Hello~! How's everyone doin'? How's weather over there? Is it snowin' or is it tropical? How was Thanksgiving? Ate enough? Hope you guys didn't eat too much that, scare to get on the weight scale like I am. lol Does your family have some kind of tradition? Hope everyone is safe and sound on Black Friday. Hope no one got hurt (physically & the wallet).
As for me, I'm doin' pretty good physically... but my wallet took some damage. No, it didn't get stolen or lost. Just I have spent bit more then I wanted to. lol I only bought 2 item, but it cost me total of $700... Yeah, I finally bought LCD TV and that cost my the most. I bought 40" Samsung LN40B something something. I was debating to buy it online or at the local store. Why was I debating? Well you know, there's always pro & con on online & local. Online pro are don't need to pay for tax & don't need to worry bout how to bring it home. While con are website can be trusted or shipped broken. Local store pro is buy it, you have it right there right now & if broken return it quickly. While con is tax & how to bring it home... and list goes both side on and on... This time, I went to online. For few reason.
Reason 1 "Tax" - TV was on sale both online & local store for same price ($598). BUT local store will add tax to it, for this one tax was going to be $60-ish. While online was tax free, so I saved myself $60.
Reason 2 "Shipping" - Some of you know that my car is coupe and don't have much space. TV I bought is 40" and I know for sure that, that box would not fit in my car. Online had free shipping too, so I took that as advantage.
Reason 3 "Chance" - Chance of me getting the TV at the local store was slim. It wasn't impossible, but just 50/50 chance. While online was guaranteed to have it... so I had a choice of wait outside in freezing cold or stay home warm and buy it.
Anyways, I'll be expecting to receive the TV next week or so. I can't wait!
My friend wanted to go Black Friday shoppin'... From last yr's experience, it was slave who carried all the stuff for several hrs. Think of it as those anime guy chara that carrying a lots of stuff while chick buying more stuff... Yeah, I was that guy. Yes, I enjoy shoppin', but my philosophy is "buy many as you can carry." It's weird, but it's true. If you don't wanna carry all the stuff around and go shoppin' then don't buy em. Buy the stuff you really want, then it shouldn't be pain to carry. Of course furniture can be heavy, so I totally understand, but 6 jeans, 5 shirts, 3 jackets, & few dozen unknown stuff is bit heavy & overboard. Anyways, my friend and her sister called me this morning to go shoppin', but sadly I was takin' a "Shower", so I couldn't answer. lol I know they called me few times, but I seriously didn't see my phone til late night (just few hrs ago 9pm).
Next item I bought is EHD (External Hard Drive). My 1tb EHD only had 10gb of free space left, due to all the anime I have (over 330 series). Result, I bought another 1tb EHD. Now total I have 3 EHD (one 500gb & two 1tb). Now, I'm transferring M~Z anime title to new EHD... so 1tb hold A~L anime titles while other one hold M~Z animes. I bought this one for $65, so I'm really happy bout that... I just noticed and all 3 EHD is made by WD (Western Digital). It's not that I'm "only" buyin' WD, but it just happen to me WD.
Anyways, I think I wrote enough tonight. Hope everyone have good weekend.
