So we got the kid a lego batman for her DS for $5 - and yes - you can get cheap games if you wait - why pay like $50 - $60 for a new game right? she is happy as a lark for she had been playing this game with her dad on his xbox 360 for months now. It’s a game that she plays with him every Sunday - it’s the only time that the dad would spend “quality” time with her and she craved for the time with her dad - so that I can get a break - so she said. She is such a thoughtful kid.
Anyhow - the game was bought from a local yard sale online - and we didn’t push for it - the woman delivered it when she wanted to - and the daughter is very happy with it. Like any lego game - it’s mild and not violent - my kid is almost 8 yrs old and she loved it. Great for a boy or girl but of course reading is required so if you have a younger kid - an adult or a older brother or sister needs to help him or her read instructions.
For almost $2000 - you can find yourself this very modern looking foosball table - but I don’t think I would let the spouse or kid spend that kind of money - sorry! Made by RS Barcelona - said to give you a real feel of the football game with better control of the ball - made of lightweight steel - it looks really classy and I bet you can transport it to another friend’s place for a drinking session or while waiting for the world cup to come on tv - so if you are a die hard fan of the world cup - check this foosball table out.
I love the special shopping bags given to us by the supplier for the players at our store - in fact, I am really looking forward to custom making our own plastic bags for our customers too - but we are pretty el cheapo and don’t want to spend $0.50 cents for a plastic bag. While the spouse don’t think that it would boost our business - I think it just might give our business a better image but him being a man - don’t think a plastic bag would do a lot. So now I’m out hunting for someone who would do custom bags for very little money.
Are you ready for it? I think the rest of Canada will get it tomorrow except Nova Scotia - darn! everyone is closed till Saturday - for Remembrance Day. I have a copy pre-ordered from Shitstop - and will get it tomorrow. More on Skyrim once I get it.
Update : just got this today - Saturday - more on it later.
So the kid wanted to go horse riding with her friends from school - I didn’t know if there was any school that teaches horse riding here - so I made some inquiry and found out at there is a school nearby. So armed with our old pairs of english riding boots from when I was in university, the kids and I went last weekend for a getting to know your horse session. My horse was a pretty old horse and we trotted a long the fields - one behind another and the kids had a lot of fun - so we decided to sign them up for some lessons this fall. It wasn’t cheap - but I know they will benefit from the lessons. So this techy chick will be going for the same lessons as well - and it’s a form of exercise - so don’t say this techy chick ain’t healthy now.
I was looking for a gaming mouse not for myself but for the spouse - only 3 months to Christmas and this year - I am darn sure I want to start as early as possible. A gaming mouse would be a great gift for a gamer like him - so when i saw this gaming mouse from Logitech, I of course, need to read some review about it - to check it out.
You can pre-order this directly from Logitech - it’s called the Logitech G300 mouse - going at $39.99. It has 9 programmable controls and 3 on board profiles- meaning the gamer using it - can do more and faster. The way it is shaped is made for the palm and fingers to maneuver easily. Plus witha 2500 dpi optical sensor - and some durable buttons as we know gamers can sometimes be hard driven master on the buttons. Combined all of the above together and the good pricing - you will definitely find that you can play a lot better.
I saw this on Etsy the other day - and it sure brought back some childhood memories for me. I remembered going down to the game shop and spending a quarter each time playing the game and wanting to score some high score and wanting to look good in front of the boys in my neighborhood. Plus - it’s a great give to give to the spouse - I’m sure he would remember our pac man days. Check it out at Etsy.com - at $19.99.
My pimples are popping out and acne are starting to appear - because I’ve been doing so much online gaming - on Mahjong online - that I’m not getting enough rest. But they are so addictive and even though no real money transpires - I am still in that wanting to win mode - so my skin is suffering because of it. I read more about zenmed and decided not to use it instead there were other reviews for people like me. I want something that isn’t too expensive and will be effective with no side effects - or like the spouse said - get more sleep time and let my skin rest and drink more water - but I hate water - and I am addicted to my game - so I do have to get some good acne cream right? What’s life without my online mahjong!
So you have a laptop without any card reader? no worries - you can get this tiny micro SD to USB Adaptor and you are all set to transfer your files to and fro from a USB flash drive or cell phone. Only at $3 - sold at Gator Bytes computer & entertainment. And you don’t need to be a rocket scientist to know how to use this. You can’t go wrong with the price like this.
When the nephew asked for some Tornado Headgears for Christmas - I said to them - ” say what?” and did a double take hahah! silly aunt here - the nephew must be thinking. Well, I did find out that the Headgears were for wrestlers - duh! and I should have known for the nephew had been taking wrestling from a local club here for 2 years now. I had even gone to see his mini-tournaments last year and followed him to practices when his parents were too busy to chauffeured him around.
Anyhow, we did managed to find him his headgears and also some wrestling shoe skin and a motivational dvd for Christmas. I don’t know why he loves wrestling this much - but he was definitely a very happy boy on Christmas morning.
