Large Purchases

[Meya]

hummmm, its pretty cool. I might try to purchase something form them. Something cheap for starts.

Meya, you can use your regular bank issued debt card. via/checking account. I only use my own money for the flex pay so i don't have to pay any interest!

yes, debit card is the way to go and that is the only that I pay as well. I just add it to my budget.

I purchased my treadmill w/TV on it (2007), for $999 no tax, free ship on ShopNbc, with 5 value pays, I love it! I just had my king mattress set delivered from HSN in early July 2008, I did go and try it out at a store first to make sure i wouldn't have to send it back, but it too was a good purchase $999 w/5 flex pays, and white glove delivery, they took away my old set! I blame my mom she is the QVC queen, (prefers them to HSN) for my tv shopping habit, hence my nickname "flatbroke"!

Girl don't you just love the flex pays and free shipping

[flatbroke]

Girl flex pay, value pay, easy pay, shoot...I'm waiting for them to say no pay! I love it though, that way I can enjoy my "stuff", and after 30-60 days decide, if I don't want that "stuff" to return it for some new "stuff".

flatbroke, which treadmill do you have? I have the Norditrac View Point 3000 which has the 7" cable/ DVD-ready built-in flat screen TV and Interplay™ Music Port you can connect the MP3 player of your choice to listen to your favorite tunes during your workouts. It also has the connections for video, but I dont see any use for that. I hooked up cable in my garage so that I can watch tv, but I find myself getting dizzy when i look at it. I love mines to, have not one problem with it yet and it has done wonders for me. Here are some pics of if from side view and front view.

Meya your treadmill is fabulous you go girl

[Meya]

Thanks!

Gurl look, I don't mean to change the subject, but I watch some horrible things happen on that treadmill. My husband was mad at one of his friends because he think he had stole something from him right. So he got the man drunk and bet he could not run a 12 (mph) on the treadmill and the dude went for it. I got out of the way because I knew what was going to happen. Girl, he started running and leaning to one side saying "Woooooooooooe" and fell clean into the wall behind him. I told my husband he is going to hell for that, and he replied "When judgment day comes, I am standing right beside him when I hear God tell him about he sins he committed, when my [stuff] starts to come up, we is going to hell together rumbling"

My goodness, how much payback does he have to pay because I thought it was enough when he lied and told the boy that he got some new shaving cream he uses and wants him to try it out. He got the man drunk again, put a TCB super relaxer on the man head, and "face", and was laughing and talking with him. I did not know what was going on , but when he said "Man this stuff smell like a perm! Hey Meya, don't yall women be hollering when that perm starts to burn? Man, I see how yall feel now" That is when I went upstairs and noticed my moms perm box was gone. I told the guy to wash that stuff out of his head now and my husband took the water hose and sprayed it out of his head. I could not help from crying when the guy was rubbing his head with the towel saying, "Man this stuff don't work, why I still got hair in certain places?" I cant type no more Kmoney, I got tears in my eyes now. The beard is what made me cry, he was slick to a can of oil.

Here it is, Meya. I love that your has the dvd built-in, I connect my dvd player to the ports on the front, and this one connects to the web to track your workouts. I used to weigh 400lbs, and once I finally hit 300lbs, then I got one for home use, and this one comes with shocks, so not a lot of impact to the knees.

[hjm331]

Flatbroke got the whole package. It's not a treadmill, it's a spaceship.

[Meya]

Shocks! That seems like a whole lot better than mines. I have to slide the bar to adjust the impact on my knees, which I don't see a difference to it anyway. I like yours, it is heck of cool. I see your fan looks like it hits hard. Mines does not have the opening yours have, if you can look at my pic, it is above the TV and it is straight across. I use the fan sometimes but I like the sweat that I create. Do you use the incline? When I try it, it makes my lower back hurt and my knees hurt.

I am so proud of the fact that you have taken 100lbs off of yourself. I know the feeling of being over weight, I started out with a max of 180 after having my first child and went to 311 with my last child. In May 2008 I went to 322 and I was like ....ohhh heck NO so I went on a diet along with aerobics and lost 42 lbs so far (280). I have exactly 100 more to go and I will be back at 180. I gots to be thick, I need my curves back I can not do the upside down triangle booty thang no more. ...........put it like this, let's start us a weight loss thread THAT I THOUGHT KMONEY WAS HOOKING UP!

We got some things to talk about and I am hoping for some menu's to share with each other to keep it going. If you want to start the thread go right ahead, just put it in the lounge and I know it will grow.

Thanks Hjm and Meya, if you're going to be broke, do it with top-quality items! That way you can enjoy yourself while you're stuck in the house with no money! Meya I was thinking the same thing about yours girl, it's pretty hot for machinery...

Hjm it is the mothership, I can run on that treadmill, it really is gym-quality up to 300lbs. I do use it for the incline Meya, it goes up to a 10 incline, and it is quick in increasing the speed and the incline.

BTW, I started the weight thread, hope to see some good response.

[Meya]

You are good! I cant do the incline. I am all over the new thread you started.
