That smilie is getting drunk.
It's just that, the only time I've gotten a game system at no expense was when my grandfather bought my family (5 kids) a Genesis as a bulk present, when I got a $50 Sega Saturn in 1999, and when I pulled my resources of Birthday and Christmas together to reduce the price of a PS2. That's right... reduce.

Re: Halfway to the Wii60!
Well, to put it simple: Work does weekly (sometimes daily) contests. If I hit certain goals, I get X amount in whats called Premiere Choice Awards (google it to see what I mean). Redeem them for certain stores. Around here, I have been redeeming for Nebraska Furniture Mart certificates recently. Got a $425 recliner that works well using some of my previous winnings. Recently got enough again to get a 360 and some of the older games until I get more. So..yeah...in a nutshell I guess thats how I am not spending my own money on it. Its what work gives me

Re: Halfway to the Wii60!

Yeah, its just not my dime I'm spending. Its the company's dime basically so I don't consider it my own money

Inbound sales for local phone company
Yes..I hate doing sales but the benefits of sales is good enough to stay until I can settle into a job that has a better career goal for me.
