Keep it real
I'd spend at least $300 at newegg (new computer parts to buy), and I'd also suggest amazon as another target.

obviously something with a very broad customer base like newegg is an optimal target. its easier to get pledges and its useful to more potential bitcoiners.
this is all very us-centered though. i wonder if we can get some good suggestions and possibly pledges for germany. it has a lot of bitcoins, so maybe a not-too-big online hardware store or supermarket might be convinced.

for hardware i would suggest notebooksbillger.de or mindfactory.de, for food and general goods i can only think of lebensmittel.de or gourmondo.de. if i get some good suggestions or pledges i think we can start a thread in the german forum.

i also wonder if there are any good targets, virtual goods stores or online shops that have, for some reason, an appeal to customers worldwide.

i constantly buy stuff on newegg, so that's a no-brainer, would definitely make at least $200 purchase in BTC

Considering as how I am in need of building a new computer, I'll pledge $2,000 to newegg.com.

Introducing the Bitcoin 100: A Kickstarter for Businesses

In an attempt to get more businesses to accept Bitcoins directly as payments,  lets compile a list of people who will promise to make an initial purchase wit Bitcoins.  It will be a kind of Bitcoin cash mob.  Once we have some decent numbers, we will contact these businesses directly about accepting Bitcoins.

Initial targets are:

1. BlueNile.com Prices start at just $25 !!!
2. Newegg.com
3. Memoryx.net
4. Your suggestion here

Please post your name,  and amount you pledge to buy and from which company

Pledges:

User Name         1. BlueNile.com         2. Newegg.com         3. Memoryx.net
MemoryDealers      $50,000                     $100                    $1,000

Newegg is an excellent target for accepting bitcoins. They have an large selection of cheap items as well as more expensive ones. I'd be down for at least $100 bucks worth of stuff if they added bitcoins as a payment option.
