I purchased my home for 170K in 2008 with only 2.75% down (30 yr) and it's worth about 149k right now. My interest rate is 6.25 and even though I'm under by about 10k, my bank is letting me refinance with a steamline FHA at 4%. We plan on living here at least another 3 years, well past the...
Time to renew my contract and I'm also comparing the Maxx and Nexus. I keep going back and forth after reading reviews and watching videos. The Maxx just seems to have better call quality and reception (which people tend to forget is most important in a phone), amazing battery life (which is...
Also just to add, Frys has the Polk RTi8 speakers for $150 each right now. They are normally $200 or so a piece.
These are the heavy floor speakers with actual wooden cabinets. And they WILL ship these.

And if you're looking for a good Polk sub, the...
Are you getting a message saying it's unavailable for shipping? I plugged my address in, selected GROUND UPS and it put it through with no problem.
EDIT: Nevermind, they must have just updated this. Sorry to hear you didn't get it in time. I will update the thread for B&M now.
Here is my...
Frys has this incredible receiver for under $300 today. I had to pay tax in GA and ground shipping was $13 but you can go for in-store pickup if a Frys is in your area. This is a very popular AVR right now with a lot of bells and whistles and usually costs $375-$400 so this is a nice deal...
I have a Zino HD Inspiron 400 with ATI Radeon HD3200 video card and have it hooked up HDMI to a 46" Samsung LED tv (LH46DLPLGA/ZA) . I have installed the latest Catalyst package w/ all of the features enabled. Max resolution on the card is 1920x1080 (supported by the TV). The issue I am...
Thanks for that link. I actually just got off the phone with DirecTV and finally found a guy willing to help me out. He is getting me 24 months of free HD and upgrading us to another HD receiver free also, in addition to upgrading my package and taking an anotherl $10 off the premium - a 2...
I'll be persistent and keep on calling this week until I get it done. If they truly are not willing to negotiate, then I will most likely go ahead and make the switch to Comcast. I called up Comcast today and they already gave me a discount on internet just for asking - from $57.95 to $29.99...
I have had DirecTV going on 5 years now. Our contract has long expired and we are going to be upgrading our bedroom TV to a HDTV so I figured I would call to see what kind of deal we can get. I hear all the time about people getting free HD for 2 years and/or free HD receiver upgrades. While...
Interesting... I just went through a quote w/ State Farm and it came out to $1,000/yr for the same coverage that I have w/ Allstate currently. I'm assuming the online rate quotes are not very accurate? Because that's double what I was originally paying w/ Allstate.
Thanks for the replies guys. I guess I never realized insurance was a 'game' because I've had my car insurance w/ the same company for 10 years now and it's never gone up once. As a matter of fact, after I added my wife to the plan it even went down. Now we're paying $116.50 for full coverage...
My wife and I just purchased our first home in Aug 2008 so we're still a little new to things.... please go easy on me here, as I'm just looking for opinions/advice. We received our property tax bill and it was around $1500. We have around $1200 in our escrow right now that will go towards the...
Just a song my Mother put together in memory of the times spent with her. My Grandmother passed away around this time last year from complications of COPD.

This is not a discussion for religion, etc. I just wanted to share the song as I'm very...
Bought this camera and honestly I prefer it over my Pentax K100d. On auto, it snaps a much better picture.... especially in low lighting condtions. I also love the miniature mode even though it has some small flaws. The kit lens is pretty good, although I'll be picking up the 55-200mm to...
When the first adjustor came out, he actually said they'd only cover the internal damage through the claim - it was filed as rain damage, but I had them check for hail spots.
This is not a frivolous claim on my part however... this is leading to a big problem if not taken care of immediately...
Cragislist is rarely worth the hassle to me. 9/10 times I have someone give me an offer through email or on the phone and I accept. Then when they show up, they proceed to nickle and dime me to death. Now all of my prices are firm and if they show up w/ an offer even $1 less I'll turn them...
Yes, I've been in the attic but it's a very steep pitch on the roof and the water is collecting in a cavity that even my cat could not fit into. I'm curious to see how they will tackle this job actually. I'm also worried about mold, considering that this problem could have been going on for a...
It could very well be. The major leak is coming from the flashing and building up water in the corner of our living room ceiling. We have to have the drywall replaced and everything repainted inside. It's quite the job. Funny how our neighbors have NO leaks whatsoever... but because they...
Yes, we had a home inspection from a reputable inspector. The seller never said there was any problems with the roof at all, but I have proof in writing that a claim was filed on the roof for hail damage in 2006. One of the previous owners just left me a voicemail... finally, after 2 weeks...
Exactly what I was thinking... or.... I also noticed that in her email signature (previous owner) it says she works for ******** Construction Group as Senior Admin Assistant.
Maybe they had someone within her company work on it dirt cheap and she doesn't want to get them involved w/ the hassle.
Did you play VS online? It's a completely different game every time you play it. After the first week of play I didn't know if I was going to like it... but after a couple weeks I was hooked. I love pissing people off w/ the Boomer by sneaking in barfing and running my fat ass off to get away...
LOL, no one is going to buy it? You're out of your mind.
Boycott all you want Steam fanboys, I'm buying it the day its released b/c it's WORTH the money.
I spent $60 on the first one and my wife and I have played it 5x a week minimum for a full YEAR. Eat that for replay value. All of...
I've never been remotely interested in Twitter. Myspace is fail, except for looking up your favorite bands... Facebook is now overloaded w/ crap as well. Facebook lite is the only thing I really look at.
What is all this tweet nonsense from athletes? I know they all think they're so...
I got the same thing in the mail yesterday... my wife claims it's a big deal, but it's no big deal to me when I have to shell out that much cashola just to be a member. I don't care if I get a free hooker for every time I swipe it.
Scissors and a trash can did me the favor.
