What bargins will you be looking for this holiday season. Are you going to buy electronics like a flat screen tv, apparel or even a new car. I hear stores will really be cutting prices to get people shop.

There is nothing worth waiting in a line for/camping outside for/fighting other shoppers for in the cold/etc on Friday after Thanksgiving.

We are probably going to do 2 new cars (convertible/minivan). Although the Pilot/MDX is pretty nice.

The following are internet purchases:

I will also order a new Laptop (likely a Macbook - Pro versus regular - I am still trying to decide). Unless I get a crazy but to get a Netbook.

I am also thinking about the Sonocaddie Golf GPS.

I knew Circuit City filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. I didn't realize the stores were going to close so soon. I just picked up another flat screen TV for the Guest Bedroom upstairs. It was a decent deal for a Sony 32 inch LCD.

I'm going to look into getting a Wii or another GPS.

We really aren't buying much this year. Just passports for each other then three other gifts for others.
So unless the deal can't be beat, I won't go the day after T'day this year.

I will not get into crowds to shop. I started shopping in September and I'm almost done. I got a GPS for someone on QVC yesterday that seems to have all the necessary features for $99. I got all the grandchildren fishing poles etc on sale a few months ago, so once I have them done I sort of relax.

None, zip, zero, nada, nichivo.

I'm planning to buy nothing this Christmas. Regular price or on sale--nothing.

Not only do I not have any money for shopping, but I and everybody I know, has tons of stuff already. If anybody gave me something I had to find a place for--I'd just have to get rid of it. No place to put any more stuff.

Christmas is great for kids. The rest of us are overwhelmed with all the stuff we have now.
