so i get to pick from a craptcular list of cr@p.

there are only a few things that interest me:

  • Bushnell "Deep Space" 525 x 3" reflector.Features include universal coding system for easy set up and usage and aluminum tripod

  • Sunbeam "Mix Master" stand mixer features a 275 watt motor, 12 speeds, head lock control, easy bowl adjustment and chrome plated beaters

  • Coleman PowerChill? thermoelectric cooler features an inside light, door shelf, auto thermostat, adjustable open door, and comes with a 110V adapter. Can be used horizontally or vertically. 21.75' x 15" x 17" tall.

  • Swiss Army Men's Watch. Men's "Peak" watch features a stainless steel case and bracelet, luminous hands and hour markers, date display, and is water resistant to 100 meters. Corporate logo engraved on watch back.

i've looked the list over several times and this is about it as for what i'd be interested in...

i was leaning towards telescope, too... i live a bit outside of town so the night is relatively clear and there's not many lights around.

Is it via bravanta? if so, it's probably the telescope that you can hook up to computer and just type in a star and the telescope will find it....it's WAY cool...but the watch is worth a pretty penny. Who is the company that does your rewards/recognition?

those are some nice awards. for my 5 year mark i got a coupon to pick any shirt i want from the company store, a tie pin with a sapphire, and a framed certificate with "5 years of meritorious service"

i would pick the telescope.

i had a swiss army watch that i really liked. too bad it got ruined when they crossthreaded the back on after replacing the battery and water got inside...

if its stylish and you need a watch, go for that, probably would get the most use out of that

no, me thinks it's a cheapy telescope.. runs about $80-100

as for the watch.. i already have a rolex submariner that i ALWAYS wear. i thought it would be nice to have a backup watch in case i'm in the hood and don't want to wear the Rolly

I got $100 (after tax) for my 5 year "loyalty bonus" (I think that's what they're calling it now).
