How come the prices for Xbox 360 Elite are going down?
Q. I've checked 4 sites and they are Walmart, Toys'r'us, Bestbuy, and Futureshop. All of there prices are the same at $350. Could it be that its Canadian sites, or microsoft planning to sell out there Elites because they produced too much and arent selling OR a new Xbox is coming out?

A. I guess it's just normal for all goods. Over time, what usually happens is the prices of all goods will gradually depreciate. Or, they could just be possibly lowering the price as no one is buying something at such an expensive price. I bought my Xbox 360 Elite last year for Christmas for $550 - living in Australia. I know that too, over here the prices are a lot more cheaper now as to when I bought it. Project Natal's probably coming out sometime as well, so maybe they're making some preparation for that.


Why do Katie Couric, et al conduct a telethon for retailers?
Q. Another holiday shopping season is upon us, and that can mean only one thing: TV news anchors reminding consumers that the nation's retailers are COUNTING on us to spend spend spend, otherwise they won't have as profitable a year as they had hoped.

Every year, it's the same damn thing. Dan Rather, Peter Jennings and Tom Brokaw did it as well. They've turned themselves into Sally Struthers for Toys R Us.

Has anybody else noticed this shilling for retailers?

A. For the same reason that every TV show in the ABC sphere is pushing that AUSTRALIA film--they have an INTEREST in parting you from your money by selling you a product.

The networks are part of conglomerates that sell crap to people. These networks are owned by major corporations that make everything from refrigerators to guided missile systems. They own theme parks, auto manufacturers, you name it--they have their dirty fingers in every pie.

News isn't news anymore--it's a corporate product.

Read the paper and watch cartoons instead....honestly, you'll probably be better informed.

Q. toys r us doesn't have any... nor does k-mart! =[

A. There is no such things as triops from the sea. They live in inland clean waters free of salt.
You can buy triops, American species, at Walmart.

Toys R Us sell triops American species called 'Aquasaurs' or triassic triops.
I've been to America before and there has been another product called 'triops test tube' or somthing like that. They can be bought at the 'Discovery Channel' store.
You can buy triops at other educational stores as well.
There is an Australian species of triops called, in a retail name, 'BillabongBugs'.
You can order triops off ebay.
The Billabongbugs can be ordered from 'www.billabongbugs.com' in the products section.
