    Cheap Unlocked Phone - Questionable Web Site

    That website appears to be some bad ebay knock-off. And those prices are way too low, I'd steer clear.

    iPod Touch recommendations?

    I picked up an iPhone 3GS 8gb from Game Stop for $179 that was in near perfect condition, just lightly scratched on the back. I've been using it with my AT&T prepaid.

    sound system

    There are some good reviews on the 5.1 speaker set from monoprice.com. It's only $84 but you'll need to buy a receiver separately. http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=109&cp_id=10906&cs_id=1090601&p_id=8247&seq=1&format=2

    Retail Employee Stories Part 7: "I'm Not Supposed To Be Here Today!"

    I have to agree with ZombieToast, it's called a gratuity for a reason. You tip based on the service you receive, crappy service=no tip or a small tip. Great service= great tip. There seems to be this belief that you must tip servers no matter what and at least 18%.

    KMart and Sears to shutter 100 - 120 stores

    The only saving grace for Kmart is they own almost all the properties the stores are on. This saves them a lot of money. Sears had the smarts to become an anchor store at tons of malls and also owning the property or signing long term, low cost leases.

    Hooking up Xbox Hard Drive to PC for backup

    How about using a thumb drive to transfer stuff? Or a usb external HD. Or you could just buy a used cable from gamestop and return in the 7 day window. That's what I did, the sales clerk even told me to do it that way.
