Oops </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415508 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 17:10:17 +0000 Bao 415508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got the 3 babylegs for $12 with free shipping and thought that was a GREAT deal. DH went out Friday and got some DVD's, Disney books and a coat for himself...not too much this year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415458 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:55:53 +0000 betsyboop 415458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: Awesome! I got my stroller at Pish Posh Baby too, and was so pleased with them. REALLY fast shipping. Enjoy your (I mean, your baby's) stroller! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415425 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:30:35 +0000 wheres_c 415425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: yeah if it wasn't for the zoom noise would have kept the Sony but it drove me bonkers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415421 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:27:33 +0000 shopaholic 415421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelingbrit: Thanks for the links and reviews! Will email them to DH since it's what he's been wanting since we found our we're pregnant! But the zoom noise thing would drive me bonkers probably, but it's up to him. And no, I wasn't thinking $400 range, so probably a $200-ish one would be good. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415418 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:27:03 +0000 MrsBrewer 415418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! At Boston Store I had a $50 off a purchase of $100! I bought 2 pairs of DKNY jeans (that were originally $80 on sale for 44) and 2 pairs of socks. The total came to $101.88 so with the coupon I spent just $50.94 on 2 pairs of nice jeans and socks!! yay!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415411 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:25:14 +0000 wheres_c 415411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: We don't have a huge budget for a camera so the two we purchased were on the lower end of the price scale.</p> <p>The first: Canon Vixia HF R300<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Vixia-Memory-Camcorder-Advanced/dp/B006UMMP2I" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Vixia-Memory-Camcorder-Advanced/dp/B006UMMP2I</a></p> <p>So far in testing, video quality is great, and camera seems to be well constructed. No noise when zooming or pressing buttons. Has horrible battery life reviews, but the package we bought from Costco ($249) came with an extra extended life battery.<br /> The extended battery took about 3 hours to charge, but was still running after an hour and a half (when my memory card died) It had 1 bar left.</p> <p>The second: Sony HDR-CX190<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HDR-CX190-Definition-Handycam-Camcorder/dp/B006K551HQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1353964843&#038;sr=1-2&#038;keywords=sony+camcorder" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HDR-CX190-Definition-Handycam-Camcorder/dp/B006K551HQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1353964843&#038;sr=1-2&#038;keywords=sony+camcorder</a><br /> Video quality was about the same as the canon, but anytime I used the zoom, you could hear the zoom noise recorded onto the video. I didn't like that. It also didn't have a touch screen and seemed more cheaply constructed.<br /> The battery only took an hour to charge and still had 3 bars left when my memory card died at 1.5 hours.</p> <p>My guess is there's probably a few better options out there if you're willing to spend closer to $400, but we had a max of $250 to spend. I think we're going to return the Sony and keep the Canon. I don't like the fact that we may not get a lot of battery life out of it, but at this point in time we're going to be using it for short family videos. When it comes time for recitals/soccer games/etc we'll upgrade to something better.</p> <p>If you have a bigger budget than us, I'd suggest to look around a little more, but if your budget is less than $250 or you're ok with only an hour to an hour and a half of recording at a time then the canon is a decent choice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415361 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 15:58:48 +0000 mrs. wagon 415361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: eeeee!! yayyy!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-any-black-fridaycyber-monday-deals#post-415359 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 15:58:16 +0000 shopaholic 415359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travelingbrit: Which ones (camcorders)?
