I scored a lightning deal on a new carseat for my son, a Britax. About $60 off regular price, and I was going to buy it anyway regardless of the black friday deal, so I will take it.

You can buy hdmi switches dirt cheap on ebay, Hands free and self powered, they switch automaticly to devices that have just turned on, and will fall back to an older connection when it switches off. Works great for my parents westinghouse with 1 hdmi.

Two 55" Samsung smart TV's. I'll use one of them as my new gaming TV to replace my 40". 15 more inches...:thumbsup: It's like getting a penis extension.

Nook HD 7" for $80. Couldn't resist. Will eventually turn it into a full-blown Android tablet and count myself lucky.

Bunch of Blu-rays; did not see much else that tickled me. Would have bought a PSN annual card at $30, but they do not work for Canadians.

So I bought for ~$180

Universal Classic Monsters: The Essential Collection
Casablanca 70th Anniversary Limited Collector's Edition
Deliverance 40th Anniversary Blu-ray book
Band of Brothers
Watchmen: Ultimate Collector's Edition

Fuck's sake. I assumed that would go live on Friday. I wanted a base air with the $100 GC.

Saw Walmart selling today in-store (although sold out, but didn't seem to be related to BF) ipad air for $449

Meh, I am all talk, such a weak person. I actually got to target today around 10:00 and it still had $100 deal and ipad airs in stock. I could pick one up for $200 after selling my ipad2, but realized it's just not necessary.

I got in on some 1 TB 3.0 hard drive on Amazon for $48 a couple hours ago. .5,1,2 TB Toshiba drives hit at the same instant and sold out instantly, except for the .5 which took around a minute to sell.

A terabyte for $48. Ridiculous.
Get a receiver! It'll be a switch and audio source at the sometime.
THIS. I got some Sony receiver for $150 a couple years back, all my HDMI units go into it. Love that.

Sadly, I didn't see anything I couldn't live without, so bought next to nothing. I did pick up a couple spindles of the Verbatim DVD+R blanks, for $15 per spindle of 100, from Newegg this morning.

Honestly, this BF was underwhelming......again. :\

I just picked up a 64GB mSD card at BB for $35 and then had Amazon give me an adjustment for the Assassins Creed 4 sale. Score!

I just got home with both a 60" (KDL60R550A) and a 70" (KDL70R550A) Sony TVs. The 60" was $900 and the 70" was $1500. They were good deals, but I spent the better part of the day trying to pick them up from Fry's.

Even though I ordered them online, I waited in line for near three hours. In fact, people who ordered online were punished as they had to wait through TWO lines and not just one. The first line was for them to pull your online order and hand it over to you (40 minutes) and the second line was for you to check out (2 hours). I hate Fry's so much.

With discounts got two office chairs @ Office Max for $170 (reg $300). Dog bed @ Petsmart for $35 (reg $70). New desk from Ashley Furniture for $208 (reg $498).

//The Ashley Furniture probably wasnt that great of a deal since I am sure they had an artificially high price as the regular price to begin with - the "real" price was probably closer to $300.

a Britax is a weird name for a kid. What's the story behind that name?
