Sometimes posting bargains is easier than other times. It isn’t just a matter of going to the company’s website and pointing my little finger and saying, “Yes. That is the one.”
I have to go to the site. Find the cool deals. Go to the special page and see if I can put the link up here. Not all deals can be linked for whatever reason. Unfortunately one of the linking programs that sometimes gives me hassles is Overstock.com. It is working RIGHT NOW, so here come the late day Overstock.com bargains.
Bargain IBM Laptop for $499.99 - This one might not be here long. This laptop isn’t a “brand new, cutting edge, let’s replace the desktop with a laptop” type of thing that you might find brand new on other sites, but the IBM laptops are built like little micro-processor-containing tanks. They last nearly forever, and if you are looking to put some computing ability in your living room so you can search the internet this computer is great. If you need something that will allow you to stay in bed and not face the day watching DVD’s all day long, then this is your deal. With portable DVD players costing between $100 and $500 bucks, why not also get a machine that will let you surf the net and play solitaire?

I know you probably still have every Breakfast Club movie sitting around your house, but unfortunately your copy of St. Elmo’s Fire is on VHS. Well, now instead of having a clunky VCR and a DVD player in your rack of devices for under $100 you can have the combo unit from a reputable brand like Sony.

Oh, and if you want to backup that old copy of The Breakfast Club to DVD, you should probably combo your last purchase with this one. $100 for a DVD writer is pretty sweet. It doesn’t make much sense to copy one movie, but if you look at that entire VHS collection and possibly the home movies of you singing in the Christmas, errr Holiday choir when you were 7 years old, then this DVD writer starts to pay some serious dividends. You know you want those movies to live forever. Your best chance is getting them off that antiquated plastic tape that is just one wrong move away from being destroyed.

EVER. I implore you all to consider this item for your own lives. Almost as valuable as the cell phone, while being far less annoying in public.

Holy Megapixels Batman! 7.1? Let’s be honest, cameras are not this cool yet. It probably isn’t truly a 7.1 Megapixel quality, but let’s just say it is far and away better than a 4 or 5 megapixel camera. Fair enough? OK? OK.

Sometimes I come up with a product and I don’t know if it is a good deal or not. All I look is to see if the overall price is reasonable for the coolness factor. In this case, I have no basis to judge the cost to value ratio of an alarm clock that projects the time on the wall or ceiling. I just know that it sounds pretty cool, and for under $20 it is the kind of product purchase gambling that a whole lot of people wouldn’t be too offended. I may need to purchase one of these for myself because my eyes continually get worse and it would be fun to see a big time projection on my ceiling.

To start it off… Yesterday’s impossible-to-buy gift is today’s bargain. A Furby for $25.99
mobiBLU Cube 512 MB MP3 Player (Black) w/5 BONUS Music Downloads
Remember when these things were expensive? This one is only $79.99!
Freakonomics has been a hot book for a while now. Get it for an unsuspecting economist this holiday season for only $12.97.
Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
If they don’t like to read, you can get them the Audiobook on CD for $17.99. The cost of not reading is large, and I just proved it.

Have you heard about the violence and muggings surrounding the hype of the XBox 360? I choose not to get involved. You too can choose not to get involved if you buy a Gamecube. They are the most reasonable price that they have ever been. You get a whole bundle of stuff for around $115. Sure beats $400 + dollars and a caved in head for the XBox 360.
Do you have a Star Wars geek on your list? Is the DVD of Episode III not going to cut it as a gift? Have I got the stuff for you.
Limited Edition 11" Darth Maul Statue
Luke Skywalker and Tauntaun Statue
Exclusive Limited Edition Darth Vader Football Jersey

The Sharper Image isn’t a low price haven. We all know it. What they do have is an incredible selection of gadgets and toys that you are more likely to buy for someone else than you are to buy for yourself. I am not sure why we treat ourselves so badly in that deal, but at least we are taking care of our friends and family. Here are some cool items and they are on sale.
If you don’t have time for a cat or a dog, or even an aquarium for that matter, I have the product for you. A USB aquarium is the perfect stress reliever for you or your geeky computer-addicted loved one. It also runs on 2 double a batteries if you don’t feel like using up a USB port. It is a goofy gift, but for $9.95 it could be kind of fun.
Mac Mini’s are astounding when you see them in person. I have always been a PC guy, but one day I happened upon a mac mini at a Best Buy and the size is truly appealing. It is dwarfed by the XBox, for example. It is smaller than most VCR’s and DVD players. We all know what a premium desk space demands nowadays, so it is definitely worth consideration.
