I just wanna say stuff sux!

 

[lepper boy]

anyone ever hear back from equal footing about those digital camera's that was soooooo cheap?

 

[tommytom]

HOT DEAL!! Free baby socks!

Go to Amazon and order a Antec ks282 case and a watch battery. Use a $15 off coupon. After about a week they'll cancel your case order but your "battery" will be on the way. Now, open the box for your battery. There they are! Your free baby socks! No battery, even though that's what it says on the invoice. Grrrrr. Nope, I don't feel better now.

hahaha

gotta love amazon.

I'm still hoping my 32" tv won't break anytime soon after it was dropped twice onto concrete before it found its way to my apartment.

[ManSnake]

Has anyone received their Compaq rebates from the Staples deal back in September? I received my copy of free WinME (from Compaq), but still haven't received the $250 from Compaq nor the $100 from Staples. Just curious!!!

 

[randypj]

Compaq, 3Com, M$ft, IBM have always come thru with T-shirts, IME. They are the only ones I bother with anymore.

Is it my imagination, or are the deals simply not as HOT as this time last year, or, have I just bought all the toys I want?

If you do a deal through Gomez with a rebate (such as open a Datek account), you may have to bug them about it. First, they came back and said that Datek told them I had not funded an account. I had funded two. I'm still trying to figure out who is the lying %#@#%%.
