Give up your


DVR

or

Microwave Oven




(if you don't have a DVR, you don't know what you are missing. To those of you that do have one, you know how hard it will be to give it up once you've had it for a while)

    Well obviously I would give up my DVR since I don't have one. Plus I could never eat without my microwave oven!!!

    I really do want a DVR-I need to be taping Britney Spears on Good Morning America right now!
    Good thing I got my mom to. Now I just have to wait until Friday to watch it.

    I like that video she does where she is nekkid in the sauna. Not because she is nekkid, I just like saunas.

    I like saunas too...Sounds nice right about now!

    DVR...don't have one anyway :happy: We wanted to get one but Directv charges way too much for High Def DVR. :grumble: It's like $300 (which you will not get back and you can't keep the equipment) and its a pretty high monthly fee too. So we decided against it. And once you have high def......you can't go back to regular picture either :laugh: :wink: So non-high def DVR is NOT an option :laugh:

    Me too! I wish we could have one because we always miss the first half of "Biggest Loser" to watch "House". But it's too expensive.

    Rent them.

    (although, I have days that it makes me :sad: . I have to run screaming from a room if someone starts talking about the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy...I have to wait for this season to make it to DVD...:grumble: )

    Kellch, here is what you do..

    Call DirecTV. Selected the "Cancel Service" option. When they ask you why you are cancelling, say "our local cable provider is providing free High Def DVRs". I promise you that you'll have your free DVR from DirecTV in a few days. Yes, there is a $10 monthy fee but you should never have to pay for the DVR itself. The key is to select the "Cancel Service" option. DO NOT SELECT THE "UPGRADE OPTION".

    writing.gif Got it! Thanks Max....I'll try that :smokin:
