My dh's company Christmas party was last night and they gave out NICE door prizes. I missed out on the tvs and laptop, but I won a Garman Nuvi 350 GPS that retails at $450!!! **faint**

Since I rarely go anywhere, I handed it to dh and said Merry Christmas honey! He'd been wanting one; but as usual, was so busy providing for everyone else that he was still waiting to get one. So it wasn't planned, we didn't pick it out, but dh will now have one in his semi. He was grinning ear to ear.

He has a friend who has an identical one and he just loves it, so I hope dh will too.

I bought hubby the Garmin Nuvi 660. It's the top rated one with Consumer Reports. Amazon.com had it on special for $406.97 and free shipping. I just hope he likes it and it works well, and is worth the money. I'm so tired of things being obsolete quickly. The screen is smaller than I expected. They had the dimensions but somehow I envisioned it larger. It has Bluetooth, but I have no idea what Bluetooth is supposed to do on a GPS, and is also an MP3 player, not sure he will ever use that feature. I was going for good GPS.

He bought himself a GPS for golf that tells you how far you are from the center of the green & he was able to figure it out and get it setup for the golf courses he wanted so I'm hoping he will be able to do the same with the Garmin.

I'm pretty tech savy, but sometimes I'd just rather leave it to someone else. Ya know what I mean??!!

Wow Tink! That's awesome! The Nuvi 350 is one of my top two choices. What a nice surprise to win one. I bet your hubby is just so happy.
