Post your best buy this Christmas season!!

[singnring]

OK - this is a place to post the best deal you got while purchasing your Christmas gifts this year.
Try not to put everything you bought so as to keep it from getting too long.
I would love to see some of the best buys that went around this year!

I had 2 purchases this year that made me do the happy dance.

1) Toy Story Mania Wii game - went into one of the Meijer stores in my area and was looking at the 19.99 discount games and there sat TSM!!! Brand new, nothing wrong with it. Ran to the counter and bought it right away!! Someone messed up and thought it was a different game, but the mgr gave it to me because it was marked $19.99!!

2) Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics Wii - went to Meijer again and price matched with Best Buy for $29.99 plus got another $6 off with thier Santa Bucks cpn - Final price = $23.99!!

I am so-o-o-o excited about these 2 deals!!
Can't wait for DD to open them and the Wii system I got from WMart for $199 w/ $50 GCard!!!

Lucked up and found 3 Tom Tom GPS at Target 75% off. Regular right around $200 and I got them for about $50. Took care of two sisters and myself. Must have been bringing in a newer model - kept seeing the same GPS for much more in the ads that came out in the paper at other stores.

Not a great deal, but every little bit helps. Thought we were all finished Christmas shopping for DS3 before our December trip to WDW. Well of course he fell in love with the monorail playset down there and talked about it constantly. Saw Santa in DTD and told him he wants "monorails, monorails and more monorails". Everytime someone talked to him he told them all about the monorail. So using the 20% counter service coupon and the last of my Disney Rewards card I got it for him. Considering it is hard to get deals there for more than 10%, I was thrilled to take advantage of that coupon

I got a used Kindle 1 for dd in pristine condition, with 2 chargers and a case, for $100.

I then loaded it with free books from Amazon, classics such as Wuthering heights, as well as some free and cheap books I downloaded earlier (I have a Kindle).

Tuesday before thanksgiving, I saw on southwest under cruises that there was a R.C. cruise for the end of Jan for $399 each. Well I have been looking into them for a while just watching the prices. anyway I got

6 night cruise on the independence of the seas in a balcony suite for $1600. for the 4 of us. We are going down early and staying 3 days at (gasp) the nick hotel (paid for 2 and get the 3rd free) and then after the cruise used a code and got the caribbean beach for 3 nights for like $300. So my kids got a few things but not much els. I SO CAN'T WAIT. (it may not be Disney cruise but it was a great price and I get 3 days at disney)

I bought a 14k gold mother's ring for my Mom with my brother's, Dad's, Mom's, and my birthstones on it from Limoges.com. It was $125 but they were offering 20% off and free shipping, Sunshine Rewards was offering 8% back, and I got 1% back using my Disney Visa card so I paid about $88 and it is so pretty!

Oh and I had to buy four new tires for my car that I not only got at a great price but I also got a free Tom Tom GPS system that has been gifted to my bf (I hate GPS [for some reason I get a lot more lost than I did in the days of printing out directions from mapquest ]. He doesn't mind and I also got him some golf club he's been wanting [but couldn't find that thing on sale]).

I had wanted an elliptical forever but I couldn't justify the price of a new one. Last week, we found one on Craigslist for $40!!!! I could justify that, for sure! It doesn't even look like it's been used and it sold new for around $300. Merry Christmas to me!

I got a bunch of toys and video games 50-75% off during the year so those are great but DH wanted a specific government issue flight jacket. They don't really go on sale. He sent the link of the store to order it at and I notice they had a 110% price guarantee. It's rare that these jackets go on sale and it was a last minute request so I needed to order ASAP. I ordered it and then later found it at another website for $20 less the next day. I just got an email with the notice that I will get a $22 credit on my credit card!
