I got a $50 gift card for $40; that was it.

I got a neat-looking guitar amp and a lot of books.

ACDelco UltraMAX 10-Count AA Alkaline Batteries; net price $3.51 [www.amazon.com]
Tried to order two packs but the "20% off coupon" only worked for 1 pack.
Placed another order & got the 20% off! Both arrived today in same package.
20 AAs for $7.02 (Deal is still good.)


Also got some Wrangler cargo pants dirt cheap.

Ordered new iWatch 6 today as result of BD...but from Costco (Costco had a sale that coincided with BD). Also got 1/2 price AC+ -- it's available on all Apple purchases through 10.16 from Costcoland.

Just the bonus gift card. The wife bought an office chair on Amazon today, but it was the regular price. We needed a new chair for our son's "schoolwork" cuz he's been borrowing Mom's chair and she wanted it back.

.....my soul is intact......

I bought:
- bonus gift card
- 12TB hard drive
- a cheap action cam. Some GoPro offers made me think about what I wanted.
- a couple of items unrelated to the sales.

I was debating to get an Oral-B Pro Series 5000 for $50 (seemed like a good deal), but they ran out ... I do need a new toothbrush, but am bewildered by the wide variety of Oral-B options. I like the one I have, but it's ancient (by toothbrush standards, anyway) and the battery is dying.

Oh yeah, and I got the gift card, like everyone else. Still haven't received my code for the extra $10 though.

Oh and kicking myself for getting the Ring Alarm this past summer... if I could have waited, their deal on the 10-piece Gen 2 kit was excellent.

Embarassing myself on the Internet since 1978.

14-piece Ring Alarm with free Echo Dot + 25% cashback on Prime Card & $10 off for ordering from a small business before Prime Day.

Long story short, didn't get the Dot, but ended up with a $25 credit instead, which works out better for me since I wouldn't use the Dot anyway.

All in, effectively making my cost ~$115+tax for a $330+tax system.

Echo Dot with smart plug and the gift card.

Had to give Alexa a test run to see if I'm missing out on anything.

"Fun" being the key word. Here are my purchases.
The total is $0.00 because I used the Amazon eGift Card deal to pay for the games.

Two 12T WD externals.

Went back for a third later that night but the time difference killed the deal.

Missed the card bonus, could have used a couple pair of cargo pants.

As best I can tell, any electric toothbrush does a pretty damn good job. That said, I've used both oral-b and sonicare and I prefer sonicare.

Interesting, I'm the opposite and like Oral-B. They have so many different models now, it's overwhelming... ranging from a 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000, 7000, 9000, Pro-IQ, all kinds of bells and whistles, Bluetooth to tell you you've been doing a good job brushing or nag you to brush more often, bright blue LED smiley faces on the toothbrush, etc., etc. For gawds sake, it's a fricken toothbrush!
