well, i am one lucky SOB

I went to Fry's - and their "sale" in the store was $109 and a $30 mail in rebate, so i was ticked... the online price @ Outpost.com (Fry's counterpart) was $89 with a $30 MIR so $59 total...
the guy at Fry's was an idiot, he wouldn't match his own online price! so my buddy and I left (nice 40 minute drive for nothing!) and ended up grabbing lunch and stopping by CompUSA just for fun...
cool thing is that I saw the Sonata there for $129, and I asked the Service guy if he could match the Outpost price - and HE DID! $89 for the case and he GAVE me a $30 giftcard for CompUSA

WOOHOO!!!
now - onto finding a good Deal for the
