I just robbed the internet.

So I've had a pretty wonderful day on the internet today, and I feel like a thief. Despite being completely flat broke, I have had the fortune of procuring these items this weekend online.


  1. Samsung Sync phone. My contract with AT&T (boo) needs to be renewed, meaning I'm due for an upgrade. A word to the wise: Always upgrade through Amazon.com. In the store, this would cost me $120, and with rebates, maybe down to $50. Online, this phone cost me precisely one penny because I was renewing my contract or some shit. Free two-day shipping too. Before anyone asks (which they won't, as a matter of fact) I do know a lot about this phone beforehand. A buddy of mine has it, and I've seen videos of its functionality. It features video (including streaming TV), an MP3 player that I will almost certainly use not even once, and a camera that takes such crystal clear pictures that it would make a baby cry and say, "Waaa, too crystal-clear." I feel like I just screwed AT&T out of a little money, and we all know them fuckers deserve it.
  2. USB data cable for the phone. Usually these are about $15-$20, but I found one for $0.02 on eBay with $4 shipping. (Man, I'm good.) It also comes with a CD with 10,000 graphics on it and some ringtones, as well as the software to actually manage the phone.
  3. Three Cowboy Bebop CD's, which only cost me $5 each. Those shits are impossible to find for reasonable prices (or so I thought) but I guess I lucked out. They're in brand-new condition too. Ah, I love the Seatbelts.
  4. A new power plug for my laptop. Alright, I cheated a bit; my dad bought that for me. Hopefully this one won't catch fire, which is kind of important to me in buying appliances.
So yeah, with all the bargains I lucked into this weekend I feel like I just robbed the internet. I'm a happy panda today.
