DEL.ICIO.USHave you found good cyber deals?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
If you are similar to about half of the American workforce, you are buying things online, while logged on at work.
Today is what has become known as Cyber Monday — the day consumers pound the keyboard - not the pavement - in search of good deals online.
Retailers from Amazon.com to Home Depot are offering big Web specials, and hoping more of you shop today to help overall lagging sales this year.
So, are you buying anything? If so, what are you buying? If not, why not? Also, are you buying from work? From home? Are you impressed with the deals? If so, which ones?
Rachel Tobin Ramos, a staff reporter who covers retail, may contact you for an article about Cyber Monday or you can email her at rtramos@ajc.com.
If you’ve found good deals or are looking for a hard-to-find item or suggestions, check out the AJC Twitter feed

I got a Baby Einstein Gift Set that usually sells for $49.99, for only $28 on Walmart.com. Also bought a 10MP Kodak Easyshare Camera with a 2GB card and tripod included, for only $99. Great deals!

For laptops, I’d try Overstock.com, Best Buy, Walmart, etc. Let me know if that works for you. Rachel

Dolphin, there’s an IT guy that posts on craiglist and he has some awesome deals on Dell and other brands. It also works out great if you need any help setting up or troubleshooting to buy from someone who actually knows something other than turning on the computer and the 1-800 number to customer no service.

buy.com for laptops
Refurbs are great deals.
Buy LCDs and Plasmas at Costco for the best return policy so you don’t feel any need to pay for the extended warranty.
