Cheap, very cheap!

The best time to buy Christmas decorations is definitely in the days after the 25th. I was able to pick up a 7ft tree with all kinds of decorations for next to nothing. Of course being that I wouldn’t get to actually use the decorations until next year is a bit of a drag, so the old tree with de-decorated and disassembled. The new tree is now up and decorated, a few days of enjoyment will be nice before it gets packed up as well. I like to keep the tree past new years but after that I want to look forward to spring and warm weather.

Ive been attempting to locate a Nintendo Wii for a long, long time now with no luck. The big hold up is that there is an obvious demand out there and with limited numbers coming into stores they sell in the blink of an eye. However I have found out that the stores that get them in sell out before they hit the shelves, the staff are buying them up or lying about being sold out so that their friends can come and get one. Very lame in my opinion but what can I do? In this city the staff that are hired to work at Wal-Mart tend to be bottom of the barrel. However, this seems to be the case at any Wal-Mart I have been unfortunate enough to have to go to.

The new car is awesome, im really enjoying it a lot. The factory stereo has to go, but if my equipment from my old car doesn’t sell I get it back and will promptly have it installed. I am still getting used to the size of the vehicle, parking is fun because I expect to manuvre like I did in the focus out of habit. That will come though, man I just love to drive it. I want to right now…maybe I will after this post.

In final news I found out that a lottery ticket I purchased last Friday had 4 out of the 7 numbers match! $10 richer baby! Well I cashed it in and bought 2 more tickets, here's hoping for some big money. Daddy wants a new LCD 1080p TV!

That's how I just got my wii... :D

Should be here on Jan 8, 2007!!!

Futureshop online had 75 when I got the email and were sold out by the time I completed my order... 3 minutes later. If you're at the computer though, you can get one. I was lucky.
