Black Friday / Holiday Season Deals - 2014

Wow, time certainly does fly...

Thanksgiving and Black Friday are next week, so it's high time we get the yearly deals thread started for the holiday season!

Any great deals you find interesting and want to share are fair game. It's okay to go beyond GPS and to chat about items you hope to find.

Winter is HERE

Well, winter is actually everywhere sad

Now it can get pretty cold up here (-24C or -11F on Saturday), but we only have a few centimeters of snow. The media is reporting that areas around Buffalo got 5 feet of snow in one dump! The media is also reporting that there were freezing temperature in EVERY state - including Hawaii.

Yikes - it is only November! evil

Edmonton city report says, Photo radar details too sensitive for public,

The number of speeding tickets issued by the City of Edmonton to motorists driving less than five kilometres per hour over the speed limit is too sensitive for councillors to discuss in public, says a city report.

Red light camera ban hits the burbs, with lost revenue

http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2014/11/12/tra...

safety takes a back seat to revenue, tell me it isn't so.

Cities should have brain stormed better ways to generate extra money (stadium concerts, fesivals, water parks, ect) without robotic ploys to bankroll themselves.

Happy Veteran's Day

Let me be the first to through out a Happy Veteran's Day to all our vets. Without you men and women, we would not enjoy the freedom that we enjoy today. There is, and will always be, a rivalry between the services; but when it comes down to it, all vets will stand together. It is one big club and I am proud to be a part of it. God bless all the vets and God Bless America!

weaning from streets and trips

Hello, I have been a member for 15 minutes. The reason I joined is because I love Microsoft Streets and Trips, and it is no longer in business. I am likely going to move to Delorme, but what I want is on back order. Some Streets and Trips Folks provided extra POI lists, but not in cvs format. For example, Flying J/Pilot Truck centers.

So I am new, and can use any suggestions. Sue

I'm surprised....

Garmin hasn't invented a political GPS that guides some politicians through the mine fields of campaign gaffes surprised

eLoran is born

Just found out something interesting...LORAN is coming back! LORAN was the precursor to GPS and was developed and used during WWII. It seems that the English have a Plan B for their ships at sea in case GPS ever goes completely out...eLORAN.
