So yea... Today, I made the biggest impulse buy in a looooooong time...

My sister wanted to go the Apple store because she ordered the new 4G Nano from Apple.com and wanted to see it in person. I was planning on buying a Nano too, but a couple of weeks later. In a matter of 5 minutes of going to the store, I was at the register with this

Somehow, my sister managed to talk me into buying a Touch instead of a Nano and use every dollar sitting in my wallet. I walked out of the store with this look on my face: icon_neutral.gif Then after I realized I am now broke: icon_eek.gif

It's still syncing right now. It's the first iPod I've owned in almost 3 years... Should be an interesting change...

Impulse buys are so evil. As they always seem to get me.

Another good impulse buy? Hmmm.... OZ products? :P

And so far, I'm loving this thing, so high tech and light weight... I'm actually going to return it and get the 16 GB so I don't have to fight for space constantly...

Pics of the iPod, but not your sister? haha

Thats cool man, you'll really love the touch. Hint: Air Hockey is a nice game.

Last week I bought 5 brand new iPod Nano's from the Apple Store in San Francisco. Not for me though. They are all gifts for Chinese suppliers who make Oznium's marvelous LED products. I suppose they were an impulse buy since I hadn't had the idea until I was about 20 minutes away from the store.

Impulse travel: Upon waking up one dreadful day in late May, I planned a short hike with a friend, but unfortunately the weather was terrible. This made me unhappy. So I went online to Kayak.com, and searched for air tickets to Maui, Hawaii. Bought a one-way first class ticket, threw some stuff into a small bag, and in less than two hours I was on my way to the airport.

My PT was an impulse buy... Can't say I'm disappointed, either.

I could have sold you my iTouch, 8gb for 175.

Used once, no music on it, just some apps cause I wanted to see how it worked. Still has protective screen on it and everything!

I like the 80gb iPod classic WAYYY better.

Good to see they went to the old style nano though. I heard nothing but bad things about the 3rd gen.

So far I'm loving this thing... The App store is awesome, the screen is huge, the external volume controls, and the speakers are awesome on it... Not to mention how thin and light weight this thing is icon_razz.gif
