Post your deals and pickups here

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #1 on:** November 28, 2013, 10:42:30 PM »

I can never seem to find any real worthwhile 'deals'. For as much attention this shit has been getting, they really have been slacking. Where's my ultra cheap as shit TVs and electronics? Waste of time.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #2 on:** November 28, 2013, 10:43:42 PM »

All the deals seem worse this year. I'm looking to buy a new high quality basketball but only the crappy balls are on sale.

Last year, several chains have all balls at 50% off including the official NBA ball.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #3 on:** November 28, 2013, 10:48:16 PM »

Pacific Rim BD is gonna be a lightning deal on Amazon at like 1:20am. I'll probs get that

Two things that I was looking for:

Dell Venue Pro 8 (I know it was on sale earlier this week, missed it).
Wii U

But I doubt any decent deals for these will occur.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #4 on:** November 28, 2013, 10:50:53 PM »

What kind of TV were you looking to get?

There seem to be a bunch of deals if you're looking for smaller than 50" or even lower-end 50"

Not really looking for a TV per se. I'm just saying that the deals they DO have are all lame and boring. I thought the point of this was someone looks and is like "ohhhh fuuu crazy price!! how can i not buy?" I'm not getting that.

Costco has Dell Venue 8 Pro for $50 off,

You need to be a Costco member or something? Which costs money?

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #8 on:** November 28, 2013, 11:00:54 PM »

Amazon had a pretty sick Receiver earlier. I probably should have got that... but I didnt because I don't have speakers to go with it.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #9 on:** November 28, 2013, 11:04:30 PM »

You could get a refund for Costco membership easily.

They're not gonna make you return stuff that you bought.

Zelda 3DS XL bundle at Target, the only thing I bought brick and mortar

Nook HD
The Last of US
Ratchet and Clank Collection
Super Mario 3D Land
Dollhouse Season 1 and 2 on BluRay
Cabin in the Woods on BluRay

Pretty good haul, but it does seem like the deals aren't as good this year

is playstation charging for multiplayer now? what gives?

Beezy · « **Reply #15 on:** November 28, 2013, 11:46:44 PM »

No, I just want the free monthly games really. I think $22-$30 is a good price that.

Edit: I've also been thinking about picking up Rocksmith PS3 while it's on sale on amazon for a few more hours and a cheapish Fender Strat+amp, but I think I'm gonna end up passing on both.

demi · « **Reply #16 on:** November 28, 2013, 11:53:43 PM »

Yes, they are charging for multiplayer on PS4. You need PS+ otherwise, it's just an extra service for Vita/PS3.

Never heard of this brand but 55" 4K for $850 seems outrageous

If you just want a small tablet for cruising the internet and reading, that 7" Nook HD for $79 is a good deal. Really nice 1440x900 res screen, Bluetooth, microSD slot.

Skyfall for hubs and I (and a second copy for my dad). BF for hubs. On PC too, so I can hog the big TV and main PS3.

- 120 kingston ssd
- 16gb moto g (not a bf deal but ordered for an early christmas present instead of a nexus 5)

pretty good haul so far. only had to go out for the zelda bundle. woke up at 2:45 because i rarely sleep anyway. drank a cup of coffee and ran down to target. no standing in line bullshit - just walked in and out in less than 5. my daughter is a huge zelda fan and getting this, along with the hyrule historia book is going to make her christmas.

i got battlefield 4 for $20 to sate my multiplayer fps craving. unfortunately the game is a pos and wont even boot up no matter how hard i try. this is why i stick to pirating. hopefully i can get my money back.

Debating getting that Amazon Vita special... 33% off, comes with Walking Dead, Uncharted, Sly, and Retro City Rampage. No real interest in any of those games aside from Retro City but I've been meaning to pick a Vita up now that Ys is out.

Get PS+ with your Vita... it is a necessity. Especially at $30 today.

Got four of the $230 50 inch tvs from Target. Pacific Rim, Argo, The Hobbit, Batman Begins and TDKR on BRD. My wife got some boots, and some toys. The blu rays and the boots are the only things we got for ourselves so I hope our friends and family have a merry Christmas. 28 hours in ~30 degree weather. Woot woot?

$130 is a rip. You might as well spend $60 more for a new system, extra controller and several games.

XBLA was having a sale yesterday. Nothing insane, but I did get the Motocross Madness for $2.5 and Ron Gilbert Starring in DoubleFine's The Cave for ~$3.5.

There is a bunch of stuff on there, but a lot of it is second-chances at deals we've seen recently.
