oh what a surprise!!

my newest toy

after mass yesterday, eric told me that we will be stopping by best buy store to check out our gifts for my BILs. while in the store, i always manage to stop my the camera station to check and play with the dslr's.

while playing with one, i saw that it was on sale, less $35..so from $699 it will only be $664 but with sales tax it will ended up $720.44. and to my amusement eric told me "kunin mo na" that time i was very shock..i was not prepared for it.. i know i've been telling him about this camera and that i would really enjoy to have one of this...

for a moment i declined to get it...i told eric that i don't want it and that i'm ok with my sony cybershot (even though i'm having some problems with it. read it here) but y husband insisted that i get it and that it will be his christmas gift for me!! i told him i really want the camera but i want to do some research on some other stores, for they might have a better deal.

so here we are at the parking lot of best buy..using our iPhone to search different stores for their deals for canon rebel xti. and he found ritz camera. and all theh major electornics and camera store here in LA, they have the best deal. so we went to the store to check it out!!

while driving to the store, i was really contemplating if i should let my hubby buy it... it's because knowing that once i buy it will be entering an expensive hobby but i am really interested in learning more about photography...hhhaaayyy....

my heart was pounding...can't take my smile away from my face...eric got me the camera!!

for a total of $898.45 (37K pesos) heres what i got:

• canon Rebel xti body camera
• canon 18-55mm lens
• canon 75-300mm lens
• lexar 2gb memory card
• tamrac camera bag
• canon photography classes (pero next year pa yung next sessions, plus ok daw na dalawa kami ni eric mag-attend)
• plus free canon pixma mini260 photo printer (out of stock so we did not get it..next week daw meron na ulit sila)
• and some perks from the store like 1 free photobook, free 20 4x6 prints, ritzpix ez print and share software and big print inkjet paper

good deal no?

kaya i'm one happy camper right now!!!
