What was the best crap you bought this weekend?

[YellowRubberDuckie]

We found 800 thread count sheet separates for 20 bucks. And then we also found a Down Alternate feather bed for 30. My bed is heaven now. What did you get?!

1. Bath and Body Works...

Went to the Paramus Mall in dirrrty jerz and I got a splendid Magnolia Bloosom perfume for only 18 :)

I haven't bought anything nice for me since summer, so this was a nice treat :)

[Left Is Write]

2. We bought a TV to replace one that had bitten the dust.

We also bought scooters for the kids ($18 each) at Target.

[Maddy McCall]

3. Well, I got two portable DVD players - $69 each...

and last weekend, I got the Nintendo Wii and all the accessories we wanted for retail price.

Had to wait in line before the store opened for an hour for the DVD players. Had to wait in line for the Wii for....I'm embarrassed to say how long. Glad I did, though, because the Wii has ended up being more in demand than the PS3.

Did you shop at Belk? I wish I would have made it by there.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

4. We don't have one here.

I went to Target and Garden Ridge.

5. Maybe it was the Target circular where I saw the sheets.

They had the down alt bed at Belk here. I bet I saw the sheets in the Target ad.

800 thread count. Niiiice.

[WindRavenX]

6. My SO is getting a Wii and he gets a discount

Sometimes, working retail has benefits :)

[Maddy McCall]

10. Good for him.

They're selling for three times retail on Ebay right now.

If the fuckers wouldn't buy them to resale, then gamers could buy them for retail. Most of the people standing in line to buy game consoles are Ebay sellers.

:grr:

I'm not a huge gamer, but I'm really looking forward to playing with the Wii on Christmas morning.

Did your guy get Zelda? That's the game I like. Got Trauma Center, too, so that we can do surgery. :D

[WindRavenX]

11. I'm getting him (actually, both of us) Zelda

Good for him? Hell, good for ME-- I'm just as big as a dork as he is :D He's getting me FFXII.

I really wish there was a way to just sell the Wii to ONLY people who are actually going to play it :(

[Catshrink]

7. Totally cute pair of sneakers

olive drab canvas, lightly quilted, only $12 at the Easy Spirit outlet store. My sister's gonna love 'em! And that's the only thing I bought this weekend, except for cat/dog food and a tank of gas.

[LeftyMom]

8. A corset with straps for my thigh-highs and matching thong

I have a hard time finding such things to fit or in colors that flatter me. Finding something that met both criteria at a good price made my night.

Oh, and I got some more of the old-fashioned hose with the seam up the back, because I think they're the sexiest thing ever.

[MountainLaurel]

20. Damn, that sounds hot

And I'm a straight woman.

:hi:

[LeftyMom]

29. It is, if I do say so myself.

It's black with a little bit of pink stitching on it. I look really, really good in black.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

33. Perfect for when flvegan finally gets to cali, huh?

:evilgrin:

[LeftyMom]

39. That and I always give him pics.

Pics and homemade cookies. It's tradition, but this year he's getting a shirt too, just because I found one he'll love and it's from an organization he supports so he can't complain about me spending money on him (since he always tells me not to.)

The coolest shirt EVAR: http://store.estreet.com/seashepherd/Detail.bok?no=9

[mainegreen]

9. 15 amp fuses.

The only thing I bought.

[Kajsa]

12. I got the last two SD Memory cards for

our digital cameras ( 512 mb) for $14.00 each.
The regular price was $49.00 a piece.

Then my SO and I headed to the Long Beach Convention Center where
National Geographic held its warehouse sale. The last one they had there was ten years ago.

I bought books, a new atlas, calenders, books and more books.
Some of them were $2.00! We went nuts and had seven large bags
between the two of us when we were finished.

Everyone on my list is getting a great book!

[Fuzz]

13. Dinner, Friday night

Was yummy. ;)

[Generic Brad]

14. Not one thing

I was working the last two days. Who has time to shop?

[tinfoil tiaras]

15. A $32 shirt with a peace sign

Haha. My mom got so mad at me because I spent all of her $60 she gave me on black friday....:rofl:

[JVS]

16. I haven't bought a thing since thursday

I have plenty of leftovers and no immediate needs.

[Pale Blue Dot]

17. I was selling it to you people.

And silently hating each and every one of you.

:D

[YellowRubberDuckie]

34. Hey, please don't hate me.

We are extremely nice to people. We've even bitched out people who were rude to the people like yourself. It's unnecessary and people need to get the fuck over themselves.
Duckie

[u4ic]

18. A storage shelf for half price

Exciting stuff...:silly:

[femmocrat]

19. Hershey's new kisses-- dark chocolate truffle! Yummy!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

35. The new Dark Chocolate M&Ms are fantastic.

Just FYI! :evilgrin:

[kedrys]

21. A $20 DVI adapter for the s.o.'s Mac Book Pro

So now we can watch all those verdammt downloaded Firefly and Stargate episodes on the big TV screen instead of on the laptop. :P

[tinfoilinfor2005]

22. I run a resort, so I took advantage of the sales at Brandsmart

and got a bunch of toasters for four bucks each and a bunch of those coffee maker stations that dispense the coffee right to the cup (we are constantly battling with broken glass pots, so we're going to try these for a change) for ten bucks each. Sweet deals, but I did have to walk half a mile to the store from parking blocks away, and stood in the checkout line for an hour and a half. Besides that, I had to drive to Miami from the Keys for the bargains. But the resort bought my gas and a nice semi expensive lunch, and I love to shop, so it wasn't too bad. But my husband would rather eat ground glass than go up to the mainland, let alone shopping on black Friday! :)

[RevCheesehead]

23. Best quality? I nominate two:

"An Inconvenient Truth" DVD
a 400-ct. sheet set for $39.

Favorite purchase: Ingredients for tomorrow's Sunday dinner with Dad. We're having pot roast, with all the usual stuff. Dinner with Dad: priceless.

[deadparrot]

24. $4 DVDs from Target...

Two Harry Potters (Prisoner of Azkaban and Goblet of Fire), the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Memoirs of a Geisha.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

37. The first three are incredible movies.

I love Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I can watch it over and over again.
Duckie

[S n o w b a l l]

25. A pecan pie

Best crap I ever tasted! :)

[Skittles]

26. sorry, I would pay extra to avoid the TG weekend crowd

absolutely I would

[bicentennial_baby]

27. Nothing, 'cause I'm broke...

:shrug:

[Telly Savalas]

28. We got a cheesy tray at the Niagra Falls giftshop for $3

It rocks!

[ContraBass Black]

30. 2GB RAM

To move me from .5 to 2.5.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

31. Damn! That's a great deal!

I didn't buy anything this weekend.

I had a terrific bowl of Vietnamese pho chicken noodle soup, though!

[bif]

32. Beer! 28 pack of Molson at Costco for $16.99!

Yeay!

[Deja Q]

36. A replacement leather coat, and a keyboard

[YellowRubberDuckie]

38. Wireless keyboard or regular?

Have you seen the new natural wireless black keyboards?
Duckie

[Deja Q]

40. Wireless Keyboard Laser 6000 (style A, silver)

It might be the immediate predecessor of the model you are referring to.

The mouse is awesome - best ergnomic feel and is sensitive. Great for graphics work...

The keyboard is a bit lax with the CTRL key and the placement of some of the keys is weird. I'm not used to it. (again, it's ergonomic and not straight across...)

I might exchange it for the rev B model (which has a couple ergonomic enhancements but otherwise has the same angled layout) if I can't tweak it... or buy the mouse and their weird ergo keyboard as separate entities (plus get a PS2 adapter, I won't use USB for keyboard and mouse connections.)

[YellowRubberDuckie]

41. Sounds awesome.

[Darth_Kitten]

42. Two nice sweaters, 2 for 1.........40 bucks

I need to get them hemmed though. :) but they are very nice, kind of like chenille. :)

[undeterred]

43. A flapper valve to fix my toilet and stop it from running

Well, you said crap.

[trof]

44. Quart of potato salad from L.A.* Barbecue.

It's THE BEST!
Got bacon in it.
yum


*Lower Alabama

[YellowRubberDuckie]

45. Yeah, because you're probably not going to find decent BBQ

in Los Angeles. Thanks for the footnote. :hi:
