Nintendo Wii shortage finally over

By Brenda Stokes on Friday, Mar 20th 2009 No Comments

It seems like as far back as I can remember, there have never been enough Wiis. But now, Nintendo has finally caught up with the demand–even though they didn’t do much to catch up in the first place–and the dreaded Wii shortage is no more.

Peek on sale for $50 today only

By Brenda Stokes on Wednesday, Dec 3rd 2008 No Comments

peeksaleIf you have any interest at all in the device known as Peek, then you had better get moving! Apparently, for today only you can get the handheld for just $49.95. That’s a pretty good deal, which is about $30 off of its previous asking price.

I never exactly saw the appeal of this device, especially since its one and only feature is email access. Is it trying to be an old school BlackBerry? I guess no one can really know. But if you need email and you need it now, the Peek might be for you.

The only catch here is that you’ll have to shell out $20 a month for the network access. Other than that, though, this is a pretty good deal. Again, if email is your one and only means of communication.

We’ve been talking a lot about Black Friday here on SlashGear because saving cash during the holiday season is always a nice way kick off the festivities. Plus, during this recession, it’s nice for people to get nice gifts for their family without breaking the bank. But if this is what a huge sale does to people, I’m done.

Star Wars Shop offering Black Friday savings

By Brenda Stokes on Wednesday, Nov 26th 2008 No Comments

black friday emailIf you have a Star Wars fan in your family, or you are one yourself, then you’re going to want to check out the Black Friday sale at the official Star Wars Shop. You’ll save a bunch on all sorts of items, from small toys for stocking stuffers to serious memorabilia.

It looks like you can save 10% on every item in the store. While that might not be as much as some other online sales, considering the fact this discount covers the entire stock and includes high ticket items, it’s pretty significant. So, if you’ve been holding out on a replica lightsaber or a bronzed Yoda statue, now is the time to act.

Star Wars buffs usually can’t get enough memorabilia. So if you have one in your life, you might want to seriously consider taking advantage of this sale. I mean, why wait and spend more than you have to?
