Adam, Nate and I headed south yesterday to visit some suppliers. On the way back today the boys were a little tired, they just looked so cute that I thought I would share it with you all

Give them grief!

Happy Halloween!

Friends,

June is upon us, bringing with it barbecues, diminished chances of snow in Minnesota and (hopefully) a slew of lightning storms leaving a wide wake of zapped power supplies (remember to upsell that Digital Converter Box while that customer is in the shop –just 11 days away!)

We’ve decided to celebrate the aforementioned happenings by offering a 20% discount on all TOSHIBA and RCA parts.  No discount code required -–we just plain marked ‘em down.  Browse our site by brand, model, or part number to take advantage of this sale, which lasts all the way through mid-month.

Head over to www.shopjimmy.com/blog to keep up with other SJ happenings.  Sure, there’s not a ton there right now, but we want your input on what we can better use this space for!

Do you want to see:

· A repair shop featured bi-weekly?

· The newest models we stock parts for?

· Product reviews?

· TV/HD industry news?

· Profiles on your favorite ShopJimmy customer service agents?

Send us your suggestions to adam@shopjimmy.com if you’re so inclined.

Thanks for your continued support.

Here’s super nerd committed company man Jimmy V running not one, but two netbooks on the plane en route to sunny San Diego.  If you think it’s bad now, just wait for in-flight wifi.   Can I get a bigger tray table?
