OT-Amazon Prime Day
So today is Prime Day at Amazon. They claim to have better deals today than on Black Friday. I ended up pre-ordering Bacon's new book, Endzone, and a new set of kitchen knives that were $160 under list price.
Did any MGoBloggers make any cool/necessary/impulse purchases? Support the blog and buy some material crap that you don't need!
You couldn't have posted this this morning?
If you shop on Amazon, make sure you use the link at the top of the home page so a portion of your purchase goes to support our favorite blog (and no, I'm not employed by MGoBlog - just trying to help a blog out).
For your convenience, here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&tag=mgoblog-20
Corporate shill! CORPORATE SHILL!!!!
I clicked on the mgoblog link and purchased a Fire TV stick for $24.99. Otherwise there wasn't much I wanted.
Is Bacon's book discounted today?
To be honest, I'm not sure. I hadn't looked it up prior to today, but I ordered the hardcover version for $14.66.
That's the regular kindle price, it's not a "Lightning Deal " for today.
The deal is for the hardcover book (original price is $27.99).
Yes, but it's still not a special deal for today, that's the normal deal. The 27.99 is the list price nobody pays.
I scrolled through everything available and the vast majority is junk. Very underwhelming
Yeah, it is a giant garage sale.
agree. very disappointed.
from Amazon, and I have to agree, a whole lot of hype for nothing.
I actually spent about a $1000 there today finally getting a bunch of things I'd been mulling over.
A simple "20% off everything sale" would have been a hell of a lot more usefull.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one. I buy everything from my dog's food and bed sheets, to power tools and the dehumidifier I just purchased. With free 2-day shipping and regularly lower prices, why bother dealing with crowds or driving across town?
Is it still today?
for the 49 inch 4k Vizio for $599 but I saw it too late and couldn't get the deal or the wait list. it was about $150 off and now the same price as the 43 I was planning to get.
I got the Kingman: The Secret Service Blue Ray + Digital Copy for $9.99. Good spy movie and the most accurate depiction of English Chavs I have seen in any movie.
Great line in that movie when he saves the girl from her cell.
her dad to watch while he recovered from surgery. Then we watched it ourselves. Yikes.
I believe that is pretty much standard Princess behaviour. I'm probably wrong but you'll never convince me otherwise.
I bought that a hard travel case for my headphones for when I travel for work. Can't beat $10 for a Blu Ray of that movie though. I was going to buy it anyway.
I was really disappointed. It was essentially amazons garage sale

deals started at 1201AM pacific...
most of the good stuff was only avail for a few minutes before the "waitlist" option popped up
That was my experience also...the few things I wanted were gone so quickly, it seemed like it was hardly worth the time I spent.
Is marketing garbage. No real deals that were available to all.
It's like Dave Brandon thought of it.
There were a few good deals but they sold out quickly. I got in on the Fire TV deal because I happened to look right before it went live.
I was thinking of purchasing NBA 2K15, but it was only $5 off, so I just kept the money. I think Amazon did more harm than good with this promotion. I'm not buying bars of soap online. I don't care if it is 36% off.
Comes with the system, The Witcher 3, Arkham Knight, and Playstation Plus (I have no idea what that is)
That's like $570 value for only $400. both of those games after getting game of the year talk (witcher 3 more so).
Also, PlayStation plus is needed to play games online. Plus you get about 2-3 games free each month. This month's free game, Rocket League, is amazing.
Do you really need Playstation plus to play online? On my PS3 you don't, PS+ gives you discounted prices on games online. But I haven't upgraded so maybe it's changed.
Games online on ps4, yes you have to have ps plus.
Dang Sony! Nickel and diming like Microsoft? Damn.
Yup. That was the secret of the PS4 launch.
They introduced their own Xbox Live but no one was paying attention because of the price difference with XB1 and concern about DRM.
If you ever need to buy Xbox Gold or PS Plus, look for deals on Ebay. You can get the, for real cheap. I've bought a year of Xbox Live for $36 not too long ago. I also found out you can buy subscriptions to Amazon Prime on there too because my free trial was running out right before this sale. I got over a year worth of prime for $16.
Not really any good deals outside of things I already own.
Meh.
4 cents off the PS4 Today (399.99 to 399.95). If you don't snatch up that deal you're a fool.

Really isn't a lot here that impresses me.
I'm reminded of that Office episode where Oscar goes as "the rational consumer"
New work laptop: $990 marked down from $1980!

I got a new Microsoft Surface over the weekend for over 50% off
?!?!
On Amazon?
I dropped mine last week and had to turn it in to get a replacement from my warranty, so I'll be buying a new Pro 3 in the next few days. Right now I only see $30 off the normal $100 discount on Amazon for my model.
I purchased a huge bag of Longjack (tongkat Ali) on Amazon early this morning from Bulk Supplements. This supplement is insane! I got a sample of it and its totally got my testosterone pumpin. Working out like a fiend...boners like metal water pipes. Didnt get any Prime Day discount though....
For real? May have to purchase some.

Careful of testosterone boosters. They may significantly increase the risk of prostate cancer, heart attack and stroke.

This tongkat Ali stuff is a root though. It's gotta be better for you than the synthetic supplements.

The active molecule(s) is (are) the active molecule(s) regardless of whether they were made in a living plant or an industrial plant.
It is ...its not a classic T booster and there are no studies that show any prostrate damage. There are several links on the web of clinical studies that show that Tongkat flat out works like crazy.
Just got back from a 3 Mile run and feel fantastic.
What on earth doesn't increase your risk? If your taking test boost I don't think you really care about any of that.
I plan on getting my T Levels tested in a few weeks, when I go in for my Oboma care annual physical... Id like to get a baseline started.
For my age, Im pretty muscular, no gray yet...everything works... but everyone could use a boost and stave off the aging process.
We should all get our Ts checked when we reach that certain age
They are thinking bang hard or die 5 years early. If they are below 50 they are buying the boost.
Longjack wont actually raise your test, but you will notice the effects in the bedroom.
