I'm Halfway There!
OK So I was supposed to purchase my camera bundle last night. I decided to go to best buy because around where I live we really don't have camera stores. So thru the whole day I was getting more and more anxious to get there, kept making sure I had enough money, all the bills were paid for the week ( bills have to be paid first before you can have fun right!), Etc.... Well I finally get to the store find the camera person I talked to you last week when I went in to see the prices and what they recommended for cameras. Ooo sorry forgot to mention in my first post that I was stuck between the D3200 and D5100. YAY d5100!! Anyways so I told her yes Im back and ready to purchase I know exactly the one I want and the bundle. I went for this package that was slightly already bundled and some things I threw in.
- Nikon D5100 w/ 18-55 mm Lens $549.99
- Camera bag $69.99 BUT they have a deal now if you purchase the D3200 OR D5100 you recieve the bag free
- 16 GB Class 10 memory card PNY on sale right now for $12.99 Originally $29.99 (I think so but not sure)
- 55-200 mm Lens $249.99 BUT also have a deal with the purcase of either camera again you get $100 off
Ok so I went online and found a bundle they already had set up. It was the camera and the 2 lenses for $699.99 with a 2 year warranty of $119.99 for everything. Ok your probably saying well that doesnt make any sense. WELL I will tell you why I did this... If you go into the store without the bundle I found online printed off you will pay $99.99 for 2 year warranty on JUST the camera body and the 18-55mm Lens. THEN have to pay another $49.99 for 2 year warranty on the 55-200mm lens. SO thats $30 more. I dont know about you guys but Im always a deal finder kind of girl. So of course I dont want to pay more lol So all in all I got a free bag, $100 off the extra lens, $30 off of the warranty, and like $10 off of the memory card because it was on sale. So I saved almost $140 dollars there WOOT WOOT happy dance for me. If you have any questions about the deal I made for myself please comment and I will answer.
Anyways back to the purchase. Well I get there all excited, find the girl, tell her what I want, she is looking for my camera and everything I want with it. BOOM not soo happy. THEY RAN OUT OF D5100's!!!!!!!!!! I was like WTF!! They sold their last one earlier that day! Oh man was I pissed and I made sure I showed it to. Mind you I couldnt get there no earlier then 9pm last night due to work and other things. BUT they had a weekly ad out for this so I was all bitchy when I asked why run an ad when you dont have the stock. I mean I know it wasnt her fault but come on. Anyways long story short because I could go on and on about how muc of a dick her supervisor was. All I did get last night was the 55-200mm lens, camera bag, and the memory card. FUSTRATED!! They said they will order the rest and it should be here by tomm or Saturday. So all in all Im still gettting my camera but I just didnt want to wait anymore ya know. Plus I wanted to show it off at Thanksgiving.. Who wouldnt!! lol So I will post more when I do get the rest!!
The lens I did get is amazing looking! hahaha I went right home and unboxed it right away. Had to have some fun with what I got!
