Well, with everyone else I know seemingly getting new toys and gadgets, I had to give in. Well, I didn't have much of a choice. Sometimes the deals are TOO GOOD to pass up; As was the case today. After a meeting at the Best Buy this morning, management announced what basically turned out to be a fire-sale on all of the store's "open box" items. They're desperately trying to get rid of all of that inventory by the weekend of "Black Friday". Anything left over will probably end up on a table on high discount for anybody (public included) to buy. So, since this was the first day and the meeting ended fast, I walked around the home theater department and looked at some televisions. One of which was a Panasonic 46" plasma. Now, this TV for us, retailed at around $1300. I walked out with it for $600 even. Add in a Panasonic Blu-Ray player for $100 (retail around $300) and I am one happy man. I mean...one VERY happy man. Not only that, but I ended up selling my old TV about 2 hours after I got home. BOOM! All is well.
As for the rest of the afternoon/evening, it was spent hooking everything up, adjusting the picture, testing out some CoD:MW2 and NBA Live, checking the Blu-Ray player, doing work on the computer, and ending with some Pistons action (we beat the Wizards) and a couple more rounds of CoD:MW2. Now I'm finishing up this blog entry before I hit the bed only to wake up in around 4 hours for work at 5am. Yup, 5am. Damn holiday hours. Haha. HEY, for ONE DAY A WEEK and a discount like you read above...I'M WORKING MY DAMN SHIFT!!! You best BELIEVE THIS, SON!!!
Star Trek comes out on Blu-Ray Tuesday,
