. But if you stalk regularly, you might luck out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for considering!Well guys, I didn't get a lot of response, and the issue of whether to truncate how long the clearance list covers was not addressed by anyone, but the request to have the listing reversed on perimeterperusing.com is unanimous by those who did respond so far. I'll continue to take PMs with input regarding this until tomorrow, and will then broach the subject with Brad. Again, I have no idea if the list can even be reversed, but I will ask and find out, if that is what the majority wants and lets me know by tomorrow.
