If you're pitching it as the best sale ever!! you can't just offer a few middling discounts that quickly sell out Right. it's not 1 walmart advertising a TV for $5 when they have 5 in stock and maybe a few thousand people will show up looking for it.

I clicked on add to cart within seconds of it going on sale and I am number 225 on the wait list One thing to be careful for the video baby monitors is they typically operate at the same frequency as your wifi network so some of them will jam the fock out of your wifi. We found that Motorola monitors did not do that nearly as much as another brand we tried Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,200 Posted July 16, 2015 Wasn't a total loss; ended up with this for $200: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R6Z4SEQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 Leaf blower with an 80 focking volt rechargeable battery$#@! I basically need to clean up leaves and debris every weekend, and dragging around a 100 ft extension cord plus ignoring farther sections of the yard really sucks. They've got a whole family of tools working at 80V; I'm feeling a yardscape orgasm coming on. http://www.greenworkstools.com/80v-pro/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They've got a whole family of tools working at 80V; I'm feeling a yardscape orgasm coming on. http://www.greenworkstools.com/80v-pro/ I thought about getting that, but I just bought a 16v Ryobi. It works great around the pool, cleaning gutters and walkways . You have an 80v. Much more powerful. No more mixing oil and gas. I think you made a great purchase. Wait till you clean the gutters.

No more mixing oil and gas. I think you made a great purchase. Wait till you clean the gutters. So easy. Thanks. I'm a huge Ryobi fan, in part because they have a major presence here in Phoenix. I know they don't have the "pro" rep like Dewalt, but their plug and play system is the shiznit! I've got the 18V One+ battery which retroactively fits into my Ryobi sawzall (undeniably my #1 useful overall tool), drill, etc. But man, I can't wait to see this 80V tool in action. They've got a chain saw as well which, if the leaf blower works well, is my next purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted April 19, 2018 delayed deliveries or something else? I wouldn't say delayed, but the days of "Next Day" are rapidly vanishing.

edjr 5,564 Posted April 19, 2018 for work and personal life, I use 2 day shipping. I order on average, 1 thing a week. I think they are solid. Then add in prime video and it's a steal at 99 per year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 5,564 Posted April 19, 2018 I was able to finally watch the Sopranos. Must say, based on the hype - was a bit underwhelmed. I've watched it 3 times through.

You have to understand this was really the first modern prestige tv program so its been improved on since Prolly a lot to this for sure. I was also really disappointed with the ending. In fact, the entire Season 6 kind of sucked.. From what I've read, many fans (at the time) were really put off with the ending as well..... I've read David Chase's explanations and all - but still, was a real let down, extremely weak ending for such an epic series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
