So I'm wanting to save up for home toys. I know that I will constantly be saving up for things throughout my life. Currently there are two things that I know that I would like to save up for:

$500 - $1600 - flat screen smart tv (50" at least because I plan on having this tv for at least 4-6 years) I'd prefer plasma but will get LED if I find what I'm lookin for in one.

$335 with tax - PS3 with some accessories (I've been wanting this game system for several years)

There are things that when I get back home I will purchase like a new battery and tires for my SUV. That should run me at LEAST $500. Since I already knew about this when I left I have the money for it already.

I realize that I will always have a "Fun Fund" to save for things. Even if I don't have anything to save for at the moment that will be for fun I know that sooner or later their will be something that I want. And no it won't be bought as spur of the moment if I already have the funds for it because I'm a researcher and I search for what I want and then I search for the lowest price.

I really haven't settled on a tv yet. I'd REALLY like to have a 3D Smart tv without glasses but i will settle for just a smart tv. i have netflix and hooking that up to my tv is a must because i will not pay extra for cable.
