So, Todd and I just won an E-bay auction (that we heard about from Craigslist). It's a local guy selling his 35" TV.
Bids started at $9.99.
By the end, they were up to $15.99.
Todd and I came out of nowhere at the last minute (seriously, there was 1 minute left on the bid), and snatched the TV for $27.99. Apparently the last guy's highest bid was $27.00.

Woot woot!
