Looking over the sale ads while visiting Mom today, it looks like the thing to nut-up over this year is flat screen TeeVees.

As psychotic as everybody has gotten lately, I'm guessing people are going to be killing each other trying to get "their fair share" tomorrow.

Only deaths over TeeVees count. 12:00AM - 11:59PM Friday.

If the economy slows, as it now seems to be, the retailers will be begging people to take them off their hands by spring.

I believe that the panic-selling will begin well before Christmas...one of our local grocers was offering 27" LCD tv's for $199. this past week.

I found out the hard way that retailers use Christmas to dump a lot of poor quality junk on shoppers. In reality, you are overpaying for what you are getting. Best to avoid all the holiday shopping crap unless you have a pretty good idea of what you're buying.

Case in point, the $299 laptop I saw Best Buy pumping. It's pretty much the laptop I'm typing this post on...which I bought almost three years ago. Only now they are willing to throw in a $45 printer with it.

I was told last year that at the local best buy dozens of people spent thursday night on the sidewalk in front of the store to get one of those laptops. they opened at 6 am and the laptops were gone at 6:05. not everyone who spent the night got one. seems kid of pathetic, but I suppose if you really really need a laptop and only have 299.........

First, not everyone "needs" a laptop. I have one because I wanted one because it's more convenient for me to surf the net on my dot-com sofa.

By chance if someone does "need" a laptop and only has $299, then they need to be shopping on ebay. That's where I sold the laptop that this one replaced. You won't get trampled and you won't have to camp out in freezing weather to get one.

Then you probably don't need a laptop in the first place.

First, not everyone "needs" a laptop.

ok, I'm chastised. I should have said "wants" not "needs".

just trying to be a real american on thanksgiving....

you know, where see = want = need = borrow = buy = happiness!!!
