Did you spend on Black Friday/Cyber Monday?

I did the Black Friday thing from home this year and did nothing on Cyber Monday. I know, I need to plan much better next year so I can take advantage of the killer deals that were going on each of those days.

I made out pretty well by shopping online at Office Depot. They had the same deals as their Black Friday flyer in the store and online. I was able to snatch up two microSD/MiniSD/SD cards that were 2GB each. We are going to be using them in our new EnV phones when we can actually buy those phones. My contract is up in January and then I can start a new one. I am looking forward to unlimited texts, pix, and flix all over the place. And with the new EnV I am going to make use of all the great features.

One of the features is bluetooth. I also picked up two bluetooth headsets. This was in part due to the fact that my current phone. The evil little bastard, isn’t working correctly with a wired headset and I can’t use the speakers on the phone itself. It is weird, I’ve done the hard reset a number of times and it hasn’t worked. I’m toughing it out for another month or so.

Despite my poor planing I think I did make out pretty well on Black Friday.

The LGVX10000 Voyager

I’ve been debating over getting a new phone. Should I get the current EnV that is on the market or should I wait a bit for the LGVX10000. The EnV is $309 retail in the store and you can get $50 mail in rebate, and with Verizon’s new every 2 I can use $100 towards buying one so that brings the price to $149 in the store. Online the price starts at $249.00 and with the $50 off and $100 off it is $99.00. I wonder how these cell phone companies can do that, it is annoying. Granted I would much rather buy things online then get the hard sell from the guys in the shop.

What I am really wondering is if the price of the EnV will drop once the Voyager comes out. I am hoping that this will happen because I really want the EnV. My friend Mr. Fab has one and I want to be Fab too.

You can see a good review of the Voyager on Gizmodo too.
