How much was it? I love my smart cover but I always have to be really carefully when i'm placing my ipad mini down.

I got it for $20 on eBay. I would suggest going that route unless you are scared to mess up the application. If that is the case I would suggest buying through a retailer to take advantage of the lifetime warranty.




Bought 2 flights home for me and my brother to visit my parents. Baltimore, MD to San Jose, CA. I am finally getting vacation time in.

Finally picked out and ordered. Probably the most stressful few weeks of my life picking out a center stone, sizing, etc. without my girlfriend knowing. Should be arriving in a few weeks.

Very nice choice. I went Tacori for my wife's rings as well. Best of luck.

Well I finally have a valid large purchase to put in here.


I wanted to get a new macbook air, but the config that best fit my current and possibly future needs was quite costly for me at the moment so when I saw the Asus g75vw gaming laptop on sale at the BB for 674 usd before tax I just had to get it close to 50% off of current retail and while it was refurbished I am not to worried.


Along with that a few days ago I picked up a Nikon d40x DSLR with a 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses, 2 batteries and an SD card for 250 quite a nice camera for my first one even if it is old, it really is much like my moms d3100 though



EDIT: can not figure out how to load pictures with my nexus 7 from Google images

So doing some small home renovations.. Wanted something simple and functional. Walked out with the LACK sofa table and BORGSJÖ TV unit from IKEA. I'm satisfied..:D

got a pre-sale discount rate...cant wait till they open in 3 weeks, happy that ill be leaving planet equipmentless, oops i mean planet fitness

What do you want to use that they don't have?

I'm not defending them.. just curious. I'm a member at 4 different gyms and PF is one of them and i've never really felt like they were lacking too terribly much. They don't have a stepper, though, which is strange to me, since they're a pretty popular gym for people who think cardio is the only way to get a good workout (read: people who are new to working out).

I'm not generally a fan of very "blingy" rings, but that is beautiful. You did good.

I suppose I should post a photo of my last purchase(s)..

Bought some Swan M10's from the Marketplace here..

(The globe, the rack the sunlgasses are hanging from, plus the white and havana wayfarers (don't think you can make out the havana ones) and the wayfarer glasses are recent purchases as well)

And I gave my D3000 to a friend who has a ~7 month old son.. so I had to purchase a new DSLR to use for random outings, instead of taking a $2,000+ camera with me.

It's a pretty nice little camera. Just need to get a less expensive, but decent all-purpose lens for it. I hate the 18-55 kit lenses that come with most of the lower end Nikons.

Also a little disappointed that it doesn't have bracketing, but from what i've read, to do HDR shots on it, you don't need bracketing. I'll have to try it out.

I've been on a bit of a buying spree these last few weeks. A lot of small purchases, but they're adding up quickly!

Learning how to cook for myself, have to store it somewhere right? :D

FINALLY replacing my old 10-19 inch (not sure how big(/small!) it really was) cube tv in my room. 29" LCD TV looks great next to my 27" monitor. Felt it was a good buy for under $200.

1. that stupid siren that they use has to go
2. free weight squat rack
3. free weight bench press
4. free weight barbell stand
5. their concept, have you seen their commercials?
6. their target audience, who are they trying to target, high school kids??

keep in mind that the equipment i mentioned are BASIC gym equipment that a regular gym has.
im a ex-trainer and this is the worst gym i have been to, maybe in your PF they have more equipment but the one by my house is garbage

Finally picked up the Logitech Tablet Keyboard. I have been using an offbrand BT keyboard for about a year. I have been using my iPad more for writing since I have been back in school so I figured it was time to invest in a better keyboard. Amazon had it on sale for $48.42 (reg. $69.99) so I had Best Buy price match it for me. I love it so far :)

Sorry for the bad pic

I wasn't aware that Best Buy priced matched Amazon (Thought it was only other brick and mortar stores). That's something I'll have to remember.
