Is it just me or is the price of electronics and electronic gadgets becoming increasingly affordable? Every weekend when we are out shopping (more window shopping than spending) I can't believe how low things have become. We were out last week and glanced at some digital camcorders and I thought they would have been prices for a lot more than what they were in the store we were in. You can pick up an HDD camcorder for well under $500. I remember way back when a friend payed nearly three times that for something not near as compact and obviously not near as advanced video wise.
What's the point? The point is that enjoying a little gadget treat for those that have put away or find themselves with a little left over isn't a major purchase as it once was. Sure $500 is a big squeeze for most of us but not as crazy as having to shell out well over $1,000 like we did in the past. The economic crunch has it benefits.
