Costco had an online only deal on the base entry level MacBook pro earlier this month. i5/8gb/256gb for 1199. sold out before I could make up my mind.

What type of laptop are you looking for?
(Mac, gaming)

Its more of a want than need right now, if my old Mac can make it through another year. maybe I'll try getting into a zen state like aquabliss :)

So what are you going to get?

Usually the only thing I look at are the prices of TVs bigger than what I have.

I?m usually a year behind because I don?t want to pay the premium prices. It?s amazing that you can buy 75? TVs for $600-700.

So you upgrade your TV every year?  That's crazy to me. 

Ours was purchased in 2008 and still works for us.  I think we paid $800 for 42" at Sam's Club, which was a killer deal at the time.  I know it's small by today's standards and doesn't have all the advances since then, but it fits the size our living room nicely.  Really, if it weren't for the fact that I still watch DVD's/Blurays I could get rid of our TV and nobody would miss it.
 
What?s the next big thing in TV?s?  3D seems like no longer a big deal, those curved sets are mostly out.  I guess 8k is a thing but you need like an 80? set or larger to tell the difference between 4K vs. 8k at 15ft away.  Even then it?s negligible.

Didn?t say I bought every year. I look at the prices to see if it?s worth the upgrade.

4K at home can be just as good as a theater and you don?t have to deal with the other people. Sports are also great to watch on your own big screen.

@mads: I hope you bought your new comp. The good deals are getting sold out. Buy now or risk of losing out on the deals. You can risk and roll the dice, and wait for Cyber Monday.
 
Amazon Echo .99 with Amazon music monthly subscription fo$7.99. So it?s around $9 for the Amazon echo. (cancel the monthly subscription after one month)
 
If your not a fan of Amazon Echo. There is a deal for free Google mini. Spotify premium $9.99 a month. (Cancel after first month)
 
Amazon smart plug $5 each through Best Buy.

Best Buy via Voice Only Deals (w/ Amazon Echo/Alexa-Enabled Devices) is offering Amazon Smart Plug (White) on sale for $4.99 by simply asking/placing an order w/ Alexa for Voice-Only deals w/ the phrase "Alexa, ask Best Buy about Voice-Only Deals". You'll need a Best Buy account to proceed with offer (linked w/ your Alexa device).

Hurry up and buy!  ;)


Someone told me it doesn?t work anymore, now someone told me it does work. Lol
 
Wyze cam form $20 but shipping is like $5.
https://wyze.com/wyze-cam.html
Amazon sells for like $24-25

But you can go to HD to try to price match. I went to 2 HD and one said no and had success with the others.

The camera works with Alexa and google assistant, Free 14 day cloud storage provided by aws, two way audio, night vision, they also have an iOS and Android app.
Even without the discount it?s at a good price point.

Got one of the Bird ES4 electric scooters (refurb) at WalMart.  Delivered in a couple days and really enjoying it so far.

I?m probably too old for this but who cares, it?s fun.
