Good Deals at Super Warehouse

I had purchased a new laptop just recently. I had to do a lot of research and looking around to find that perfect laptop for a good price. It’s great that the costs of laptops are going down, but it seems like you spend less for the cheaper quality ones.

My only regret is that I didn’t find Super Warehouse sooner. It was so hard finding a laptop that could handle the work I do on my desktop at a cheap price (in case my desktop was to ever fail). I pretty much had to search for laptops that were on sale, but there weren’t many that I liked.

If I could afford Apple laptops, I would have actually considered purchasing one. But, for a lot less, I can get something faster and with a larger screen.

Super Warehouse has a very large selection of laptops. I was surprised to see some Sony VAIOs available for cheaper prices than I have seen at other online stores. See for yourself - take a look at the Sony laptop page. There is even one Sony laptop that I had looked at that has a battery life of up to 5 hours! That’s quite a long time.

Even though I was unable to use Super Warehouse to purchase a laptop, I still have a chance to take a look at their digital cameras! I like my digital camera, but it’s very old now. It’s a Canon PowerShot A20, which only features 2.1 mega pixels. The pictures don’t seem to come out as well as they did in the beginning, of course I may just be so used to seeing higher quality ones that the ones I take on my camera look horrible. I wouldn’t mind having a Nikon Coolpix.

I like that Super Warehouse provides a lot of accessories for the products they sell. I hate buying something at a store and then finding out they don’t even sell accessories for it and I have to spend time looking elsewhere.

They sell so many different products, including photo printers, Lexmark printers, printer toner, scanners and PDAs.

Besides some of the affordable prices, they also offer free shipping on many of the products. Check out some of their deals.

How to Create a Wish List on iTunes

I use iTunes to find new movies or music, but I have found that I have to add them to the Shopping Cart if I want to go back to them later. That’s probably not actually a good idea, but it worked.

After not hearing from anyone on Twitter about creating a wish list on iTunes, I ended up doing some research and found the solution on the Apple website. It doesn’t make sense that they wouldn’t create a built-in wish list though, but this workaround is better than nothing!

First, create a new Playlist in the sidebar of iTunes. If you don’t know how to do this, follow these steps:

  1. File > New Playlist (or CTRL + N)
  2. Enter in a name for your wish list (example: Wish List)

Now you have a Wish List using the Playlist feature which allows you to play previews of songs or movies from the iTunes Store.

Go into the iTunes Store and search for that awesome movie or song in the iTunes Store that you want to purchase at a later date. As far as I know, the only way this works is if you have a list appear below the Store. If you find a movie or song you like, just enter it in the search box and a list will appear with all the results. Find the one you are looking for.

After you’ve selected the one you want, just drag it over to your Wish List Playlist in the sidebar and then let go. Then if you click on your Wish List Playlist, you should see what you’ve added to it.

This is not the best solution and I think Apple should add a Wish List feature. But until that day comes, this works.

If you have a better way for adding movies or songs to a Wish List for iTunes, please leave a comment!

UPDATE: I forgot to add one other step. When you’re ready to purchase a song or movie in your Wish List, drag it from your Wish List to your Shopping Cart and it will be ready for you to purchase.
