I just got my Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Limited Edition (PS2) and The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, from a CAG, in the mail.

I had no idea the Marc Ecko's LE was so damn massive / heavy. Comes with some cool stuff, too.

Also, I'm doomed again this year: I can't Christmas shop 'til Friday. ( Won't have any spending cash 'til then. ) :cry:
 
I am basically doing the gift card thing as well. Going to go to dillards and get one for my mom, cash for both my sisters, and a home depot gift card for my dad.

Since everyone aside from my dad has their birthday around Christmas I am just combining birthday and christmas. I didn't get my dad anything for his birthday since he never said anything he needed, so I got him a quilted flannel shirt to make up for it.
 
Who is paying $500 for these Bose Wave Radios? Now I see they are hawking a 3 disc changer that works with it for $250.

These can't be worth that much money, right?
 
Hah... the remaining cookies I ordered early-November from Amazon just arrived.

I'm short one box. Amazon strikes again!

That may not sound like much, but it's 200 cookies!
 
I haven't even started Christmas shopping. Good thing I need one children's toy and a bottle of vodka. Yeah thats right, those are the only two things on my Christmas list and they are about as close to complete opposite as it gets.

funniest youtube sketch I've seen in a while

where did that youtube thread go?[/QUOTE]

This would have been alot funnier if the two guys weren't obnoxiously gay... or just plain obnoxious.

The one guy was hanging all over the other guy the entire time.

Ha, you know, i sent that video to the GF yesterday, and the first thing she said was
"can you get me some gay friends for christmas?"

I didn't think they were gay, I thought they were playing it up for "comedy"
The actual comedy is in the way he looks at the camera. Dead on.

It was obnoxious and totally killed it for me... David Blaine though was dead on, even sounded like him too.
 
[quote name='wubb']They are buy.com deals using Google Checkout. The rebates are still active, it's just a matter of if they restock them or not.[/quote]
Could I bother you to throw up some links? Thanks.

[quote name='DT778']i want to get spongebob season 1 for my brother from ddd but I dont want to pay $10 to get 2nd day shipping that I would need to get it before xmas.[/quote]

I dropped quadruple that to get my mom's cookie press here. But what can you do. It's Christmas.
 
[quote name='XchikaXchikaX']I went to a UPS Store, and for only about $2 more than it would've cost me at the post office, I had no line, no obnoxious gov't employees and speedier delivery.[/quote]

Well, surprisingly, the line only took about 10 minutes, but then the stupid clerk got an attitude, so it took a little longer.

[quote name='Strell']Woot, about 5 panels left to do for this comic.[/QUOTE]

Speaking of comics I've been thinking about making a Cagcast flash for that contest, but it's been a good 2 years or so since my flash making days, so I might be rusty.

I believe they are all OOS right now.

Search for 'creative zen nano plus 1gb' on buy.com's main page and it will show you the list.

Anything $70 there would get you the $30 price AR and GCO. Buy's search is pretty crappy but if you mouse over the item it pops up with the status.
 
My mom calls me today. Wants to know if I want to Drive/ride with her best friend to pick up her husband in Piedras Negra, Mexico. He is a legal resident of this country he is in Mexico visiting family for Xmas.

Anyway, I was like sure I would love to go see the country. When is she going after news years? "No in about 4 hours."

The fuck, 4 hours! I need a passport, money, clothes, a cell phone charger, shots, medicine, idoine, water purifying tablets etc. I just can't go to Mexico you have to prepare for that.

"She said you'll be back for Xmas."

Xmas isn't the problem mom.

I've seen way to many road trip movies from the 80's to know that it won't be a straight drive and back. However I told her friend that if she were to go again. I would like to go I just need to know ahead of time.But I can't go this time.

Hmm. Everything I find gives me fifty AR. I'm assuming this Google Checkout of which you speak subtracts another twenty?

edit: And yep, all OOS. I signed up for an alert when it comes back though.

I dropped quadruple that to get my mom's cookie press here. But what can you do. It's Christmas.[/quote]thats awesome of you. I just found my solution. Bestbuy has it for $35. Which would be the same as getting it from ddd with the 2nd day shipping.

My mom is hella hard to get gifts for so I talked to her and told her to tell me what 2 things (her birthday is on the 23rd) she needed or wanted for me to get her. Hopefully she tells me by tonight so I can go tomorrow morning and get them.
 
So the orthopedic surgeon said that i have a herniated disk. apparently, i have to get an MRI so they can tell how bad it really is.

In-store order them now, so you'll have them waiting for you when you go there tomorrow.

Plus, you get double RZ points on DVD purchases right now, so bonus for in-store pickup.

dude, first off, you don't need a passport yet, just a drivers license, maybe birth certificate. they have ATM's in mexico. shots? only if you're in guerrero, oxaca or farther south. water purifying tablets? please. drink beer or tequila, it's safer. i *moved* to mexico with 8 days notice.
 
Two of the best Simpsons episodes were on today. The one where Milhouse, Bart, and Martin buy Radioactive man and the one where Milhouse gets a girlfriend.

Mine too. However it worked out well for me this year- she went to buy a cookie press to make cookies this year couldn't find it all over told. She was pretty bummed out, but it gave me a great christmas gift to buy her.

That and one of those Ove Glove oven mitts- hers suck. She burns herself. :lol:

Edit: After dealing with TRU and other stores having boxes for Wiis and DS Lites with none in stock, I can totally relate.[/QUOTE]

DUDE I FELL FOR THAT SHIT AT CIRCUIT CITY YESTERDAY.

Like three Wii boxes sitting there in the Wii section with a tag that said "$249.99" and I was like "OH SHIT WII'S HOW DID NO ONE KNOW!!!" and I went to pick up the box I almost fell over since it was just a display box and not heavy at all. I threw at all the empty Wii boxes and walked away.

The double-points thing ends on the 24th, though one thing is that the RZ card will get you is 12% off a single item coupons they have from time to time, instead of 10%. Worth a buck here or there.

What pisses me off is that I paid for that shit once upon a time.

Now you can sign up free and as long as you make one purchase a year, the card stays renewed.

Oh well. Still worth it.

Yea but back then you got a 5 dollar gift card for every 125 dollars spent. Now it is 250.
 
If anyone wants to play some gears of war tomorrow, hit me up if you see me on live. Don't care if it is for co-op or deathmatch.

Also got to say that the game seems to get easier as you get used to it. Insane seems a heck of a lot easier than hardcore did, but I think that is more due to playing so much Gears in the past few days.

Did you add glitter and hit a magazine rack on your way out?

In other news, I just did an hour of shoulders and I'm typoing at the Y. Now I gotta run to Acme and pick upp some snapple. Then hit the field on my way back for an hour of cardio.
