Amazon Prime Day 2025

vusleeper July 8, 2025

Amazon Prime Day is here. The event will run through July 11. I ask you to not buy anything on those dates, because Amazon will mess up on your orders (wrong items, wrong location, missing deliveries)… it’s almost not worth it for the savings. I’ve experienced these problems first hand. Oh, also, I should also add to the note that the delivery time takes much longer. Normally you get your products in one or two days, but on Prime Day (this also applies to Black Friday), it may take up to a week! It’s incredibly frustrating, so again, I urge you wait two weeks after July 11, if you plan on buying anything on Amazon.

With the one-year anniversary of the ROG Ally coming up in June 2024, Asus will be announcing a new version of the ROG Ally, named ROG Ally X. It is not a full upgrade, but a mid-cycle refresh.

Weekend Gamer Update: Memorial Day Weekend

vusleeper May 28, 2023

It’s Memorial Day Weekend, which means I have this Monday off and it’s a long weekend for me. As usual with these holidays, there are a lot of sales and deals all across retailers. I’m planning on going to a few Half-Priced Books to take advantage of their 20% instore purchases. The problem with HPB is that their stocks are limited and are vastly different from store to store. You never know what you are going to see, day to day, store to store.

Weekend Gamer: Gamer Unlock and StarCraft II

vusleeper November 20, 2017

I recently signed up for Best Buy’s Gamers Unlocked membership, which costs $30 for two years. This is a similar program to GameStop’s Elite Pro Membership ($30 a year), only Best Buy’s program is more appealing thanks to its 20% off all new games (GameStop’s discount only applies to used games) and cheaper membership pricing.

Black Friday 2010

vusleeper November 24, 2010

It's that time of the year: Black Friday, this Friday! It's tradition, I'm heading out in the bleak morning of Black Friday to these stores: Best Buy, Target, and Wal-Mart. It seems the big thing this year are big LCD or Plasma television. I am not in the market for a new TV, but some of these prices ($400 for a 40 inch 1080p sounds really cheap) makes it hard to not buy it.
