i have radiant floor heating (water) and my 2 wire $30 digital t-stat seems to be crapping out. Is it worth it with my heating system to go wifi/smart? if so, any deals on anything good? this is all new to me

If you have a pretty consistent routine and/or small floor area, it’s probably not worthwhile to go smart/wifi from a financial aspect.

Looking to get a Playstation 4. I admit, I'm totally out of the loop when it comes to game consoles. I used to be an avid gamer when the kids were young. Dad was the guy to beat. Not anymore. I was also a Nintendo fanboi. I have every one of their consoles and handheld. From the original to the Wii U and Switch. I started my gaming obsession on a Commodore Vic 20 and an Atari, lol. Anyway, jumping ship and looking to get a Playstation. The kids (all but one still living at home) are into the PS platform and there seems to be a shitload of different models and bundles. Which one is the best and where's the best/cheapest place to get one?

All on electricity, so savings by going gas to heat the house is offset by cost of running air purifiers and air conditioners............... anyway.

Saw some AC cheap flights to YYZ last week for $290 tax in. It's gone back up this week to $340 tax in. Air Transit is around $270 tax in.

Hoping for Black Friday deal for to be even cheaper, looking to do a couple days to visit family in YYZ in January.

I'd definitely go 2 channel for starters vs plug and play front cam only.

Not sure how familiar you are but the cheapest you can get easily for under $100 would be a single channel meaning it's just 1 camera facing forward. Plug and play plug into the lighter adapter, mount the cam and drive. Will only work when the car is on and you'll have to unplug and plug every time. You "could" just leave it but it kind of defeats the purpose. Of course going this route you have no camera for the rear nor do you have any recording for when your car is off i.e. a hit and run in the parking lot etc With that said, it's the cheapest option.

2 channel you get front and rear cam and you get it hardwired into your car meaning it's basically just part of your car now. No plugging in or unplugging. It'll record even if your car is off, don't worry there's protection it isn't just draining the shit out of your battery and recording non stop. This is way more expensive however but it only takes 1 incident on the road to pay it off. 2 channel imo is a no brainier.

Can't really ever go wrong with BlackVue and Thinkware. They have both been around since pretty much the beginning but price tag is also premo.

Blackboxmycar's youtube channel/website has a lot of great videos and guides breaking down each category from best 2 channel to best budget etc

Check out dashcamtalk, they have sample videos of different models and links to sellers. Gearbest usually has sales.

32" TV.. damn that's small.

My aunt has a 32" in her family room and it's horrible to watch TV on.

Just buy her a cheap no name TV or one from superstore.


edit; there's a 58" smart tv from the source for $400.

$299 in store.

It might be a good idea to add a cheap sound bar.

BestBuy will have the 50" Insignia for $200. Their house brand isn't bad for what it is. It has no smart features, but you can get the Firestick for $35 which is better than the built-in app anyway.
