HNU- Half Nekk'ed Upgrade

Woot!

I'm all about the upgrades!
last week i upgraded my truck a bit, and tonight on my way home for work i stopped by Best Buy and upgraded the fuck out of my Tech.


check this out!
(and check out the sweet ass deals)


the first upgrade was my Cell Phone
PHone closed

as you can see, my old phone was in crap shape. it's scratched, it's battered, it's old. but check out the new toy!

Phone Open
is it not sweet?

check out the deal:
normally this phone runs about $149, but i got it for $30 by exploiting a glitch Best Buy's phone upgrade plan (turns out they have to honor prices they quote you at even if they quoted you wrong. hehehe)

Next i upgraded my Headset.
No longer am i bound by cords, I'm wireless bitch!
Head Set
That's right, now I'm one of those pretentious pricks who walk around with a Blue Tooth headset on their ear at all times.
(just kidding, i would never do that, it's just not far enough into the future for me to walk around with tech strapped to my ear.)

check out the deal:
normally a Blue Tooth headset like this runs for about $50. but i got this one for about $10. And just how did i do that? well, i just happened to buy the last copy of the War hawk bundle with the free Blue Tooth headset.



"but wait," you ask your self with frustrations already building from lack of sexy in these HNT posts. "Why would you buy that game? it's a PlayStation 3 game...


I guess that leads us to my next upgrade.

PS3 bundle

OH FUCK YEAH! i finally took the leap and bought a PlayStation 3, but not just any PS3, this bitch is the Metal Gear Bundle. what's in a Metal Gear Bundle? (glad you asked)

PS3 Metal Gear Bundle Contents:
-Includes PlayStation 3 with high-definition Blu-ray Disc player, Metal Gear Solid 4 game, an 80GB HDD, a DUALSHOCK 3 wireless controller, a voucher for a free downloadable Pain game and free PlayStation Network membership
-80GB internal hard drive provides exceptional storage space for game saves, media and more
-Cell Broadband Engine state-of-the-art microprocessor is more powerful and efficient than standard single-core processors, delivering breakthroughs in fidelity and believability
-Blu-ray media stores up to five times more data than DVDs, providing a larger canvas for unbelievable graphics and unprecedented interaction; Blu-ray drive also plays Blu-ray movies for a high-definition experience with your favorite films

also, the 80GB is reverse compatible, so my old PS2 & PS1 games won't go unplayed! yay! which is good, what with the issues i've had with my old PS2.


Man i'm loving this whole "out with the old, in with the new attitude."

Wait, what's that in the mirror?

gray hair 1

What do you mean where?
gray hair 2


...so, now that my hair has betrayed my age, i hope you're not thinking of upgrading to a newer Exile.

  • I want to know how you afforded all those new upgrades!!!! YIKES!

  • tomscockwhore- how did i afford them? easy, i didn't. i got the "no interest for six months" credit cards so i can deferr payments. so for everything i'm paying about $110 bucks a month i'll have everything paided off without paying interest.

    glad you and the bf enjoyed the post, seeing as though i always enjoy your posts. hehehe

  • Welcome to the world of gray hair. I've had them for YEARS now, and I'm 28 too. Granted I've been married for nearly 8 years and have 2 kids --- so yeah, that should give you your answer.

    Also -- is it official that the PS3's will play ALL the games? I knew this was an issue when it first debuted .... has this been resolved? If that is the case, my husband may finally be able to get one (and the trade off that I get?? -- a boyfriend!! LMFAO!!!!!). Bwahahahhaa!!!!!

  • sarah- we're old. hehehe
    let me test it out for you, i'll put the answer on another blog post.
