I'm on the south side and pretty close to the airport. This weekend I work Saturday 10AM to ~9:45PM but I am off Sunday. Which day in particular?

He's saying that he needs to have the orders delivered somewhere. I think he's looking for a home delivery shopping service that goes where you want in the city instead of ordering from online shops.
exactly. :)
i am sure with limited time no one will bother shopping for my stuff. they are not ito pc gaming etc. so, i am basically worried about that.
if any of you have any friend near the airport and who has no problems holding onto a couple of pc parts then pls let me know. one of my friends will visit or meet up and collect the stuff. i can order online and get it delivered.

Living 15 minutes south of the airport makes Fry's a bit out of reach for regular visits. I'd take this as an excuse to go for myself too but I Sunday is also my next day off and that might be too late.

Edit:
Ichinisan and I are always looking for an excuse to hit up to Chipotle. There is one near Fry's, so perhaps we could tag-team this. :)

that's so nice of you mate. but i think it won't be necessary after all.
word in the office is that there is a problem at the client site and my colleagues might have to stay back longer. :\ i will PM you if anything changes favorably(for me ;))

Well, just let me know if I can be of any help. My bosses deliberately randomize my schedule so if it gets delayed let me know when and I'll check to see if I am available. :)

Double hashbrowns, smothered, covered.

If you don't like greasy food or it doesn't agree with you skip WoHo and Varsity and head to Bones Resturant. Be prepared to fork out $$$.

I believe Atlanta has multiple of the following: HHgreg, Brandsmart, Microcenter, and Frys. That should cover you for electronics. The Mall of Georgia is also only about 30mins outside of town depending on which side of the city you are on.

No need to drive out all the way to the suburbs to go to the Mall of Georgia, if you want to go shopping, you go to Lenox Mall and Phipps Plaza. The new Buckhead Atlanta development is also near there with high end stores like Hermes.
