What I want for the Holidays - 2015 Edition
 
In no particular order, I'm planning to buy

1. Fallout 4
2. 55-65+ inch 4k TV for $2,500 or so. Currently looking OLED models but lowest at BB is around $3,000. Hoping for a great sale.

Nice to have

3. Work backpack. Currently looking at Amazon.com: Tumi Alpha Bravo Knox Backpack, Anthracite, One Size: Clothing
4. i7 + motherboard combination (to replace an i3 custom that I put together in circa 2011). Possibly a i5 or i7 desktop if the deals are really good.
5. Video cards. I think I'm good with my video cards from a couple years ago in my i3 & i5 desktops but there always seem to be good sales on current generation so I'll have to compare $ with the performance upgrade.

I spend more than $20 on a backpack and I feel like I'm getting ripped off. :lol:

I'm just asking for some new pants and shirts. Just picked up a moto 360 for cheap, so I got myself an early present.

Also to lose 8.1 more pounds to reach my goal of getting to 165 by Christmas.

Suicane75 10-30-2015 12:51 PM

Baby, all I want for Christmas is you.

NobodyHere 10-30-2015 12:59 PM

A college degree
A new job
And a new place to live.

Yeah, I know. A guilty pleasure thinking that I should shell out that much.

I recommend checking Timbuk2 for a laptop bag. I've paid too much money for many different bags and this one is an order of magnitude better than all of them. I have a Command Messenger bag.

Women get Coach and Michael Kors for that much, why can't we be spoiled too?

CU Tiger 10-31-2015 01:56 PM

I've got an orvis laptop bag that is 10 years old?
Cost close $400 I about fainted when my wife told me. But its very nice and still looks new

I would like to get rid of all the things I felt I really wanted in past holiday seasons. Anyone who wants a 190-pound 32-inch CRT and is willing to haul it out of here... contact me.

That only thing that pops in my head is stuff for the kids. I'm such a mom :rolleyes: But for me, only 1 thing - binoculars.

Stop looking in my window!!

I might break down and buy a low end flat screen TV since I'm in the process of getting some new furniture. Other than that, all I want is to be left alone.

Radii 11-01-2015 10:06 PM

I just got some money for my birthday and couldn't figure out what to spend it on, 90% of it went into savings. So I guess for the rest of the holidays, nothing!

EagleFan 11-01-2015 10:33 PM

May need a new laptop. That would be the only thing, if needed.

Did buy Fallout 4. Son's having a great time with it.

I also decided to go with a Dell i7 which I thought was a pretty good deal. Lucked into ordering it before it expired. http://slickdeals.net/f/8276693-dell...c=SiteSearchV2

Looking at this 70 inch but haven't decided yet. http://slickdeals.net/f/8279563-vizi...c=SiteSearchV2

(If you're looking for a particular item/sale and don't know about slickdeals yet, you should check it out)
