    Well, here are some deals I fell for....actually the Roku is x-mas present for my sis.

    Roku 2: http://amzn.to/IzDCIX

    Also, on Amazon use promo code "BOOKDEAL" and take off extra 30% off books(or A book, not sure which)

    I'm in need of getting two domain names and www.namecheap.com is running hourly deals.

    Is this why cyber monday was invented? I guess if you can still breathe, then you can still click a mouse from your hospital room?

    Hmmm. It seems to be 30% off up to $10, and it seems you can only use it on one order.

    Still, thanks for posting. I got a $30 book for $20.

    +1, EA. That video says it all. One more bit of evidence to support my suspicion that our society is in steady decline and the fall of our new Roman Empire is not far away.

    My 3pi and new high torque CR servos arrived. I am stunned at the 3pi's tiny size, but it will be nicely complimentary to my other robots. It is exclusively for line following, and although my CBA robot had a line following module, I rarely used it because the robot was so large. The new CR servos will be used to soup up my Boe-bot. The old CR servos will go to a new robot that I don’t need but will build anyway.

    Not sure if it's been posted but I found what I would consider to be a 'good' deal. What I found was a deal at Brookstone for two Boogie Board LCD Writing Tablets for $70. Normally they cost $60 each. So an extra $10 for an additional Writing Tablet? No brainer in my opinion. Anyways, here's the link.

    Yes...note to self...stay away. I have at least a dozen "soon" to be built kits. Some purchased in the 80's. Two Saturn V's to be built first.

    Keep a lookout for: steel mechanix skyscraper 270 pcs set, 50% or more off after Christmas sale =$5 or less
    Many different type of metal brackets for that robot project.
    Publix and Dollar General is a good place to start.

    Stopped at some Radio Shacks on the way to Grandma's house...

    Killer deals on the Panavise electronic workshop vise setups, Parallax PING units (how many PINGers should anyone own?), Dremel clone kits, solar panels, Arduino shields, Xbee kits,Weller soldering stations, lots of dirt cheap components...looks like the little RS elves never got around to shipping the stuff back up to the North Pole.

    And used my many $10 off coupons from previous purchases...making silly cheap stuff even cheaper...and sillier?.

    Almost forgot to mention...take a hard look at the RS advertisements in the latest Make and Servo..where they show using the PARALLAX PING module...the Parallax product that they have discontinued!

    Good catch...mechanical stuff is rarely discounted.

    Thanks for posting this...you made some kids very happy on Christmas morning.

    The Pro Series kits (along with the Nike Smoke) were on sale at Frys around Thanksgiving for the same low price...EXCELLENT kits for BIG kids like us.
