I got a DVD player!!!

I got a gift card to Target for Christmas from my niece. I bought a DVD player for $38!!!! Her mom said she was going to call me later tonight, expecting me to be cussing and swearing up a storm, trying to figure out HOW to install it. Well, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah. It took 3 seconds. Piece of cake!!!! Unlike the VCR's of yester year.

I also bought a DVD for $9, "Where the Heart Is" with Ashley Judd. I'm going to watch it tonight, complete with popcorn, wine and nuts.

Woohoo!! I'm now technologically up to date!!!

Whooohoooo!! Enjoy your new dvd player! You are going to love it!;)

Way to go Donna If you look around our walmart has some old movies for a dollar on dvd. I also have found some older tv shows ,ossie and Harriet , Petticoat junction,and the lone ranger the begining . for a buck it sure is great to visit some old mermories.

Yeah. You are really going to like it! Enjoy it! I'm glad to hear that you got one for so cheap. 38 dollars is so cheap! Thats GREAT!

I was thinking about that when I saw a DVD/Video player a Costco for like $120.00. It was a really good one, like Phillips or something. Hmmm...maybe I should get it for her.

It had better be as easy at Donna's. I don't like things that don't work!!!

lol,
I found one for 47 dollars and it has more buttons than the space shuttle.:rolleyes:

Yeah! Congrats Donna! Andy and I went out shopping today and I bought clothes! (I hate clothes shopping) One store was going out of buisness and I cleaned house! :D :D

Nuts Donna?! You are what you eat dear. ;) :p :D

Walmart also has them DVD's for $5.

Kelly you could try www.columbiahouse.com or I bought some videos at Walmart.

cool beans Donna!!
ENJOY!

Hi, Donna! Welcome to the 21st century! One thing about DVDs is that you don't have to rewind them! What brand did you get? I paid $29.00 for mine. Not exactly a well known name, but it works fine!

The brand is Cyberhome. Never heard of it, but I don't care. I probably won't use it much anyways. That's probably why my VCR lasted so long! At least now when I go into Blockbuster, they won't laugh at me and whisper behind my back. "Pssst, here comes THAT lady again, looking for videotapes. When is she gonna get a grip??"

Maybe NOW I can finally rent National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation!!

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Are you talking about the Christmas Vacation with Uncle Eddie or the Original one! They made a new one with uncle eddie which is really funny!

Donna don't dispair my daughter and I each still have "oh gasp" Beta players and over 100 beta tapes..Hubby is now putting them to dvd from his computer so I can take up less space. some of them were when you couldn't by them only came out to rental places. Lots of disneys if any one wants any e-mail me and I'll send you a list.
