I will then randomly choose 15 members who entered and you'll win a Black Friday survival kit with the possibility of getting a mystery gift card or ultra-rare Black Friday t-shirt inside!Limit of one survival kit prize per member but if you have already won you are still welcome to enter future contests for fun.For more info on the Black Friday survival kits we're giving away this year (including the bonus mystery prizes inside), see this thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelbabymommy Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Just for fun: I would LOVE that Kitchen Aid stand mixer for $159. I have 2 family members who will be getting them as gifts this year and that price would love to pay that lol I already purchased one 5qt from QVC for $250 w/ 6 easy payments. Not sure if that was a deal or not lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcwalker Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 All of the items on the front page and many other items in the ad are outdated technology now, and DVDs of those movies are all probably in the $2 bin now. I will go with the $65 Singer sewing machine on page 2. That is a pretty timeless item and a decent price for a compact light duty sewing machine.

Bopeep Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) I'd go with the Barbies. That's a decent deal, especially for 2 dolls and the horse and carriage. Also, the air mattress on page 14 seems like a decent price. You know, I actually see several deals in this ad that would be a good deal today. *already won Edited October 25, 2019 by Bopeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redeyejay Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I picked the pre-lit tree for $29.88 plus a free wreath! Pretty much the same deal you would see today although it might be LED. Love this contest! It was fun looking at the old ad. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colemandawn4905 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 The 17.88 queen air mattress is an awesome price! I’d like to grab one of those lol I’m digging the flip phone for 38 cuz I bet at that time that phone was amazing. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smurfgirl Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I’d go for the sheets for $19.99, the air mattress and the digital frame. If memory serves me correctly I believe I purchased that digital frame back in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
len_mullen Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Great contest. Are we going to do this EVERY Friday? So much has changed in 13 years. Maybe time for people to stop complaining about the ads? TVs and DVDs are relatively expensive. The best deals were on low tech gifts. The Star Wars/Transformers toys would be a great deal today. Kitchen appliances look to be about what Kohls will charge this year. The best deal in that flyer is the $29.88 6 1/2 foot pre-lit tree. Let's do an old Kohls flyer next! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 26, 2019 Author Share Posted October 26, 2019 One of the best current deals in the ad might be the Nintendo DS Lite system. Those older systems in sealed condition can sell to collectors for quite a bit more than they did when they were new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFAddict716 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 This was so much fun! I love looking at old ads. I would say the Shark Stick Vac on page 25 for $10. I would love to find a Shark vaccum of any type for $10! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vkozlowski0419 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 This is a fun contest! And makes me feel old! I’d say the best deal is the LEGO set for 49.99! Legos haven’t gone down in price at all over the past 13 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
