GF's SHOPPERS ALERT THREAD!

**Genesisfactor** · 12-30-2005, 08:53 PM

This is how it works...or want it to work(if a moderator wants to sticky this, be my guest)

Background, after seeing the nice thing UkChris did with that website, i think it would be great if we had one thread for the latest in deals that we've seen and have people post them up as replies (non-vendors, ofcourse).

@ HOME DEPOT

So, after getting 3 strands of 25ft of heavily shielded 10 guage power cables for my subs for $4.06 (hehehehehe got an instant $33 markdown!), i came across a little section of interest

3 pack USB 2.0 cables- $9.99 ,1 red, 1 blue, 1 i forget, i liked those two colors

USB 1.1 mini hub - $9.99

Also, there were wireless optical mice at $19.99, notebook mice, optical wired mice with retractable cords, a nd a whole load of stuff. Most things were $10, many prices ranged from $5.99 to the 19.99 wireless mouse.

Its a decent deal if you don't want to wait for shipping, ESPECIALLY for those USB cables.

um, where would you purchase those things? link?

I think it's a good idea, would it be worth considering a forum or sub-forum though for hot deals to keep things workable? Just a thought as there's already an awful lot of traffic in the for sale forum.

i KNEW i forgot something...HOME DEPOT!!!! Updated the post

And as per sub forum, its up to the guys up there. On G20.net, some gusy started posting Paypal codes for discounts on all purchases, another thing i want to see done. Lots of people saved for the holiday season on that site

where you been?

THe point of this wasn't exactly to tell people online deals, but deals in the real world that they'd be interested. There are hundreds of deal sites out there. Hoever, at times, like when Circuit City was selling Infinity Subs 2 for 1 last week, retailers deals beat online. Plus, some sites have specail sales. If i told you that last week, you could get an moderate XM radio AND a car kit for free (ecost.com), how many of us would have jumped on that? There is worth in this thread man. Just cause you know one site doesn't make you the "grand poo-bah of bargin knowledge."
