It's back! Please join our NCAA Bracket Challenge for 2016. We are using ESPN's bracket system to play this year. To join click here: http://games.espn.go.com/tournament-challenge-bracket/2016/en/group?groupID=703583 The group password is blackfriday ESPN also has an app you can use to sign up and follow your picks. Find us within the app by group name GottaDeal.com. *** IMPORTANT *** Your bracket entry name must be the same as your GottaDeal forum username. Your ESPN username can be anything, but please rename your ENTRY to be the same as your forum username. This contest is only available to members with forum accounts. If you win and your entry is not a valid forum username, you won't win a prize, so sign up for a forum account first if you don't already have one. You have until Thursday morning to enter your picks - I'd recommend doing them as soon as possible. The winner will receive a 2016 Black Friday t-shirt and other brand new GD merch! Good luck!

Update: Mystery boxes are now SOLD OUT! Thanks to everyone who picked one (or more) up The majority of boxes shipped yesterday and the rest will be shipped today so you should have them in the next few days.

These have been very popular. I'm down to the last 4 boxes, so if you want one, go here: http://gottadeal.com/mystery.php

For those of you who'd rather pay with a credit card (via PayPal), here is a page where you can do that: http://gottadeal.com/mystery.php

I'm going to be posting this on the site and Facebook soon so if you want to get your order in before more people see it (and have a better chance of getting your preferred sizes/items), do so today

Thanks to everyone who has ordered a box so far. Plenty still available. Help me get rid of this stuff

Also, these will ship in about 2 weeks. Going to try to make as few trips to the post office as I can

Going to Vegas tomorrow for CES. Always interesting to see the new gadgets in January that will inevitably end up in Black Friday ads in November.

As we do every year, I archived the 2015 Black Friday forum threads. You can vew all 12 years (wow, that's a lot) of archived posts here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/forum/10-black-friday-archives/ I also created this Black Friday 2016 forum which will remain open all year for whatever Black Friday discussion pops up. This forum will eventually become next year's main Black Friday discussion board in the fall.

Merry Christmas

Amazon.com Toy Clearance Deal Posting Thread It's the end of the holiday season, time for GottaDeal members to start shopping for great toy clearance deals on Amazon.com! 1) Please only post toy deals that qualify for free Super Saver Shipping or Amazon Prime. 2) Deals that are part of their Lightning Deals are not clearance deals. Those belong in their own thread. 3) You are able to post more than 1 toy in each post, you can separate the deals if you'd like in your post 4) When posting a toy deal find, please remember to post the following: The toy name, the price (including the original price along with the sale price is preferred) and most importantly, a link to the toy on Amazon.com. So, with that in mind, let's get to posting Amazon.com toy finds! If you have questions on how to post the deals, please feel free to send me a PM or post your question over in the Discuss GottaDeal.com subforum.
