Ok, this is way off topic but i had to talk about it. I got a 300$ knife set on Amazon for $30, then i got a $400 pot and pan set for $60. My kitchen is all decked out and it cost me less than $200 for all this crazy stuff i got. They always have some insane crazy deals on there and if you search hard you can find good stuff. I did all my Xmas shopping online and saved at least a $1000. People who shop late are fools, they lose so much money shopping retail.
If you have an Xbox 360 then you should grab Scene IT, it comes with 4 controllers and costs about $60. It is a great game for family and friends but it is very boring when playing along. I have not had this much fun with a family game since Mario Party back on Gamecube.
They also released Viva Pinata Party for the 360.
If you are trying to save a bunch of money, Amazon is the way to go but you have to hurry up and shop so you can get your items shipped to you. If you are buying for kids they have a ton of toys for dirt cheap. I picked up a bunch of littlest pet shop toys for $4 and a bunch of cabbage patch kids for $3. This was a great find and i saved a lot of money for Xmas.
So i got the wife a painting from Europe for Xmas, well when i got it here it was on a canvas, i had to take it to get it framed and it cost a whopping $100, that was more than the painting. On top of that they said it could take up to a month to get it framed. I did not expect all this drama over a simple painting.
Ok, after waiting for about 4 months to finally find one i got a Nintendo Wii. So i got the bad boy, brought it home, played it like crazy on the first day, and i have not touched it since at all. Dunno if i am just too lazy to play or if i really found it that uninteresting. None the less i do not ever touch the game. I like bowling a lot and boxing, but in boxing for every 10 punches i throw only one makes it.
Ok, i know this is childish but i think it is cool. It is a dancing Bumblebee, you know transformers. You hook up an mp3 player to it and it dances with music. It also stores certain sounds from the music and will use it to talk like in the movie, it is pretty entertaiiing for the most part. I will never use it, it will just sit on top of the computer, but i dig it.
