So what was your best Cyber Monday Purchase?
2As much as I HATE woot, they had a barf off today and they had a lot of interesting stuff on sale, way too much. But there was a lot of other good stuff everywhere else, with coupons and great prices. Did you get anything good?????

Got a highly rated crib mattress for $56 off Amazon. Also a mop from Target. My shopping has been super-sexy lately.
I'm still contemplating ordering a certain item now, or waiting a few months with the hope that the cost goes to lower than what I would pay today.
@FroodyFrog If we guess what the item is do we win it?
@sammydog01
Highly doubt you'd figure it out.
Only 2 people on this planet (besides myself and Big G) know that I want this particular item, so...
@FroodyFrog Well, did you buy it?
@sammydog01
Sadly no. Oh well, at least i have something to look forward to eventually.
@FroodyFrog guessing engagement ring?
Purchased a $300 convertible baby seat for about $175 with a $50 gift card. That and diapers...Lots of fucking diapers!
@studerc your present, my future...

Catshirts from catshirtswoot. And a non-catshirt hoodie.
Also a couple doggie drool wipes, aka shirts from TeeTurtle.
... and since it's still Monday here, a pile of headlights. That way, I can misplace them in more places before running out!
@narfcake I bought a pile of random shirts. What percent do you predict will have cats?
dishwasher. $205 off
A nice big television. And another television. Perhaps a third television too. I think I bought some other things too, but I can't remember. Ugh.
Won a broken Galaxy note for $50, only issue is supposed to be the sim card reader doesn't read the sim card.
I only want it for an MP3 Player LOL
My main focus was on upgrading my gaming pc.. I got an amd Radeon r9 390 card, and 16 gb (2x8gb) sticks of ram. Gonna try out Fallout 4 I think
@kadagan My kids and nephews claim it's the "best game ever." I can't get them to move away from the damn pc.
@kadagan @pitamuffin is right. At least best damn game out right now. The graphics aren't mindblowing, but the content is pretty ridiculous.
Woot had me on and off all day, too. Gaahhhh. And those eggs. Drat. Spent too much money.
Was going to get a Canon 5DS-R from adoroma for $3599 no tax comes with a $300 microphone. It wasn't a Black Friday deal and didn't want to spend money that I didn't need to.
Bought 3 hover board scooters for my kids and nephew. Got some games fallout 4 for $37
Skyrim legendary edition for $6 something
Yeah. Mediocre.
Last year I bought two ipad air2 and Best Buy shipped me 3.
Got my lift tickets for my ski trip to Tremblant at the end of January! Extra discounts on Liftopia for a few days. Picked up a Dyson V6 Motorhead the other day for half off and treated myself to a new down jacket from REI at a nice price. It was totally selfish Black Friday/Cyber Monday for me. Damn it, I deserve it!
Got some $50 Fire tablets for the grandkids.
Only $35, so kinda cheap.
2 hockey sticks, shinguards and socks @ 25% off on hockey giant + free shipping
I really wanted a 12 month playstation plus subscription but couldn't find any deal today :-(
@TaRDy bloop
@TaRDy Or there is this, which I got in on last time it came around. It's newegg on ebay. But I think you have to move fast as they sell out quickly.

@Lotsofgoats @pitamuffin thank you both for the links, grabbed one last night!
I got this bad boy at full retail, because I waited until Cyber Monday in hopes it would price drop a bit but it didn't.
@Saffer49 I didn't have the spend for that, but I too upgraded my card. This one:

Games at full HD now. What a concept! Got it for free because I used my Amazon points, so kind of a deal?
@Saffer49 I'm still running the 4gb 670 I bought back in 2012 -- it's starting to slow down a bit on newer games though. Evolve kills it. It just about melts on high settings
@Saffer49 whistles
That's a pretty piece of video card right there. I thought we spoiled @humper by getting him the 970 last week...
@Thumperchick You did spoil me. Like you do everyday when I wake up married to you.
@Humper Shit man, thanks a lot . . . @MrsPavlov will read that and now I'll have to work even harder. You've got a keeper there @tHumperChick. I'd tell you guys to get a room, but you, well, have one already. Plus there's always the kitchen, living room, garage . . . etc.
@Humper

@Pavlov

@Humper ughh....
@Humper Aww... You are adorable.
@Thumperchick The feel when only after it arrived I realized I don't have enough DP cables to hook up my 3 monitors. First World Problems.
@Saffer49 Ouch!
I got a dehumidifier (my current one died). Meh.
I almost pulled the trigger on a Dell 34" ultrawide curved monitor. It was $759 and included a $250 Dell gift card. Seemed like a great deal, but further research showed me it has been $100 cheaper previously. I'm not in any rush, so I balked. I do REALLY want it though.

@ACraigL I picked up an LG 34" 21:9 off of Ebay on Sunday for $319 -- It wasn't hugely discounted, but I feel like $80 off of retail was enough for me to grab it. I can't wait until it arrives!
@capguncowboy Was that a curved one, or flat (so 2015)? I'm hearing so many mixed messages around which is better. I do 50/50 graphics/gaming so not sure if the curve is worth the extra spend.
The curve looks so damn cool though!
@ACraigL @capguncowboy I'm curious too. Curve is tempting, but none of these super-wide panels seem to have great color reproduction yet (photo/design work), and the curved ones sound like they're prone to backlight bleed…
@ACraigL it wasn't curved. I think that's a gimmick, at least for tvs. At least on a monitor, you're sitting close enough for it to be beneficial.
I have 3 kids. I felt fortunate enough to be able to afford the flat panel version
Got a soccer ball and shin guard for my son. 25% off w/ free shipping from Dick Sport
I didn't get it Monday, but I saved over 60% on a replacement Jenn-Air 30" 1.4 cubic ft. microwave oven (cabinet build-in model, black). It was still over $650 w/ tax (I'll do the install myself to save) but my 11 year old burned up the one that came with the house this weekend (quite literally), so I didn't have much of a choice - and the Mrs. wanted an exact match. Meh.
@Pavlov maybe I'm not far enough along in life, but I've never even heard of a microwave costing that much...
@luvche21
Microwaves with cup holders are expensive ;)
@luvche21 Me either. Do you think you'd feel bad putting something like pizza rolls in a $650 microwave? Or would it just roll its eyes at you?
@luvche21 @tHumperChick - I was lucky to get one that matched so inexpensively. It is for a space that had been purpose built into the cabinets when the kitchen was designed. Plus it is a Jenn-Air, which adds to the price, but not necessarily the quality (IMHO) . . . but all of the kitchen is Jenn-Air, in black, and that was what @MrsPavlov wanted to replace it so it would match. The Mrs. said I should buy two, in case something happens to this next one, that way she'll have another that matches perfectly in reserve just in case, as they've discontinued the model.
Sears had three of them, I bought two. They waived the freight (shipping from Illinois), or I wouldn't have bought them (they wanted over $200 each to ship). The original retail on these was astronomical . . . This is what I get for buying a house with a designer kitchen.
Never. Again.
@Pavlov Ahh, that makes sense. I guess there's a downside to a custom kitchen.
@Thumperchick I think I'd feel bad putting anything in a microwave that expensive...
@Pavlov I'll be buying a house in a year or so, and I'll definitely keep that in mind.
@Pavlov
I hope your son knows not to experiment in the new microwave.
@FroodyFrog I don't think it will ever be an issue again . . .
@Pavlov
Or so you hope.
@FroodyFrog That's all one can do - they don't come with a manual. But I think he's aware of the seriousness of the situation.
@Pavlov i would have driven them to you for like half that since I'm from Illinois. (Though i assume they're Chicago area and that's like 6 1/2 hours away. ...)
@MsELizardBeth Thanks! But luckily they waived the shipping - and yes, they were in Tinley Park.

Cyber Monday sale from Hilton, so I booked a hotel room for an upcoming "surprise! We are going to Dallas only because flights were on sale for $78 and it was a direct flight!". If I can find a rental car flash sale, that will complete the trifecta. Now we gotta figure out what teen boys will do there in winter.
@Pamtha Hotwire.com's Hot Rates have typically given me the best prices.
I bought a latte at the local coffee shop and some clothes from children's place at 50% off
