BROWNIES ARE DONE

NEVER BUY OVER THE JUMP
When buying electronic appliances or computer parts price increases steadily up to the newer/better models UNTIL the increase is noticably larger to the next model. Always buy the model before this larger increase and you won't be sorry because of the model becoming a whole lot cheaper 2 weeks later.
