We have a family business of hardware manufacturing in India and are now looking to expand our business in USA.

That's why I leave my wallet in the car!

Installation is $75/window in quantity in the Raleigh area (2 installers gave me that number) and the window (solid state hardware) itself was about $130.

BP, REI, CI and other locations provide just as good of content with people who are doing deals, doing work, but who aren't trying to separate you from your wallet.

I've had central A/C units torched through bars/cages and stolen to all my new doors and hardware pulled off every doorway taken in minutes in these areas.

Stay away from the “guru” sales-pitch events - they rarely increase your investment knowledge, they merely empty your wallet!

I make sure all my new purchases are within 30-45 minutes of my house and within 1 mile or two max from a hardware store. 

It's been a tremendously helpful experience but quite the drain on the wallet.

@Steve Babiak , I give gifts back to BP almost each and every day by staying active on the forums ;) But I'd be happy to give out a little slice of some bitcoin as a gift to anyone on this post who'd like some, to continue on the holiday spirit...Go on blockchain.info and click on wallet to sign up for a bitcoin wallet easily..

My only concern with that is most seasoned investors will be in line already at these auctions plus their wallets will go deeper than mine so I might just be wasting my time in going.
