Why not just get a Segway for something reasonable like this: Linky Better yet try a Megway like this: Megway Of course you almost have to get the Mop and broom attachments on your Megway, LOL. I love that site. Seth

I tried the internet and calling and asked them if they could ship or anything, Todd, the guy I talked to, said it was good for anyone with university ID and that the sale was good only for in-store purchases. The regular priced there is $369 and they couldn't ship to me in Utah for less than...

I second Mark W recommendation, I have 3 Components going into the "RCA" box and 1 going out to my home theater projector (Sony 10HT) for my 100" screen. The thing works perfectly with NO picture distortion and its only $20 as I recall. Its dang good. Radio Shack also has an Optical Audio...

I just did the "Save The Sale" thing for the last two in Idaho or Utah. Have a "good relationship" with the manager at my store and got two, both used with the $20 coupon and (hopefully) the rebate. Thanks for the deal! :D

I think I'll check out the Sony and the Radio Shack $20 on before this one. Many reviews say the poor backlight is just to much for users of this TC1000 model. Good thread though, lots of good info!

If the BUY IT NOW fee is more than about $0.10 there is no way I'm going to keep using it. Its convenient but I don't want to pay for it. It sounds like the 0.25% fee hike isn't so bad, but still sucks big time. That amounts to an extra $300 or so on ebay commissions based on my last year's...

Here is a more detailed story: Ebay makes a killing! The text of it says: SAN JOSE, Calif. -- EBay Inc. told users Thursday that it plans to raise fees for its online auction services and will begin charging for certain buying options. Shares of eBay gained $1.76 to $61.70 in midday trading...

This stinks! I'm used to the BUY IT NOW feature and HATE to think of paying more fees. At the same time its not like I can get as much for my stuff anywhere else. Ubid doens't have the ease of use and hasn't reached a critical mass of buyers. Amazon Z-shops and Half.com both charge 15%...

As to the WHY asked by flomokev, its a simple question of dimensions. I can buy an 6" x 10" envelope for about $0.11 each shipped that are good for 1 DVD each, or I can buy an 8" X 12" envelope for $0.16 each, and then cut it in half. By cutting an 8"X 12" in half I end up with 2 sides of the...

I'll have to get a picture up later today on how its done, but its simple really. On the normal envelope you have one end sealed and the other end with the strip you pull off to seal it, right? Well, seal the envelope (leave it empty) and then cut it in half. Now you have 2 envelopes that are...

<< ok, with shipping (quill is free, Bubblefast is around 9-12 bucks, depending on where you are) Bubblefast is still cheaper, by about 4 or 5 cents per envelope. (these are size fours, BTW) >> Now I'm confused... I looked at bubblefast.com and their #4 envelopes are $25.80 per box of 100...

I have eaten five at once before, but I admit I'm sucking down water the rest of the day and those burps about 3 hours later get pretty nasty!!:Q What about tacos? Anyone ever downed a dozen tacos before? I did over the course of 2 hours during one half of a college football game. I'll...

Where are the cookies? Use code QR8 for Free Mrs. Fields Cookies w/ $130 purchase (exp 1/25). I ship a bunch of stuff from CDs, DVDs, small electronic parts, ram, computer cards and other stuff. Thanks for the tip on the $0.05 each shipped for 9X12. If you have an 800# to contact them that...

I've seen many people looking for the best deal on CD/DVD and other small item type packaging material (bubble mailers and cardboard boxes). I've been looking myself and was shocked to find something for DVD packages for $0.08 each, shipped to me: Quill.com Buy One Get One Free on 9" X 12"...

<< [i]But no complaints here, free stuff is always good, especially when no string's attached! << [i] Very good find, I signed us up! But what do you mean no strings attached? Once you settle on a brand you're going to go through say a pound a week for around a year, thats 50 lbs of formula...
