I'm starting think this might be a strong black friday this year for certain things I've been putting off. With the recent drop in in LCD and plasma prices I'm hoping to see the one that makes me wait out to get this year. What items are on you wish list to see on the best shopping day of the year?

I am hoping for some really good deals on stereo systems (both the kids want one for Christmas) and a good digi camera like the rebel. DH would like to see a good deal on the 360 lol. I hope this is a good year this year. Last year just was not all that great hoping that we have some fun deals this year!

Two of mine want 6 string Seagull box guitars. I wonder if the music stores do Black Friday. For my three year old, I wait for the ads and then decide. I know she wants a Barbie, but a lot can change in 4 months.

My 8 & 9 yo boys want a laptop. Along with the set of Star Wars dvd's coming out next month. Those should be easy enough maybe even before BF. I am game for almost anything on BF!!

30GB or 60GB video ipod at least 35% off

and INSTANT REBATES!

I know they make a lot of money off people's laziness, or just plain stealing (anybody that regularly uses rebates knows what I mean.), but enough already! Most stores would actually lose money if every person that bought an item got their rebate. I would rather get a 30% discount at purchase than a 50% discount through rebate. Maybe it's just me.

Since I am almost done for Christmas for my kids the only thing left is gameboys. We are waiting for BF just to see what they have. I'll pretty much take any handheld thing though if its a deal for the kids!!

As for the Ipods you can get refurbished ones for cheap. I think they have a 60g video one for $299 now. Haven't really priced them but from what someone said thats a good deal!

I'm looking for one of those too, and possibly a HD tv. I already know I'm getting the Wii(family Christmas gift) but I will be looking for deals on the games(and downloading a bunch of the old school games onto it, I want to play Kirby again!)

The SW dvd's aren't going to be for Christmas here, I want them ASAP. Plus the Lego Star Wars OT game.

I'm also looking forward to the great online deals that come out at that time too. Last year there was a $50 from Zales, I think and I got two necklaces for $13 each. I love it!

For me to have even a smidge of money to buy at least 1 little thing on Black Friday. I don't care what it is, just want to buy something, as I doubt I will have much more than that.

Nothing solid, just personal preference, I guess. I may have bought that one off of you, though. I'm just not sure I want to do a 15.4" screen. The notebook would primarily for travel and hot-spot use.

I would have gladly sold it to you at cost $744 + actual shipping.

That's actually why I cancelled the order is because it's not really as portable as a 12.1" or 14.0" laptop. Currently I have my eye on the Dell XPS M1210, HP DV2000T (http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=3088) and Dell Latitude D620.

Dell M1210 wins where it counts - size.

HP DV2000T is loaded for only $1,000 from CostCo.com but battery life on the 6 cell is mediocre.

Dell D620 has solid build quality but things like a DVD Burner will cost you an arm, leg and kidney.

The HP will probably win as it's feature packed and looks awesome.

That's the one that I really have my eye on, but small size = larger cost, so the 14" range seems to be the better balance of cost : size.

You could do what I have planned. Me and my kids will be sleeping over at my sister's house, which is a few blocks from every store I'd want to go to. I will be waiting in line by 2 am(maybe indoors, depending on what Walmart has for electronics)

It was $900AR last week at outpost, so I can see another $200 drop for BF.

I also can't wait to see what kind of crazy laptops deals will be going. With a core duo, trubrite, 512mb, and a DVD burner going for $600 for back to school? I'd like to upgrade my DV1000 to a DV2000T for cheap.

If we're talking WISH list, then a flat screen TV for the living room (we have a 32" one that we bought 6 years ago and it's huge and heavy!) and a laptop for me (DH just bought one during "back to school" time for his online schooling) and toys for DD. Maybe even (although it's breaking my original rules) a tv/dvd player for DD's room. No cable hook ups, just so she can watch movies/videos.

Edited to add:
I forgot - I'd LOVE a Digital SLR... Too pricey though...

OMG... for the first time in a VERRRRY LONG time, I have no wish list. DS turns 21 in November and has decided that he has everything he needs -- for now (with the exception of a car and Santa isn't THAT rich! LOL)
DH will be getting his gift early when his new 2007 VW Rabbit is delivered (along with the payment book)
And DD is 8 .... with no real demands as yet. (just waiting with baited breath!)
I just hope it's a good BF..... I was kind of bummed last year.
And Andrea .... here are some (((((((GET THROUGH THE HOLIDAY HUGS))))))) for you. My mom died last year on December 6 and she was my shopping buddy, too.

A DVD player for my mom, a DVD Recorder for myself, and a few learning toys for my three nephews, nine months, 2 and 3 years old. (I have no experience with learning toys so I will be watching GottaDeal for ideas.)

I am sure I will think of more wishes as BF comes closer.

This is my ideal present for my son this Christmas, too. He's just getting into trains. My husband just got him a GEO Trax set with a little battery-operated train. But I've been thinking about one of those big train tables ever since my son was playing with one in Barnes & Noble about a month ago. It had a bunch of little Thomas and friends train pieces and signs and some animals around the tracks. Then we saw one in Toys R Us for like $200 without any of the little trains or signs. Ugh! I wouldn't mind $200 (if I had the money) if all of the little trains and signs were included.

I have already told him that if we do go to CC, we will have dinner and I am out the door shortly after. The first person in the line at BB got there at 4-4:30p.m. Thanksgiving Day. They were hardcore and even had portable toilet in their minivan.

:gdwelcome:
Welcome to the boards Kim. Yes, Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, the biggest shopping day of the holiday season.

Origin

The origin of the name is commonly believed to be tied to the fact that the heavy shopping day after Thanksgiving is when many retailers are thought to become profitable. Businesses once recorded losses in red ink and gains in black, a tradition that lives on in modern accounting software, hence the name.



p.s. Just a side note: I just Blingo searched "Black Friday" and GottaDeal.com was the first on the list. Yay Brad!!!!

Maybe an LCD at $500 (42" if it's Plasma)

Macbook for $500 :D (that won't happen :(:()

Playstation 3 Deals...(that won't happen :()

If not a Macbook, like others said, a $100-200 laptop.

I got a digicam last Black friday (sony p200 @<hidden> $300) so that's off the list for me..but some deals on memory sticks would be nice.

I'm wishing for a CHEAP portable DVD player for my son.

Yes, and hopefully decent quality. The 6yo also wants either a My Little Pony Castle or a Barbie townhouse. Otherwise, I'm done with her. Her dad will want to buy something completely useless at full price like he does every year.

I have no clue about the teenager. I've already got a few articles of clothing for her from the disney outlet online store.

Portable CD player for my son (I went cheap last year and the darn thing is already broken lol)

I hear you on that one .. I did the same thing and vowed to myself to get the kids good CD players this year .. but I have to ask myself .. why do they use their CD player when they have an MP3 player????

Hard drives, hard drives, hard drives (and DVDs). And the hard drives have to be big (minimum 250GB for SATA, minimum 300GB EIDE...if not 400GB).

I'd like to have all of my DVDs ripped to my computer, and that is requiring ALOT more space than I have currently (which is already over 1 TB). I'm hoping BF allows that to be a reality.

I'm also hoping CompUSA does what they did last year and duplicates their BF hard drive deal twice more by January.

I don't think there will be deals on the Wii, but just having it out for Christmas will be great. I plan on getting it for the family gift this year(hopefully before Christmas so that I can download games onto it by Christmas.)

I would like a digital camcorder too, but that comes after the other things I want.

I'd like to see the Fisher Price Kid-Tough digital camera for cheap. It's $70, but I hope that drops considerably on BF.

I'm hoping for some cheap/free iPod and Motorola phone accessories. CompUSA came through for me last year, but I've won a 2nd iPod (Nano this time), so that means I need new accessories.

Christy Garner

I would love the following deals on Black Friday:

~ Looney Toons Golden Collection 2, 3 AND 4 (which is released in Nov.) for $29.99 each. (I would LOVE if Target did this)

~ Over the Hedge DVD for $9.99 (Target probably will do something close to this). I got Madagascar last year.......for something like $11.88 or $8.88. But of course if OtH has good freebies Oct. 17, I won't wait til BF.

~ NintendoDS Games $5 off (most of the games, not just "select" ones the store thinks deserve this) - Probably won't happen, but I can dream, right?

~ Cars DVD for $9.99 (maybe, since its coming out November 7)

~ Nice Portable DVD Player for $150 (and by nice I mean a decent lasting battery. The one I have is okay, but I'm looking to get one with a 6 hour battery) - Probably would happen, but only at Best Buy and only from 5-7 AM or something)


~Digital Type pets on sale (Gigapets, Tamagotchi, LittlestPetShop Digital)
I bet Target would do this.


My parents never know what to get me, so last year I bought a few things and gave them to my dad saying "wrap these up for me". That included a Connect 4 hand held game that I got @<hidden> Target for a great price on Black Friday.


edit to add:

~ Sims 2 Nightlife EP for $19.99
~ Family Fun Stuff Pack for $14.99 or less


Those are the only ones I don't have yet, so a great deal on Black Friday would be NICE.


and some DVD+RW Discs to back up my downloads.

in 2005, there was some nasty trampling, fighting, and serious violence in major cities around the country, fiighting over limited quantity laptops, and other cheap goods...

hope this really doesn't happen again (or at least be as, or more serious than last year).

Although, I bet a bunch of people are gonna be there, just to record the fights on their camera phones, etc...
:eek:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
as for the goodies, I'm hoping some more free after rebate cd-r's dvd'r's, cheap pmp (portable media players--better than the online deals), maybe a bigger hard drive for my comp., and a cheap UPS (uninterruptable power supply). and a few nick-nacks that I'm sure won't be any significant deals on... needless to say, I won't be pushing over some old granny or small children to get to any of this!
But I have to say, I'm more interested in keeping the clutter out of the home lately.. and unless its really necessary.. not to add (much) to the future junk/clutter pile!

Let's see, wish list.......

1. Inexpensive, yet not cheap, laptop for my daughter
2. Good BF deal on an Ipod
3. Another good BF deal on Xbox 360
4. Most important of all, I want all these things at one store so I can actually have a chance of getting them.

And for who asked, yes, portable DVD players can usually be hooked up to a tv, I got the Walmart BF portable last year and it hooks right up. Just make sure it has the A/V jacks.

My 7 year old daughter, shopaholic that she is, wrote out a huge list! Here's hers:

a phone
nightstand
CD player
more CDs
MP3 player
High School Musical Stuff (diary, etc)

Bratz Diamondz
another My Scene Boy Doll
