I bought a Samsung A50 for my mother. Seems to be pretty simple and works well. Ordered from Amazon on Friday for $350 with case and 64GB SD card. It came today.

I got Resident Evil 2 from PSN. It's about all I bought this time around.
I am suit shopping so I will be looking at Armani for the week before Boxing Day. I didn't have time to look this time around unfortunately.

The 4 star line from Henckels is one the higher end of the knives they make. I did a bunch of research and other knives I was looking at cost $80 to $150 each. This set is going to be way better than the knives you have.

Not on sale but I got these when I first moved into my new place. Never needed another knife. Amazing set, plus great display case. I did a lot of research before choosing this set, however I did not get them on sale, and I don't think they have ever been on sale. Worth every penny though. https://www.amazon.ca/Mercer-Culinar...03027991&psc=1 Quote:

Not just the knife quality but the fact you have ‘good knives’ will make you care for them more. I bought a block earlier this year and love them so far

I've been using my Henckels knife for about 18 months now and had no issues. It cuts, what more do I need it to do? Someone with my (lack of) culinary ability can't benefit much from a more expensive knife.

Henckles use to be a high quality brand. Just like everyone else they’ve created lower tiered products which are mediocre at best. I bought a set from Crappy tire and they were super sharp out of the box, but couldn’t hold an edge after that.
I received a higher end set for my wedding and they are fantastic. I’m no chef, but I can sharpen a knife and these seem to do a pretty good job of holding that edge.

But yeah, I'm afraid I've derailed the thread a bit haha - I am stoked to using them though!

I have my 7 Pro for a month now, and I quite like it. I should have waited a little more, but oh well. | $230 off the Pro now! That's a lot of phone for $669

nothing great,nothing amazing,only saved like $150 from a relatively just released tablet in October.
i5,16gb,128gb $1,050 
i had to deal with the fucking nerd at bestbuy trying his best to push sales tactics in the westbroad way location trying to sell his "Geek Squad" warranty bullshit...before saying there was "Bloatware" on the tablet that could be removed and save me space by them for a fee  ...
i swear those scumbags like him must trick some C-lai's who don't know shit about anything into buying into it end of the day.
i smiled in his face like "yeah i don't want to waste your time"....and he kept going about warranty
other than that,getting out of android tablets...into a windows 10 operation system is a fucking game changer
even if i want to play Android on the go,guess what?...There is a android emulator called "Bluestacks" that plays anything...pubg,call of duty... Also Bought the red Keyboard cover & wireless red mouse

That's a pretty good price on the One Plus One phones. I've always been a Galaxy guy, I've been using the same phone for a few years now and it's time to upgrade.
For those who have used them how does the phone compare to a similar Galaxy phone, I guess in this case it would be One Plus One 7T vs Galaxy 10. I can google a review just curious if anyone has had any experience and their opinion?

Yea crazy deal on the Breville, I actually got my 870 for even cheaper than that 2 years ago as Amazon had a crazy deal for like $460 and then I price matched it at bestbuy where they had it on for $900 so they beat the difference by 10%. Ended up getting it for basically the amazon price taxes included. Probably one of the craziest deals I’ve ever gotten lol
I ended up with the Sonos Amp buying it through the Avion Black Friday bestbuy promo, using some points and cash ended up paying $550 or so, it was discounted $150 which is the best deal I’ve ever seen on virtually any Sonos product
Very happy with it, powering 4 in-ceiling speakers in my living room now have seen less music throughout the home
