Way too much!

Newegg:

Canon Powershot SX 150 $149 with free case and memory card
Dragon Quest VI DS 14.99

Best Buy

Earlier this week: Bioshock 2 collectors edition $9.50

Today:

Toy story 3 Xbox 360 7.99
Pac man party Wii 7.99
Babysitting Mama Wii 9.99
3 Month live gold 7.99
Halo Reach Limited edition 14.99
Final Fantasy Crystal Bearers Wii 7.99
Go Vacation Wii 14.99

Gamestop:

Grand Theft Auto IV 9.99
Midnight Club Platinum 9.99
Perfect Dark Zero (filler for free shipping) 1.99

I tried to get more Xbox Live gold but it only let me have one.

Everyone probably knows this already but the game Go Vacation was 39.99 yesterday, its 14.99 today which is quite a drop for one day!
Babysitting mama was $39.99 last Xmas, now its down to 9.99 (probably could have done better on this one as the Target ad has it for $5 which is crazy savings on this game but meh).
I don't know why I bought Halo Reach, I guess I just wanted an expensive limited edition on my games pile, as I doubt I will even like the game (I will try it though). Or save it for someday when I actually get the hankering to play a FPS game.
 
Best Buy
Shaun White Skateboarding PS3, $2.99
Sports Champions PS3, $7.99 (I bought the Tiger Woods bundle for$50 and sold the game for $28 shipped so I need some Move games besides TV Superstars I got for $4.98 at Target)
Metroid Other M $4.99
Toahiba Blu Ray Player, $39.99 (bought on Monday during Premier Silver preview)
Charlie Wilsons War DVD $0.99, same as above

Amazon
NBA 2K12 PS3, $19.99
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory DVD, $1.99

All I was after, all I got. First time I've done any in-store BF shopping, but KMart was the only place around that had a deal on that game.

I have a Panasonic HDTV it sounds like the same one you got, you will love it trust me, as I finally upgraded in october, there is no glare and the colors are very sharp. But I still haven't given up on my CRT as its sitting in the other room hooked up to all my old game consoles, but I have to admit it does not get much use.

Still missing a couple of gifts for Christmas, but I figure I could just wait for those around then when Amazon has their deals. So far I've gotten:

MGS HD: $30
Dead Island: $30
Bioshock 2 LE: $10
Dragon Quest IV: $12
Jurassic Park Triple Combo (Or whatever it is): $22
Patrck Stump CD: $5
New Comp from Newegg: $600
Starcraft 2: $30
Final Fantasy 13 x2: $11.xx (Forgot the price, lol).

Might buy some more stuff, but still have to see. I'm very tempted to buy a PS3 but that will only make a bigger backlog that I won't get to. Battlefield 3 is also quite tempting. I might just trade in my DS at Gamestop to pick up a 3DS *IF* I can somehow find a Zelda one (which is near impossible I imagine), otherwise, I'll just wait for the Pink one to be released next year.

Edit: Decided not to get the PS3 or 3DS. The 3DS games are lacking ATM (I love RPGs, which there is only 1 or 2 at the moment) and the PS3 would just sit there.

Decided to buy some more gifts for friends:

Twilight Graphic Novels 1+2: $20
Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva: $15.99 (Figured it won't be cheaper).
How I Met Your Mother Seasons 1+2: $26.50
