                            I mean, $100 bucks at Best Buy is like $35 at actual market prices. I'd need at least a $200 gift card.

                                    My ex and I scored 5 at the thrift for $5 each. I'll never understand paying retail, and especially for coffee makers. I did pay "full" price for my Amazon French press. Whatever.
