I kept telling him that with back to school more specifically for college there would be great deals. He kept getting discounts/coupons from work for Circuit City and Dell but the deal either wasn't worth it for the laptop itself or they didn't have what we wanted.
Found one today in the circuit city ad though.... I had my eye on it, DH picked it up and said yup that's the one. I said yeah and if we wanted we could just do the 3 months financing and spread it out (school taxes are due next month ). So about 20 mins later he comes down and asks if I ordered it, I said Oh you wanted me to actually order it now? (Side note, DH Is very frugal and for a while I was just expecting "talk" after all he has his work laptop and I have this really fast, huge desktop) So within 20 mins I placed the order, did it with Circuit City's charge for 3 month financing and the best part is in-store pickup in Delware.... NO TAX! and of course SR credit!!!!! DH can get there from work in about 20 mins!
He's going to pick it up tomorrow at lunch. So of course I'm going to have fun playing with it but will have to get used to Vista, I like XP a lot. So I will be off to read Janet, Gay's and everyone elses threads who use Vista to get that all figured out. It's an HP 17 in monitor, 3 gig RAM, 250 HD, dual processor... Oh I'm going to be in heaven!
Now to see if DH will let me take it with me on Tuesday when I go up to my aunts. She's on dial up and I refuse to log in, but hey there's a McDonalds with free WiFi....
I also meant to ask it shouldn't be a problem getting credit thru SR since I clicked through SR for Circuit City, made sure my cookies were set right, added it to my cart, then applied for their CC and made the purchase. THe 3 months financing is more on the CC company right? I remember reading somewhere with delayed billing the credits could be delayed. Not that I care when, I'm just thinking it shouldn't matter bc the whole purchase is going right on the store cc and the cc bank is doing the 3 mos no interest. right?!?
