yeah! VVS2, F, 1/2 carat in white gold 56 diamond setting.

Can you believe these little things go for as much as a macbook pro? Even more than some models?! I get MUCH more utility out of a computer but you cannot deny the bling. ;)

It goes great with my $4k Diamond earrings my mom bought me too. It's so crazy because I am not even that flashy kind of girl! But I do use diamonds to show off some class :eek: . It's awesome being home...

EW!! You are THAT guy! :p

@schneider!

Not even for someone you love? as a symbol of love? Cheesy...and even me being a very level headed, techy, almost tomboyish, and independent girl...I still love it. haha.

Like I said I wouldn't buy it for myself. But hey if it makes you happy (and girls do love diamonds) then that's all that matters. I would settle for
A nice Omega :D which I think is much worth it.

Oh in that case.. I agree. I would never buy it for myself ever. But I would be thankful if someone bought it for me. (Thanks mom and dad!)

I would rather pick up a watch or ahem, other fun toys!

Needed more storage, popped along to the new Best Buy Store at the Merry Hill Ctr, Picked up a couple of WD 1tb Caviar Green Hdd's for the Mac Pro, perfect for what I wanted, and Price wasn't too bad either :) Best Buy is a pretty good Store.

I loathe Best Buy. Prices are not "best" by any means. Service? What service? Products, nothing special really.... Oh and their in-store warranty? HAHAHA

I try to only support Mom and Pop shops now. They NEED to have good service to stay in business. Seems America is happy with chains providing sub-par service.

But here in the UK Best Buy is a novelty, there are only a couple of stores, and I just felt I should try them out, But as for poor service, I'm pretty sure we invented it, sure feels like it when dealing with just about anything over the telephone, but so far my (1) experience of best buy is that they are ok, plus i like their bags too :)

It's seriously amazing how much their prices are marked up.

I have a friend who works there, so he gets me his discount from time to time.. I got a $50 case for my iPad for ~$20, same with a $50 incase hard shell for my MBP. My iPad dock was ~$20 as well.

Though, I hear the real savings come in when you start buying things like TV's. He isn't the type to really exaggerate and he told me he got a $1200 tv for around $400.

Oh and I guess I don't even need to mention that their ~$30 cables usually go for around $3 with the discount. And that's 5% above cost. They make a killing on those things.

And weren't you the one who thought of selling your MBP because you needed money :eek:
