What are your plans for black friday and cyber monday? What are you buying? Do you know of any sweet deals online?

i want a ps3, but that seems like its not something that would go on sale really.

Saving my moneys for a Zacate netbook/notebook in January. Must not fall into the temptation that is cheap stuff.

My CRT(lolololol) tv thats 8 years old just broke, so I guess a tv :p

Ya, I would say just try on craigslist for one of those.

But buy it cheap then sell on ebay. My brother bought four 27 inch monitors last year and made a $100 profit on each one.

If I find a 25-28 inch monitor for under 200 i'll get it.

Walmart has a certain brand thats a 26" for 198.

Eh. 32" if its $50 more, is worth it. imo.

Only if it has very good resolution and a fast response time(3s or lower). But I'm using it for a computer so I don't really want it that big.

it's actually saturday the 13th where I live.

There talking about after Thankgiving. U know all the big sales on Friday.

Thats a pretty good idea … but by saving money what I really mean is I do not have a lot of disposable income at the moment :).

And "merchanting" (lol) one thing is probably more hassle then its worth. Would totally consider it if I had say like 2k.

sorry, but what is black Friday and cyber Monday?
I'm from the UK and have absolutely no idea what they are

After Thanksgiving which this year is Novemeber 25th, the Friday after Thankgiving they have all sorts of sales. These sales are called Black Friday. Alot of people wait in line in stores around 12 am, until the doors open at 5 or 6am.

Usually around 1000's of people are trying to fit through one door and everyone is running through every store trying to catch the best deals.

Cyber Monday is the monday after thanksgiving, and usually u can find Online deals really cheap.

why so lolololol? CRT's usually have better performance than the LCD's most of us have today.

We still have an old TV with a trinitron tube in it. It still very good.

My CRT monitor for my desktop can produce really deep blacks and really bright whites, the colors are so deep and rich i would never swap it for another monitor unless it was better, it is by far much better than my other monitors or tv's in the house

how much electricity does it use?

My Trinitron just broke, and lifting the 400 pound tv to try to fix it was not the funnest thing ever. It looked great, it just didn't support 1080p unless is was through dvi and with only 2 component inputs I had to switch cables all the time.

I am getting the most beautiful thing to me ever:

Gonna nail the bank a bit but I'm going to be using it for life for my hobby, so might as well :D
Extra string allows me to extend my arpeggio runs!

I'd like to find a really cheap laptop somewhere…..

Like the longboards, they should last a long time ;) Making it quite worth the investment
