But I'm sure the bridgestones are in a completely new level of handling on your s4 compared to the usual crappy stock tires that come on cars these days

I'm interested to see how these do. I haven't run Bridgestones in a while so I'm looking forward to another go on them. They were a surprisingly good deal or I probably would have grabbed some Michelins.

The stock tires were ContiSportContact3s which I'd never seen or heard of before buying the car. They were surprisingly good in the dry but just ok in the wet. At 300+ a piece and my horrible wear experience there's no way I'd get another set.

Four all-season tires for the Chevy. $700:mad::(

$872 to Tire Rack and still have to pay the installer. I....win?

Agh I hear ya, I've heard nothing but horrible things about those contis, 872 as we'll is not a bad deal, I got 4 Conti DWS for my car and they ran 780 and well the tire size is pretty big, not that big but still tires for 18 inch rims are never cheap, but I've heard nothing but stellar reviews for the bridgestones
 
Just ordered this NIXON Cannon Watch! Tried it on at Zumies but found it tax free and $30 cheaper online :eek: can't wait to get it.

This was for a set in 19, so gives you some perspective on the deal. I was considering the DWS for the treadwear and option of taking my car on our occasional trip to the snow, but I live in a canyon in SoCal...so you know where this is going :D

Pebble Steel. Couldn't resist and with the shipping date slipping further away got my pre-order in.
 
it is so great for us girls to see you guys with sexy normal watches, they all look fantastic with their clock faces and not digital - all of them have been so lovely. So classy !!!:)
 
Managed to bag me a Nikon SB400 flash on ebay for a steal :)

I just ordered my Dream Machine...the Londinium I!

My accountant told me I was getting a Tax Refund, and instead of spending it reasonably, like paying bills maybe...I went totally insane and bought this beauty!

Going to try to sell my current machine to make up some dough...wish me luck!

Damn! I'd buy your old and clearly inferior machine but if I spent $1k on a coffee machine, I think even the dog would slap me silly.

Last purchase is doggie food. Nothing special.
 
Absolutely beautiful

Same for me, .45 joins my M&P9

I actually went in looking for a smaller .45 to keep in my EDC bag. Was looking for a Glock 30SF, which is nearly impossible to find. I go into the store and low and behold there is the 30SF. Finally I think trying to not hide my excitement.

Then I look one case over and see the 227 and it was game over. My first gun was a Sig and I love it (P229) and have shot it more than any other gun I own.

Still trying to convince the wife she "needs" an XDs to carry, even though she never carries...

I got the xds for concealed carry, just waiting on a course to open up. I got the zombie max HP ammo for it. For my M&P9, Im keeping that for home use, have to get HPs for that. I'm looking into the p226 for my next purchase

226 is a must have for any collection, great firearm.

I feel like no one really cares that you're a top 500 reviewer but you seem to mention it, a lot.

Why did you buy something just to review it? Do you actually intend to keep it or do you return a bunch of things?
