How I Spent My Christmas Money......

I got some money as a gift for Christmas and really didn't have anything in mind that I wanted to get.  I was wandering through a store the other day and came upon a printer that was too good to not get.  It's a Lexmark and it is a 4-in-1, which means it's a printer, copier, scanner and fax machine.  I thought it was too good a deal to pass up so I got it. My printer I have been using is ten years old and just about worn out.....I really like the idea of having a copier so when I need to copy something I don't have to run to Staples to get it done.....I think I spent my $55 wisely! What do you think?

Great buy!
Jody Swaney Jan 13, 2009, 9:39am EST
Sounds Great, but Lexmark has very pricey ink Cartridges. I love my printer / scanner / copier though. :) Great Find. The scanner is nice for digitally saving photos and my wife uses it to save receipts.
Sandra H. Jan 13, 2009, 9:43am EST
I doubt they can be any pricier than my old ones, a color cartridge cost me $43. I got a black ink one for the Lexmark for $17, it came with a color one. Guess I'll have to check out the price of the color ones........Great ideas for the photos and receipts! Thanks.

Great find Sandra! I have a printer/scanner/ copier/fax... the printer gave out but I still use the scanner and copier- I just send them to my newer printer! I don't use the fax anymore, and I don't have a landline anyway- so no use for a fax.

Cheaper to buy a new printer on sale than to replace most ink cartriges..........go figure!

I have one of those, but I can never afford INK for it. So, now it's just taking up space... hopefully you'll be able to get the ink

Spent nicely. I need to find a printer, but I'm a lot pickier. I won't do anything but an HP or an Epson. SO hopefully I can find a deal!
