One of my many favorite burger joints in chicago is Jeff's Red Hots. My favorite combo is the #1 which is a double cheeseburger with fries and a drink for $5.99.

 NO MORE GOING THROUGH A DRIVE-THRU AND GETTING A BOTTLED WATER!

I would post my favorite burger joint, but unfortunately i have given that up for Lent. =( So stay tuned because after Easter mass this girl is going straight to my favorite place and getting a CHEESEBURGER WITH CHEESE FRIES AND LARGE CHERRY COKE! Wish me luck cause I have 10 days left and I can eat burgers, fries, cookies, cake, chips, soda, oh my, and all the great junk food I can find. Yes I did give all that up for Lent!

The clear best deal is Walmart especially with the combo of the Blu-ray 3D. Great deal! Definitely the place to get this exciting new release.

Justin Timberlake CD "20/20 Experience": Super, super excited for this  cd! Can't wait to jam to it at the gym. So lets see where to get this bad boy!

Easy to see where to get this cd, Target! A great price and bonus songs w/Mr. Timberlake, No question about it! I'm sold!

Zero Dark Thirty: I have to admit this is one movie I have yet to see. I know, I know. But it is definitely a new movie I am adding to my collection. From the movie reviews to the opinions of friends that have seen it, it is definitely worth watching.
                   *Barnes and Noble
                  -$40.99 w/40% off=$24.69  Blu-ray+dvd
                  -$30.99 w/40% off=$18.60 Dvd+digital copy

Ok for this one it's close. If you have a reward zone card from Best Buy definitely go there and get your points. Remember if your a Barnes & Noble member you will recieve an additional 10% off the already 40% discounted price with your purchase. It'll honestly just save you a couple of cents. If all that doesn't matter just go to whichever store is closer to you. Girl power! LOL. I'll post a review of this film in a future post and let you guys know what I thought about the film.
 

Les Miserables: I loved this movie! Even though it has been remade so many times and I still have yet to see it on broadway I thought the movie was a fresh perspective. I mean the actor sang live as they filmed the movie. No lip synching. Now if you can do better in that moment great, but I think this movie says a lot about each actor in the film and Ms. Hathaway deserved that Oscar. So here we go.
                  *Barnes and Noble
                  -$34.99 w/30% off=$24.49 Blu-ray+dvd+digital copy
                  -$29.99 dvd
                 *Best Buy
                  -$19.99 Blu-ray+dvd+cd+uv copy+steelbook
                  -$16.99 dvd
                 *Walmart
                  -$18.96 Blu-ray+dvd+digital copy+cd w/20 songs
                 *Target
                  -$24.99 Blu-ray+dvd+digital book+postcards
                  -$22.99 Blu-ray+dvd+digital copy
                  -$16.99 dvd
For this new release it's a tie between Best Buy and Walmart. Like I've said before see which fits better in your budget or what extras you want. Example you want a copy of the book then buy it at Target. For me personally I will get it at Best Buy. I will get my movie, film, and points all in one.
 
This is 40: I didn't know this film was being released this week, but I'm so happy it is. I did get a chance to see it in theaters and couldn't stop laughing! Definitely a must see especially for those of us who are going through a different stage in our lives. I know I am. And this film definitely made me the upside of soon turning 30.
