Amazon.com $75 credit, what to buy?

JDMDrifter · #1 12-03-2003, 09:07 PM

Well, I have been informed by my mother that I will be getting a $75 credit on amazon.com from my grandparents for Christmas. However, I have no experience with them and have no idea if they have any good stuff. About the only thing I've seen there that I might buy would be the Toys R Us SuperSlicks, but I find it difficult to spend that much on a car like that, especially because I would have to buy three of them and I'd still have money left over. Plus, I'm already getting one for Christmas. Are there any other good things on Amazon I could buy with $75?

Books.

Really, good books are hard to put down.

Ya there are some good books out there. Such as the "Life of Pie (Not real pie but as in 22/7, pie).

what does this have to do with XMods??? we have different forums for different topics. we have a Miscellaneous Discussions forum for this type of thing. we need to keep these forums organized so please, in the future, post in the appropriate forum

Until this forum gets moved,
Any hard to find Aphex Twin CDs...

go with Yatofosi and get underground u can get body kits performance upgrades and paint almost every part of the car. The only regret I ever had about it is that I could have gotten an xmod instead

I'm sorry for posting in the XMods section, I was there at the time I thought about it so I didn't think to post it somewhere else. Please move it(I can't do that, right?).

Also, I already have NFS: Underground, so I guess I'll just buy CDs, I forgot about that.

EDIT: Don't think of me as someone who never reads, but we already have literally thousands of books, and probably at least a hundred about cars and the like.

Amazon is a great company.

I'd probably blow it on rechargeable batts, an upgraded charger, etc. And some books. :-)

SonicKuz · #13 12-13-2003, 07:07 PM

oh yeah I forgot about that. THey have good rechargers and batteries.

JDMDrifter · #14 12-13-2003, 07:07 PM

Batteries...never thought of that...

SonicKuz, this may sound stupid but I've never heard of Aphex Twin...what kind of music is it?

SonicKuz · #15 12-13-2003, 07:14 PM

Oh don't feel stupid. Most people don't know what it is, even though they may have seen the name in a few places. I guess an easy description would be intelligent dance music, but its really unusual and appeals more to electronica fans and geeks if you ask me. Look it up on Amazon.com, you'll see a bunch of albums and a bunch of reviews for each, since most sound pretty different.

He has a pretty big cult following. Like with any cult following, usually you love it and become obsessed, or you don't. Not everyone is going to get it.
