I havn't been there in a long time and I just got a 30 dollar gift card as an early Xmas present.

Do they have anything good there?

I was thinking that they might have some nice sales after Xmas.

Do they have Rheobuses there?

How do you pronounce that? Rio bus?

maybe I'll get some thermal epoxy there... Their fans are REALLY expensive. A waste if you ask me.

So any ideas?

Games are always nice, maybe a CD or two (and at $15 a pop two is all you'll be getting). Their hardware is way over prices, so I'd stear clear of that.

I don't think they have rheobuses at Bestbuy.

Music Cds are probably relatively cheap there this time of the year.

Blank CDs if you're too cheap to buy the real thing :p

Yeah I wouldn't get computer gear there, but games, dvds, music CDs and blank CDs are all good stuff ;)

While I'd normally agree, their $2,000 credit offer with 18 months to pay it off lured me into the purchase of my Toshiba laptop ;).

Best Buy would be the last place on earth I'd ever bring it for service though.

Games don't really interest me, and my dad sometimes buys them for himself so I leech. And I don't need music. Blank CDs I buy when they are on sale for $2 after all the rebates. But I just use hard drives..lol

Even though their hardware is very expensive, its just a giftcard. Maybe I could find someone that loves bestbuy and sell it to them for 25 instead. Then buy myself a fairly nice rheobus online, maybe something like DigiDoc5 if I find a really good sale online.

Or maybe the day after Xmas buy a HD if they're really cheap there. And maybe sell it on ebat new. If I didn't open it.

Maybe a HD enclosure, I do transport a HD regularily.
