Fixed the wii, so just picked up animal crossing and a wave bird on the bay.

Two awesome pickups. I never got around to snagging a silver wavebird. It was a great controller, but I only ever had gray.

As for me, I'm playing a little catch-up here on some of my more exciting purchases.

New Nikon D90. Got a heck of a deal on it; and since I only ever rent lenses, I figured it would be a good opportunity to upgrade my body - but I'm doing away with my Canon 40D and accessories. Still debating if I want to embrace the 4/3rds stuff, and get an OM-D. It sure would be nice with all my travel. Decisions, decisions. For the time being, though, I'm VERY happy with this guy.

Minnesota's are lame as well.

We took a drive last night. ;)

Notice the "Open for Business", it almost taunts MN and our archaic laws. Wisconsin was happy to take my money. :rolleyes:

Are those true M-80's in the ziploc? I wish I could find some nowadays, I picked up some M-66's and they are SO not the same. :(

Congrats, looks like a solid show! :cool:

Thank you! Unfortunately, no, those aren't the real deal. They're labeled similarly, but they're a HUGE downgrade from the real thing. I have a buddy that might bring me a bag of 10 or so for a twenty dollar bill tonight. But we'll see...

Lovin the wavebird to play smash bros - the main reason why I picked up a second one.

I am going to get the OM-D though. Waiting for next pay check ;) Have fun with the D90 though. Great camera, and I have always preferred the Nikon vs Canons. I had a D90 for a while and it did a lot of things really well. Enjoy.
 
With a little one around I'm needing to prep food quicker at night so - Russell Hobbs food processor

And been wanting to do some crispy fried fish and chicken for a while, and as my wife is allergic to gluten you can't get this stuff in the shops so I have to make from scratch. Batter mix sorted now, but cant fry it on the hob well enough so picked up a Breville 3L fryer.

Still struggle with NZ pricing though. Biggest disadvantage to living at the bottom of the world!

Good choices! I reviewed Starhawk and All 4 One for a site I'm writing for and they are both good fun, all though they require a certain taste (which I don't have). And SSX really is an amazing series, I've been meaning to pick that one up but for some reason unknown to me... I haven't.

Also, I think it's sweet that you guys celebrate 4th of July so heartfelt. Our day is 6th of June and all we do is stay home from work. :)

really awesome. were you able to get any rockets. Rockets are hard to find. these days its cakes and glorified sparklers. friend had something called a m100. thinking it was better then a m80 but it was laaaame. oh well.
 
Not really a purchase but a recent trade. Took the plunge and traded my 4S for a brand new One X. Hopefully it will hold me off until the new iPhone is released. Needed something new.

Just arrived. The DX is pretty cool. I wouldn't spend more than I did on it though..anything over $200 is too much and sad to say that's where the price is sitting right now.

I've always had a soft spot for the DX and wanted one for the free 3G and bigger screen. Do you like it?

So far really liking it. It is lighter than I thought it would be and the screen real estate is great for my terrible eyes. Great for couch reading. It also makes me really appreciate my smaller kindle 2 for on the go.

I don't remember if you have an iPad or iPad 2. If so how's the size/weight in comparison?

Just picked up $68 worth of OWC 4GB RAM for my 13" 2.4 Ghz Macbook 4.1. Hope the upgrade solves my FCE4 rendering problems.
