Refurbished (Good) - Lenovo ThinkCentre M910q Tiny Intel Core i5-7500T 2.7GHz, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD, Windows 10 Pro. -
$199.00

Honestly that old PC from 2016 was doing OK since I swapped to a SSD a few years back, but this processor is about 3x as powerful, still has an SSD, same RAM, and the whole thing is smaller, so it'll free up some space on the kids homework desk.

Thoughts & prayers for that Lenovo and its [Fn] button where [Ctrl] is supposed to be.

It s a desktop, I will be using a standard keyboard layout.

That brings my erection back!

As a poor person I shop at low end furniture places for couches my kids will inevitably use as a trampoline despite my constant scolding. Furniture extreme had a sectional + massive ottoman I was eyeballing on for $3600 down from like $5700. Ashley Furniture had the same couch less the ottoman on for $4300 but had a "125% price match guarantee" running so I ended up picking up the couch plus ottoman for $3400 from Ashley. Apparently, the price match is good for 30 days, so they told me to keep an eye on boxing day sales and if I find it anywhere else, including them, for cheaper to just screen shot it and email it to them for further discounts.

This will be perfect for the basement to watch movies and hockey.

Not a crazy deal, but need it.

BestBuy Sunridge is very efficient today. In and out in 4 minutes.

These polos from marks are decent, especially if you're tall. Normally $45, but two for $50 today plus 25% off, so essentially $20 each. (Plus the usual stacking of triangle points, etc)

I've tried to buy two different laptops from Memory Express online and it says out of stock at checkout. FML!!

I'm on the hunt for a knockoff eames lounger - but they all appear made for midgets not sasquatches... So very dissapointing.

Oh... And I need a rug that really ties the room together man :rofl:

And now you don't have to feel like your couch came from somewhere called "furniture extreme". It doesn't even matter that it's the same product, buying something at a place called that feels emotionally violating I would think.
