Kohl's just let us know that they are putting a handful of their Black Friday ad items online tomorrow at BF prices. Here is the list: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/Sales/Kohls1110 Plus, take an additional $10 off $25 with code SALUTE10 to get better pricing than on Black Friday. Not a huge amount of items, but there it is

If you all want multiple styles (regular, v-neck, hoodies, long sleeve) and color choices, then we'd have to use a site like Teespring (where we did the hoodies and long-sleeve shirts this year) and the cost would be higher per shirt. It would just be way too much work for me during this busy time to handle the packaging & shipping of all those variations myself. That would be better left to a 3rd party. If you remember, we did that last year. I didn't sell any shirts myself - I just got them to give away and we went with Represent.com for those who wanted to buy them. Prices were higher and we sold way fewer shirts despite offering many more color & style options. Everyone wants a shirt in their desired color & style until it comes time to pay for them... And for giveaways, it's just easier to have basic t-shirts in one color. So we tend to pick a color that will appeal to the widest audience. Not everyone wants a neon orange t-shirt.

FYI: The winner of this contest will have their choice of a gold or silver iPad No space gray unfortunately.

anyone else waiting up all night to see if any of the big ads get released after midnight?

I think we've got our slogan for next year's t-shirts!

Who is going to post the traditional "Is it me or do the ads suck this year?" thread first?

Also, we're getting very close to selling out of the shirts in the "shop". Here is what is left as of right now: 1 small, 2 XLs, 4 2XLs and 2 4XLs. If you want them, go here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/Shirts We have a forum contest for 10 shirts going on now and we'll do one more for another 10 shirts after that, and then they'll be all gone. For the last contest, we may be out of certain sizes, so you'll get as close to your first choice as possible.

Update: all the shirts either won in contests (assuming you've replied to my message with your address) or ordered as of this morning are now packaged and ready to ship

This upcoming week will be the biggest week for ads. Most of the big ads (and most of the ads period) should be out by the end of the week. The following week with fewer BF ads left to leak will be all about the online deals as sites tend to really ramp up their deals that week. And then the week after that is BF week which will be crazy like always.

Heard from Dev (bigjimslade) today. No guarantees, but there's a good chance the webcasts will be starting up again very soon.

Menards is usually one of the last ads to leak, so you probably have another 7-10 days.
