$139 !!
You can't even buy a Speeding Ticket for that cheap any more!

Your telling me. I'm gonna have to invent something that lowers the cost of living. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

ok.. what else?
cheap DVD player that broke in a month, stolen BMX bike, used Playstation 2,

..that's just some of the crap that i've bought for ~$139..

Bubba,Andy did.. beans and rice.

Spy sunglasses and the byrd spyderwrench.
A nice pair of boots.
Ipod shuffle
casio gshock camo
milsurp rifle

Surefire flashlight
A nice wetterling or firestone axe
An evening on the town

i gotta $300 cycle jacket half off about four years ago. still wear it and get compliments. $150 of the best dollars i ever spent.

if specials don't count, you could get the AKG K240S, some pretty sweet headphones for $130. Bose triports are $139 but that's way too high a price for what you get. you're payin for the logo.

oh dur, what a fool i am to ignore the sennheiser hd580, the king of value in the audiophile kingdom!

The DogFather !!!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I remember the good Ole' days. Chinese MAK -90's were $139... Two 1200rd cases of Norinco brand ammo for $138($69 a piece). 69 and 1/2.... 30 rd mags for said gun for $139

Cant get anything for $139 these days

I picked up 3 EDI folding knives for $174 on Saturday. ATS-34, G-10 handles, and titanium liners. I also picked up 4 15 round AR-15 mags for $64. I love Gun Shows.

My first thought on the thread topic was: THE DOG FATHER!

You can get some SF's for that.
Some Peter Atwood gadgets.

Gun shows do rock! There is one coming up here in 2 weeks. The last time I was there, they had little cannons for $75.00. I plan on getting one of those anti-barbie bad boys this time around.

Also, you can get a, well, Dog Father, if you had a nice time machine.
And, do not forget, a nice ATC tomahawk, one of my personal favorites for go-to gear.

The LE scrapper 6 comes screaming into my mind. Once again, a time machine would be handy here. I alreadY have one. you all need one.

I guess you7 could get a bunch of Atwood stuff, depending on your tastes. My micro bug-out blade and prybaby ran little less than that.

chaos,chaos,
wow you been around the block! Most shooters i know reminisce about not buying enough Russian SKS's when they were only $139!

rooikat,rooikat,
what are these "little cannons"? are they like black powder -powered or something?

Yes, Tony, they are. there is alocal guy who builds repro cannons for a living. Every style, every type, every size. They all use black powder, and are all way cool.
The cheapere ones were mini tabletop type models.

They are handmade, and the cool part is he has the pics and specs of the 'real' guns at his table, so you can see how close his get. I was quite impressed.

woa.. interesting!
What is the range/penetration of one these little cannons?
hmm.. that's a neat twist on black powder.. i remember years ago you could buy black powder pistol/rifle kits over the Interweb.. build it yourself at home.

Tony - I bought a couple of SKS's - for myself and Son-in-law, and a 1440 round case of ammo, and paid $75.00 for each item some years ago! I wish that I still could!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> Tom

Yes! That's what I'm talking about! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[censored] Tom......Will you be my F-I-L....all mine gets me is cheesy truck tool sets. I have about 4 of them. I wish the man knew what a SKS was, he wanted to show me his "knives"...sort of a bonding thing I guess. It consisted of a Schrade 152, and a SAK in the shape of a fish....he was rather proud of them. He also tries to tell me how German steel is the best and I should try to collect german knives...This is based off his knowledge he attained while working in a Pawn Shop in the 70s.

LOLOL..
Gravelface, hey it's the thought that counts!

my F-I-L doesn't get me any cool stuff either.. but he DOES Feed me well! oh man the best carne asada tacos this side of East L.A.
Plus.. we like the same beer.. so that's a good combo right there!

Jason - Sorry, but you're 11 years too late! However, if we ever get together I would be proud to "adopt" you and buy you a beer or two, or six, or twelve........ <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I could get some sushi for $139.

TKC - For $139.00, I would rather rent a boat and go catch my own fish!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

TKC....you ain't lyin about that....you can run up a $100 bill without difficult...then add drinks to that.......coulda had a Dog Father!

A little over half of an INFI Street Scrapper 4. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

A couple of real good cigars that end up being just a memory

Dan

TKC,oh yeah.. with some premium wasabi right there.. easy..

I love my senneinhieser earbuds. I have the cheapest shuffle but good earbuds and I laugh at the people with the 450$ ipods and then use the 2$ apple headphones.
My earbuds are the right in your ear type and they are perfect for motorbikes as they really cut the noise. If you like headphones the Koss portapro's are good.

You can get a pair of those cool Converse assault boots.

You could pay the tax and shipping on a FBM LE

I LOVE sushi! And since I don't drink any alcohol.....yummy. I am getting hungry.

Odd, I don't like sushi, but love Beer. And I'm getting thirsty.

oh man.. that does it.. i'm gonna take the wife out to dinner tonight.. pay day!

we LOVE: tempura, sushi, teriyaki chicken, udon noodles, beef sukiyaki.. ALL that stuff!

oh man i am making myself soooo HUNGRY now!

oooh.. Jerry just made me thirsty too!

and with some Saki chasers too!

oh man.. $139 can be Spent in a HURRY! I'm tellin ya!

Ok, now I am down right starved!! YUMMY!!

alright i'm gettin the shakes here.. gonna microwave a corn dog.. BRB..
::still at work::

LOL! Yeah, I am going to start to work on my dinner soon.
Sushi IS my favorite food!

Well in right areas of town 139.00 can get you a lot.

I cannot wait until we get back into a house. Then it's time to get back to brewing my own. And I still stand by my belief that I make the best beer the world has ever known.

I like to catch sushi. In fact with my two weeks off I already told the wife that much of it will be spent fishing.

Jerry,a lot of What?
don't you mean the Wrong side of town? LOL

A lot of what? And what side of town?

And What town?

Well I didn't really want to say anything about that, but since you guys brought it up....

No sushi today..
kids wanted happy meals!
sheesh.. well at least you can't spend $139 at mcdonalds..

Who says?!?! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

well.. not in one Night at least!

Depends on what side of town the McDonalds is on! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Yea i suppose.. shoot they have mcdonalds in asia.. italy..
still.. you'd have to get a LOT of happy meals to hit $139 !

Depends on the exchange rate I suppose.

hmm.. last i checked was like ~$1.50 US to 1 Euro.
that was awhile back though..

$139 in one sitting at Mickey D's? YIKES!! The very thought made my arteries harden!!

i Do like McD's old style fried apple pies though.. mm mmm...
now they're all Baked and not as yummy.

Oddly enough the wife and I really like McDOnalds Hot Fudge sundaes. They're quite the bargain at a dollar a piece and in out opinions are better then your typical sundae from an ice cream shop.



Jerry

oh yeah.. we dig the caramel sundaes.. w/ peanuts on top.. Yummy!

those gourmet ice cream shops.. i dunno they don't really do it for me.. the kids like it for sure! but a McD's sundae does me just fine!

I am with you about the fried apple pies, those WERE so good. Now they are blah.
I totally dig a Mickey D's hot fudge sundae, with nuts on top. YUMMY!

yeah! bugs me when the GOOD stuff gets watered down.. de-flavored.
Last week i got some good 'ol Oreo cookies.. noticed they had Zero Trans Fat!? what's up with That?
i want my Money's worth!

I wish they would stop neutering our food!!

Trans fat is terrible ,you might as well put in arsenic. I am far from a health nut I even butter choclate chip cookies but transfat is evil.

Beat me to saying that Unsub! Taking poison out of food = good!

"Seriously, what can you get for $139 these day" ..The best production knife in the world?

You wud get 1,390 dimes??!?!?! ( or is that nickles, sorry but I'm not American)

Right on the yard is starting to get an international following.
You can get a massage with a happy ending from a hard working and hot russian immigrant who used to be a balet dancer at the Bolshoi.

Yeah, but there are some things that you just don't mess with in this world!

I would chose the DF no question anyway.

I had some sushi last night. It was yummy.

oh yeah.. what kind of sushi?

I had scallops, salmon, and a roll called Crazy Tuna Roll. It was our appetizer. We had the Habachi grill for dinner.

Mmm.. that sounds good!
Most of the party goes for California rolls.. buncha sissies.
But couple of us hardcore sushi eaters enjoys the Real raw stuff.

I love Salmon, yellow tail, red snapper, white tuna, scallops, sweet shrimp ( you can keep the heads.) Oh man, this is making me hungry.
