jstorms Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 The purpose of the after season Light-O-Rama sale is to sell off any excess inventory, then in the summer they have another sale (not as good), but supplies are not as limited.Given that I'm expecting the pickings to be very slim, controller-wise, for 2012's after holiday sale since they've been back ordered all fall. I was hoping to increase my empire by 32 more channels, but might not be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnoldc Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 My plan is to add 4 more controllers for next year. Now given the whole set of issues this year, I will do it slowly and probably pay regular price. To help with that, I will probably get the DIY kits.

George Simmons Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I'll be looking to add a few more controllers, a few more CCRs and a few sets of CCBs next year. I'll shop both/either/any sales with complete confidence that I'll have what I ordered long before I need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
