Black Friday Deals @ Walmart.com - Legit?

I wonder how many people will understand the WMC meaning, or even have been a part of it. (I was involved, but didn't complain)

FYI for those w/MicroCenter near...2500K now $159.99

Looking at their website, I can still order the 2500K and the ASRock Pro4 Z77 and it knocks the price of the MB down to 59.99

philly 76er fans, what's your thoughts on the elton brand acquisition?

Brand just isn't a good fit for that offense. Kind of silly to be paying him 80 million over 5 years to come off the bench. Hopefully they trade him and he gets into a better offense for him.

YAWoWT: Anybody tried Onyxia since WoW patch 1.10?

At least they didn't screw with Molten Core. We ran into the same thing with Ony last night. Deep breathed us to death. Warped around, etc. We headed over to MC and cleared to Geddon without issues.

Anybody else get a 360-related call from Gamestop?

Interesting post by a guy on Evilavatar about the "shortages". He said, "He raises a point which I've thought of myself - how much of the shortage is down to individual stores over-estimating how many machines they would get on launch day. I've personally spoken with a few district managers who...

Fantasy basketball trade advice

I wouldn't do the trade. Like you said, you're really thin at Center and Gumby is a sure bet for an injury at some point. Also, Q is just not Larry Brown's type of player. Miles also had a monster first game and hopefully will decide to play this year. Combined with the fact that Webber is...

Interesting article I found on how to get good deals on TVs at Best Buy and Circuit City

Blah, blah, blah. Like everyone else says, you're rationalizing reasons why this isn't unethical. Some are going to agree, some aren't. If you're alright with it, do it. It's your own conscious that will make the decision and not what anyone else says. Do I personally find it shady and...

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That quote basically says you don't want them to screw you, so you won't screw them. It isn't justification for pulling some "return the items that led to the discount" scam.

How is that in any way related to the topic here? Maybe if you purchased a car after agreeing to stain guard, pin striping, upgraded rims, then tried to take it all back, it'd be a valid comparison.

You're getting a discount when you have no intention of purchasing the items that led to the discount. And you don't see anything wrong with that?

WTF? Joe Johnson to the Hawks

Dalembert already agreed to terms with the 76ers, so he's off the market. Chandler the bulls will match any offer for. Curry is a huge risk because the NBA's insurance company will not insure his contract with his heart problems. Pistons have said the Milicic rumors were totally false...

WTF? Joe Johnson to the Hawks

Johnson's not really worth that much money. Plus if the Suns had matched, they probably wouldn't be able to give Amare the max extension he'll want/deserve. At least this way they get some picks. The hot rumor is they don't mind it as much because once the Mavs use the amnesty clause on...

Zeta platform was already cancelled to concentrate on the new SUVs. www.ls1gto.com and other sites has more info. Basically it's thought it will be made, but there's no real info out there yet for after 2006. Holden also killed the Monaro to concentrate on the Commodore, so that's also made...

I think every copy comes with a 10 day pass for a friend to try it. Mine did. It's just a card with a key. You'd need to borrow that person's install disks.

Updated 11/19 - Seagate 200GB drive = $74.99 at Fry's or $69.99 @ Outpost

Mine was invalidated also. I got through to a CSR and all he found out was the same "Invalidated by Seagate" with no reasons. He said he'll escalate it and I should get a response in 7-10 days. So who knows what happened. Maybe just cancelled some hoping we wouldn't call.

Amazon $30 GC for new Credit Card Signup

Samp, when you chose to pay with the Amazon credit card the $30 GC should automatically appear. At least it did for me. Even before I received the card the details were added on Amazon and usable. As soon as I switched from my regular card to the Amazon card for payment, the GC showed up.

Khypermedia 25 PK DVD-R $19.99 AR's

I've used 25 of these without any problems burning at 1x on a Sony 500. I still wouldn't recommend them, though. Was the first DVDs I bought and the quality isn't that great. Plenty of better brands out there for near the price.

TDK 100-Pack 4x DVD+R Disc Spindle for $129.99 !!!

If you're using Nero, make sure you upgrade to at least 5.5.10.7 or higher. From their bug fixes report "Fixed the bug which produced incompatible Video-DVDs not playable on some DVD-players". I use 5.5.10.35 and have never had a problem.
