Good sales & deals (formerly BF thread)

[Edward64]

Sam's is selling a 85" for $800. Not really interested right now. No Sam's membership.

But this foreshadows BF. Have to believe there'll be more 85" options this year for around this budget price. Wouldn't mind picking up a 85" for the basement (while waiting for that 98").

First time in a long time where I've felt like upgrading my 2017 Model S. My car has unlimited supercharging and FSD which I would lose both of those perks if I upgraded. There is zero chance I would spend the $15,000 on FSD nowadays, but being able to transfer it from my old to the new is a big deal on top of these price cuts.

I'll probably keep my car for at least a couple more years, but I am actually tempted to go down that path now. Interest rates put a damper on a purchase as well.

[Edward64]

It's that time of year again. Anything special you guys are looking at?

My main target is a couple gym mirrors for the basement.

Also, a nice to have cheap, big screen 75/85" for basement/home gym. Currently have a pretty old 65" downstairs so not a must have.

Maybe pickup some 4k blu-rays for my collection.

I bought a pair of OTE headphones for travelling for about $75 off that will be my Christmas present.

Haven't played since the old days of Beyond Overlord, and Barbarossa. At this price I figured I'd give it a try.

Posted in the Steam thread but figured I'd put it here too, as it's time sensitive, for those that might miss it there.

I bought a laptop to play FOF9. My Surface Pro 7 is too small to see in my old age.

Make $900.

If you have $15,000 lying around in a traditional bank, making little interest; and have a $500 monthly direct deposit, you can make $900 in 3 months. Basically, Chase bank is offering $900 if you open a checking & savings account at the same time. You need to keep the $15k in savings for 3 months. Offer expires 4/17.

This seems specifically geared for me. I am in the process of moving from Wells Fargo to Capital One 360. We may take a side detour and use Chase Bank for 3 months, collect the $900, and then move to 360. Wife and I will split it 50-50 and it'll help buy my dive computer (or next laptop)!

We won't stay at Chase because their interest rates sucks like Wells Fargo. But can't beat $900 for 3 months and a little paperwork.

If you have a publix and register for their newsletter/website, they give you a free bar cake or their ice cream (maybe other stuff)

I was at Costco this morning.

There were numerous 85"+ TVs. I'm guessing it'll be the new standard soon, superseding the 65" and 75".

I was going to buy some more ribs but unfortunately it was a 20 min wait. So just got the rotisserie chicken instead.

[Thomkal]

any body have a good deal on small to medium sized floor mats for computer chairs on carpet? Mine finally cracked enough i had to get rid of it.

[Edward64]

Excited about the new Garmin Fenix 8 models coming out tomorrow. There is new scuba/dive functionality (which was only available in their dedicated diving model Mk3 series). I’m getting serious about scuba and need a backup that is an everyday wear also.

Garmin Fenix 8 video leak fuels excitement ahead of launch

For runners, some decent Garmin Forerunner sales right now. See slickdeals.net below

Unfortunately, prob around $1-$1.2k

Not going to get one this year, but I've noticed some OLEDs 75", 85" at around to $1,600 - $2,500. From what I've seen at Costco/BestBuy, OLEDs images are really, really great.

Anyone here have one? As good as I think they are?

Wish list for the family this year ...

1) Roomba or like. Probably 2, one for the basement also
2) Solar generator
3) Husqvarna Automower or like. I saw a lot of these in Norway, and I mean a lot. Everyone I spoke to was happy with theirs. Probably Spring, need to do more research

I have 4 OLED televisions and an OLED gaming monitor. Once you go black, you cannot go back

Any issues with burn in?

I've read contradictory things, not sure what to believe?

[sovereignstar v2]

Burn in is largely a thing of the past due to advancements in the tech. A gaming monitor will probably end up with burn in eventually if you don't take certain measures (black background, hide taskbar), but as long as your content is varied (no talking heads all day) it will take a long time before it's an issue on a newer television.

Best Buy as a 97 inch one on sale right now for only $25 thousand dollars. What a bargain!

[Kodos]

I'm holding out for 100 inches. 97 inches sounds puny!

[thesloppy]

My cousin has a 77" OLED and it looks great, but hard to imagine how you could need/fit anything larger through the door.

[RainMaker]

Are the lower priced OLED TVs close to the higher priced ones? I saw some fairly cheap and didn't know if it was "fake OLED" or something. I know jack squat about TVs.


This is the one I was looking at.

According to that, that is a pretty good deal.

+1. This is my go-to site for ratings, especially for tv info. I would love to upgrade to a 65" OLED but last I read burn-in is still a problem. Any real world opinions from those who own a good OLED tv?
