I always look forward to this thread on here but didnt see one this year? What is everyone scoring? I need nothing but am planning on picking up another TV for the garage. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B7CLH7RW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
I took a look this morning and it seems to me that Prime Day is really just another day and the deals are not that great. Yes, there may be some deals, but I just don't buy because something is on sale unless I really need it or want it.... sales tactic IMHO

Interestingly enough, a few things I had bought before are on sale, and the prices are marked up. For example, just a few months ago, I bought an Eero Pro6e. I paid $204. Now, they are advertising it as $249 on sale for $179. Granted its still cheaper than when I bought it, it seems they hiked the price just to discount it.

Not a prime member cause I don't buy much on Amazon. Was going to order a bimini top yesterday and held off cause I needed to take some measurements, go to look at it today and its $50 more expensive due to prime, though Prime members can but it for $10 less than yesterday. Screw Prime day, I'll wait a few days til the mark it down to the previous price......

i cant handle 55+ surprises....


yea man, so I had to cancel my Seattle trip due to my dad being laid up in a Glasgow hospital with covid, but hes gotten the thumbs up to get out of there tomorrow. So gonna fly him home Thurs hopefully.

My big trip is in a couple of weeks. Jumping on the Harley and heading to Flathead Lake MT, gonna spend a week up there in an AirBNB, visiting some friends, checking out Glacier, then heading down into Yellowstone then Tetons, and back home through the UT mountains.

I'm super stoked for that one.

What temperatures are those good up to? Havasu can be hard on outdoor cameras.
my ring cameras (spotlight) and several "stick up" cameras in both havasu and cave creek are over 2 years old...no issue outside. I did mount the battery powered ones under eves so they would have less direct sun exposure..but other than that no issues or battery life loss so far.

My wife was bugging me for one of those massage guns. "No, not that kind." So I got one for her. I think she may pick up a toothbrush she wants too. Nothing exciting.



Can’t beat this deal…

Bought myself a new Kindle Fire 8 HD Plus, to replace my VERY old Fire. I think with the charging dock and cover, it was around 40% discount. Or maybe I got screwed. I dunno. 😂

I bought these to use for my riviera slip so I can keep my black ones in the boat.. I still use the standard dock lines for spring lines.

FYI 50% of yeti ramblers... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0842S5H2P?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

These fit every size can and bottle, and have a silicone base that does not fuck up your boat. Blows the Yeti away.

These are $20 at Costco if they have them in stock.

You can still use this massage gun for extra curricular activities by placing your finger on the end of it and blasting it at max speed.

These work that good? I have a UE Mega Boom that is decent but always down to buy something better.
Yes. Buy two, link them and set them on either side of your seating area and the listening experience will blow you mind. I wanted to buy two, but im not a baller.

JBL has them on their site for the same price. Looks like the sale ends the same time as primes
