I'm still waiting for a Dell monitor deal.

Same here, waiting for the perfect U2415 deal.

 

[balloonshark]

Same here, waiting for the perfect U2415 deal.

I don't know if that monitor will be on sale or not. Have you heard of any deals coming?

I believe the U2414H will be $200 sometime (maybe Monday) but it is already $160 AR at Adorama http://www.adorama.com/DEU2414H.html

I have a Dell $125 gift card though so I have to hold out. I should have sold the gift card for $100 and been done with them. Their customer service is horrible.

 

[Sonikku]

Actually got it a couple days ago, but in large part to early BF coupon code stacking.

 

[Gillbot]

A desktop gigabit switch for $9. Nothing else catches my eye.

Nothing that I've heard but I haven't really been paying attention as I don't really need another monitor.

Thanks for the Dell U2414H heads up but I have my eye on the U2415.

$9.99 Sandisk 32GB Ultra Plus SDHC card (Best Buy, in-store tonight)
$9.99 Sandisk 32GB Ultra Plus microSDHC card (Best Buy, in-store tonight)
$9.99 VZW PP Moto E ((Best Buy, online today)
$17 Oster 2-slice (metal) toaster (Target)
$35 Biddeford heated electric "throw" (Target, but misleading shelf tags made me think it was going to be $20, so it may well go back)
$99.99 Vizio SB3830-C6M soundbar (Best Buy, online today)
$199.99 Toshiba 40L310U (Best Buy, online last week)

$1.99-3.99 ea half-dozen BDs/DVDs/CD (Best Buy, in-store tonight)

And a bunch of clothes, of all things, all at Target, tonight:
$10-$12 ea 5 pairs Wranglers
$12 surprisingly nice flannel pajamas
$15 ea Couple cotton sweaters
$24 (also surprisingly nice) terrycloth robe
Couple of short-sleeve shirts, lounge pants, etc.


I only belatedly thought of/realized the price-matching thing for BF deals, or I probably would've done that for the 49" Toshiba just to save the $50, even though I don't really want a 49" instead of the 40"...

 

[RossMAN]

$12 surprisingly nice flannel pajamas

Do you have a brand name or item/SKU from the tag or receipt? Thanks.

 

[Mike64]

Do you have a brand name or item/SKU from the tag or receipt? Thanks.

The brand is "Merona" (which I gather is a Target house-brand), the SKU (from the receipt) is 044120111. It's not a heavy flannel and probably won't last forever, but it does seem like fairly well-made fabric for "inexpensive" PJs... (Fwiw, the robe is also "Merona", SKU is 044130136.)

 

[RossMAN]

As long as the PJ's last a good ~2 years I'm happy, thanks Mike!

 

[Mike64]

Just how long they'll last is hard for me to judge, since I don't wear full-blown pajamas very often. (I think the last set I bought was like 20 years ago from LL Bean, and those are still in great condition<lol>, but have only a drawstring waist which has always driven me slightly nuts...)

I nabbed one of those 64GB iPad 2 Air's on sale for $500. Staples was sold out of ones they had on sale for $450, so I went with Best Buy's $500 offer instead.

Sennheiser HD598 for $95 at Amazon

Picked up a 48" Sharp 1080P LED LC-48LE653U for 399.00 no tax, not the best deal I've ever gotten, but I'm happy with it, and didn't have to do any door buster deals. Just walked in and picked it up. Saw a few PS4 bundles that go on sale Saturday for 299.99 +$25 gift card, might snag one of those.

Plus 9.50 cash back for using my activated Chase freedom card.

I wish they gave the 10% back for the standard Amazon Visa card. Oh well, 3% back year round for Amazon can make up for it.

Magnolia TVs had something I've had my eye on for awhile now, and it was $1000 less than Amazon, so I pulled the trigger - LG 79UF7700.

$2999, no tax, free shipping. Hard hard deal to beat on a 79" 4K television.

I bought the tan color one for $99 at Amazon during last year Black Friday sale. I still haven't opened it.

Got one I wasn't expecting, an outdoor pizza oven. Not much of a BF steal since it's been on sale for awhile, but it's usually not a product available in-store, yet they had it at Home Depot when I was browsing through today, so it turned into an impulse buy Same price at Amazon, $169:

http://www.amazon.com/Pizzacraft-PizzaQue-PC6500-Outdoor-Pizza/dp/B00FYO368K/

Works awesome! Easily hit 700F. Used Todd English's dough recipe:

http://www.toddenglish.com/Recipes/Pizza/pizzadough_card.html

It's a bit of an odd duck because it uses propane for heat (not wood) & only makes 12" or 13" pizzas, but it does an excellent job at it. Super-fast 15 minute preheat time & 7 minutes per pizza (rotate once halfway through). Did 4 pizzas on it tonight, sooooo good, nice crispy crust. I'll post a separate thread if anyone is interested in one.

 

[Svnla]

Purchased about 10 DVDs (movies and toons) for $2/each at Walmart plus ExMachina (I missed it at the theather a while back) for $4.

A few batteries on sale ($6 for 36 pack) and a digital tire gauge ($4) at Lowes.

A LED flashlight for $15 and a 5 gallon bucket for $4 at Home Depot.

A pack of dress sock ($14 for 7) at Target.

I can't believe I did not get anything from Best Buy this year. Not a dime.

Was planning to get an Ipad Air 2 64GB Wifi only but did not get it yet, Sams was selling it for $150 off MSRP. Maybe Apple will lower the price in December.
