Now, a brighter look at prices in 2014. While wine, BMWs and the McDonald’s Dollar Menu are all going up (grrr!), there is some good news on the horizon. Let’s take a look at some prices expected to fall this year, as reported by DealNews.com…(with bonus dumb commentary!)

• 3D Printers: are you following this? You take a bucket of chuh, pour it into a printer and make things! Like, real things! The possibilities are limitless (and terrifying!)
• 4K HDTVs: 4K is supposedly SUPER HD. I’m always behind. Just now bought an HDTV, and the next big thing has already happened!
• Gold: Yeah, we’ll see about this. Gold only comes down when the economy is doing well.
• Crude Oil: Probably the best news on this list.
• Off-Contract Smartphones: This is the only way to go. Used, refurbished phone and no contract? No-brainer.
• Xbox 360 & PlayStation 3: That is, the OLDER systems. They’re not as sexy, but the manufacturers are promising to support the old tech.
• Touchscreen Laptops: Because nobody wants them!
• 1080p Laptops: See above!
• Smartwatches: Because that’s apparently a thing now!
