SHOPPING SALES

Postby mighty_tiger_79 » Thu Dec 27, 2007 4:45 am

some shops opened up at midnight at marion and i stopped by to have a geeze on my way home from work.

Not many people there with only a couple of stores open, a lot more peaceful then it was one year went down after a fair few bevvies and all the shops were open - couldnt get a park anywhere and it was packed in like sardines and that was about 3-4am!!!!!!

the good thing about that night was all the chicks were dressed up as if they had been out clubbing rather then going shopping :lol: :lol:

Im heading out with the kids today as the kids got some $$$ from their grand parents, I think my daughter will just come for the drive as she's incredible when it comes to saving but my son will blow his $$$ on every bit of wrestling merchandise he can get his hands on.
Im probably going to stop at officeworks and get a decent computer chair and a 320gb external hard drive, what a geek!
(Im sick of sitting on a kitchen chair in front of the PC!)

Nah, enjoying my hard drive, gave me the opportuntiy to easily reformat my hard drive which I haven't done since buying the PC in Feb 05.
Also feel better knowing all my photos are backed up now too.
My PC is running great now! :D

PS Yes, Im a geek but my current employment is as a programmer so you'd expect that. :wink:

PPS Didn't get a new chair, despite their being sales the only chair I felt truly comfortable in was $340. Couldn't justify that for a chair. :evil:

Yeah, that's what Ive used for the last 5 years, but Im getting fatter and more uncomfortable as the springs pop out of it. :evil:

I spend more time on the PC than I do in a lounge chair or in bed so I should fork out for a nice chair.

We have a couple of gas operated low back leather desk chairs we picked up at an Officeworks sale at $69.00 each. The wife prefers hers to the $500 ergonomic chair I once bought her because of her bad back, so I would suggest checking Officeworks out.

Yeah, that's where I went, didn't like any of the cheap chairs, only felt comfortable in the $360 one.

I guess it's like car seats - no one fits all because we are all different shapes.

Agreed, but dont get me started on car seats, so much easier in my EF Wagon where the missus would put the chair up and I'd put it right back, since we've had the new XR6 I have to make about 12 adjusments every time I get into the car after the missus has driven it. Bloody electronic positioning and adjustable shoulder strap. :evil:
Next lifetime Im finding a partner who's built exactly like I am (mind you I don't know if that would look too attractive on a femail! :lol: )

We have a long single driveway though so its always easier taking the XR out. :wink:

I test drove a Jag XK Coupe back when they first came out - one thing I did like was the fact that you could programme in two or three seating positions and each driver just got in and clicked the switch to their position and sat there while the car rearranged everything including them!
[No I didn't buy one! Still have the the car I bought in 1995, with manual seat adjustment.]
