How Do I Do Cyber Monday?
By watching War Games on Netflix. Would you like to play a game?– WOPR Gotta love seeing the old school tech in action and the youth of Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy. I have to guess this 1983 movie was remastered since it looked decent on an HD television. The picture wasn’t pixelated or cropped […]
How Does Nike and Adidas Do Cyber Monday?
They release three shoes… all on the same morning, all with some level of demand. There are two Air Jordans with a metallic gold color, one in the OG high silhouette and the second is a mid with lots more gold accents. Adidas and Kanye West, on the other had, are re-releasing the Yeezy 500 […]
How Does Starbucks Do Cyber Monday?
How does a coffee shop participate on a buying day affectionally known as Cyber Monday? By offering a BOGO purchased through your “cyber” device (aka your mobile phone). I’m not sure if every Rewards member automatically gets this promotion, but I’m guessing so.
Black Friday Morning at Ala Moana
Stopped off at Ala Moana at 7am on Black Friday, and it was surprisingly empty, very empty. The lighting of the still-rising sun was nice. Walking through the mall was mellow but colorful. While I was there, I had to do the obligatory escalator check. Were they all in service? Most were. Stores were ready […]

Wait… Bed, Bath, and Beyond is still in Hawaii? I had thought they closed all their locations, but they have a Black Friday ad in the Star Advertiser. And yes, the Pearlridge/Aiea location formerly known as Circuit City is still home to the last Bed, Bath, and Beyond in the 808 state.
Hello, Black Friday?
Is this thing working? Sadly due to COVID and all its social distancing restrictions, Black Friday shopping doesn’t feel like Black Friday shopping. Sure, online sales have already started earlier in the week and more specials are inbound, so maybe the frenetic craziness of BF shopping may actually happen. In any case, hope you had […]
The Vanishing Playstation 5
It’s simply amazing how fast the new Sony Playstation 5 sells out. No matter the vendor, no matter the venue, and no matter what time of day – the PS5 vanishes seconds after releasing. Today, Walmart advertised that they would be restocking the PS5 for an early Black Friday. I refreshed the product page for […]

Peach Crown Royal Is a Thing?
I wouldn’t know, but it seems like the limited edition peach-flavored Crown Royal is ver popular and very hard to find. I guess there was a release in February 2020 and that was it for the year? Intrigued…
Oh Deer!
Who else got stuck on the Playstation 5 restock on Walmart today?
No Hot Wheels Today
I was wondering why the site was so slow this morning. Hopefully, I can get one or two of these Chargers next week!
