blurr vs wamu


I sitting here looking at 900 bucks ( economic stim. package), cash money. I could .... buy a 7.0 m blurr( that I really want) , or...... I could put a good chunk down on my maxxed out wamu card. I don't know what to do. The responsible adult in me ( yeah right)says to pay the credit card down and get the payments smaller.But the full blown "skycrack" addict in me is screaming "GET THE BLURRR! BIG AND GREEN AND FAST" sounds just like BEAVIS "get the blurr, get the blurr" did I mention I got a green aluminum buggy and I gotta have a big ,green, fast kite to flail myself down the beach at an even scarier speed.:D:D:D:D what to do? what to do?

GET THE BLURR :yes:

Well the whole goal behind the stimulus check was to stimulate the economy, so in essence if you bought yourself the kite, you would be doing yourself a favor and helping your fellow Americans :P

I know the responsible thing would be to put it down on the CC, but when it comes to kites, I always ask myself, if I died next week, what would I have done...

Also, I flew the 3.5 Blurr a few days ago and Holy Crap...what a kite. To say I was impressed with it would be an understatement. Soo much power for it's size and really good upwind performance! I was actually thinking about getting a 7m myself. I think you'll really love the kite.

Good luck...a tough decision indeed.

Be smart or not...I have those battles too often. those predicaments. The best thing to do is sleep on it for a few days. Trying to make a decision about whether or not to buy something is always hard when all you can think about is buying it.

good call - recently credit card companies have been jacking up interest rates on all cardholders regardless of payment histories - better to get the interest monkey off your back early so you can afford to pick up a blurr later on.



we all believe is called the expansion
