My New Toy / Early Christmas Present

This year for Christmas, I told Bryan that I wanted a very small digital camera that would always stay in my purse!! So we have been looking for months and months! We finally decided that Sony was the right brand for us! They have so many features!

Best Buy has had some really good deals; and even if they don't, they honor competition! AND Bryan has a friend who works there and he has been helping us out! Well last Sunday (11/16), we were checking out cameras to figure out exactly what I wanted! Well they had this camera in black marked down to $179 ... which being regularly $399 is really good! But we were just not ready to buy, and wanted to check Black Friday Deals!!

So on Friday (11/21), we went to Best Buy with some ranch boys! There happen to be one of these cameras left, but it wasn't priced $179 anywhere! So we took it up to the front to see how much it was ... it rang up at $399!! Bryan and I were like NO! That camera was "clearance" to $179 last week ... he said that it was clearance and now it was regular price!! Has anyone ever heard of something being clearanced and then moved back to regular price? Well anywayz, there was no way we were paying $399 for that camera, so we walked away!

On Saturday (11/22), after hanging out at the mall with the ranch boys, they wanted to go to Best Buy/ Academy! We saw Bryan's friend there ... so Bryan went to tell him what happened! He asked us how much the camera was marked last week ... we said $179! He was like well that's messed up ... We don't clearance stuff and then move the price back up! He asked if we wanted it ... we said for the clearanced price, yes!! So we went to the register ... and he rang it up at $159!!! We were just a little excited!! OK maybe we are overwhelmed with joy!! We got an amazing camera for fraction of the price!!

So Merry Christmas to me!! :)
