Mail in Rebates

I have come to the conclusion that sometimes mail in rebates are not worth it. I spent about an hour the other day getting together all the rebates for Turbo Tax and all the other software. Is it worth it? I guess so in this case because it was about $70 in rebates but did I really need all the other software I was getting "Free". Free after mail in rebate of course. In the future, I think I am not going to consider an item on sale unless it's at least a $20 mail in rebate.

HDTV

I love HDTV. Today was the first day I have been able to sit down and watch HDTV. The Patriots game was awesome! This is what I was hoping for when I got HD service. I knew it was really good when Claire even admitted the picture was much better. And she doesn't even like football.

Even though I have a TV with a HD Tuner built in, I got an external Samsung HD DirecTV receiver. I got an amazing deal from DirecTV. All I paid was $99 and that included the HD receiver, installation, and an over the air antenna that goes on the roof. Before, I could only get NBC in HD with the indoor antenna.

Version 2.0

As you can tell, I am close to offically releasing Toon-Time.com Vesion 2.0. There are still a lot of little things I need to fix. Feel free to click around but just know things might not work or look very nice. I hope to have everything is finished by the end of the weekend.

Stay warm everyone,

-Greg
