| Boxing Day 2017 Thread
Any good deals around? I saw some flyers with door crashers yesterday and actually paused for a second thinking "Door crashers? For what?" and realized just how little boxing day seems to mean now with the advent of Black Friday here...
I'm looking for earmuffs. Not sure what the manly version of that word would be, but earmuffs nonetheless.  |

$800 and a home mini as good as it gets for pixel 2?
I remember being in this same position last year and there was nothing good on boxing day.

May want to pull the trigger before they figure it out lol

Seems like amazon and memory express have similar pricing, MacBook Pro hard drive died on me and seems like an SSD upgrade is gonna happen.

I might need to get a laptop. Desktop is acting weird lately. Most likely just the HDD but I haven't done any upgrades to it for 5 years. Honestly I feel like a laptop is better for me atm.
Just need something that can watch Netflix, youtube. Must be decent looking. I was thinking of HP Envy line but most people say their hardware isn't good.
Any good suggestions from RS? Prefer something around $700 to $1000 max.

^Dell's boxing week deals are up. I ended up getting the 7577 from them during Black Friday and have no complaints so far!

After a tonne of research and reading opinions on this machine this is one of the best reviewed things I’ve bought in a long time. On amazon it’s 4.8 stars out of 5 with over 700 reviews and similar results on BestBuy etc
This is pretty much the best price this thing has ever gone for
