That bedroom you saw is 13.5' by 11.5', so I would say go with the 40" IMO.

I agree about the pricing on the LCDs. I bought mine in December of 08, and at the time they were running around $1200 for that model, I got mine for $850 on Amazon with free shipping. They have come down quiet a bit now though. If you get a "great" deal on a 37", maybe....but I prefer the 40" myself.

Would it not have been easier to run across the floor?

Ok, thanks for the advice. I bought my 46" in December 08 also, Bestbuy. Got it for $1600 sale price, regular price was $2100 I think. Couple times this year, I have seen it even cheaper than $1600 at BB. I will definitely keep Amazon in mind this time though, you scored a hell of a deal.

It was terrible tape too, it would fall off during class and hang in front of the door, and then coming back I would open the door, which caught the cable and pulled the TV damn near off the dresser. Or filing cabinet. Or whatever the fuck that shitty-non-working-drawer-system was.

You should have used duct tape...

Agree/Agree.

But it wasn't mine so I didn't really care

Amazon has some amazing deals. Especially so around xmas and Thanksgiving. Just keep your eye open. They often have free shipping also. I have bought a few big ticket items from them and have always been pleased with their pricing/service.

Another thing to consider is when newer models come out. This is what happened with my Samsung. The price plummeted when the newer models came out. I watched the price for almost 2 months before I purchased it.

If you don't like what you get, you can return it without any hassle also, for the most part. I never tried to return a big item, but have returned several smaller things. No questions asked.

what about going to a museum or aquarium.

The local mall has an ice skating rink, so I took a girl there on a first date once, then got her a shirt at abercrombie. Turns out girls don't skate when they are little anymore or something because she couldn't do shit.

**tatertot91** · 11-15-2009, 07:06 PM

You could try the beach
It be a great way to throw some miles on that odometer

**toi tyme** · 11-15-2009, 07:09 PM

I love ice skating, it's fun as hell. I'm not even that good, but that's probably what gives it more of a thrill.

It's called they have no money.. How about dinner and a movie in another city in another part of the country?

Works everytime..

i live in a small town... you always go out to dinner in a different city. and usually any guy i do date doesnt live in my city, and i always have to drive to where they are and shit.

and most of them had money to take me awesome places... i just dont like when ppl spend money on me and would avoid it at all costs...

even then a cool date would be absolutely awesome, but i always find myself feeling bad when a guy pays for things... and i have no money.. frustrating..

I got into it after the first mighty ducks. I can't do figure skating tricks, but I am pretty handy on them.

You did'nt get the meaning. I'm not talking about the next city over. I'm talking about grabbing a flight to another part of the country for dinner and a show.. .and you would never have to drive yourself anywhere, you'd be picked up..
