Meijer contacted me today and said that the more you all whine about not haveing the ad yet, the longer they'll take to send it

Yes, they usually have the vast majority available online. We'll have much more info on that soon. See here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?237772-ONLINE-ORDERING-for-Black-Friday-Have-questions-Read-this-thread!

Forgot to also mention that we'll be opening our dedicated "Online Black Friday Sales" sub-forum next weekend as well, so you'll have an entire forum to discuss this stuff in. Like I said, you won't miss a thing - just keep checking the BF site and the forum.

We know a lot of you are looking to order Black Friday ad items online this year. We will have all of that stuff thoroughly covered and links posted all over the site. Trust me - you won't miss it. We'll have a schedule of when each store is supposed to go online with their sale. We'll have details of the online-only retailers' Black Friday sales. Once the sales start, we'll let you know which ad items you can buy right now at the BF ad prices. But here's the thing - it's still VERY early in the process. This stuff won't launch until next weekend, so all the questions you have (like "can I buy this item online?" and "what time does this store's online sale start?") can't really be answered yet. We won't be sent details until next week at the earliest, so for now, all the info we have is what is printed in the actual BF ads. So I ask that you be patient. We'll have the answers you need, just not until BF gets a little closer. If you have any questions about online BF shopping that we can answer now, feel free to post in this thread.

FYI, Toys R Us is back on the list... for now

Magic 8 ball says...... stay tuned

Usually around 90-95% of the deals are online at some point. Some sell out quickly though. I dont know about store pickup, but considering they have free shipping on everything, I wouldn't chance ordering it for pickup only to find out they were sold out in the store.

FYI: Dropped off the shirts for the winners from the last contest (virtual BF shopping spree) as well as a few others today, so other than tonight's webcast winners, everyone's shirt has been shipped.

We don't promote this page much, but we have a feature on the BF site where you can view lists of the top 15 items your fellow shoppers are adding to their shopping lists for each store. It's called "Black Friday's Most Wanted": http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/MostWanted It's updated every few minutes and takes into account the tens of thousands of items being added to your lists (here is the shopping list tool for those who might have missed it). So I thought I'd post it here so you could see which items will be the most in demand this year. Cheap DVDs and games seem to be the most popular.

I just wonder with hoodies, if we did BF hoodies, would anyone wear them the other 364 days of the year? Regular GD hoodies, sure, but is anyone going to wear a BF hoodie in March?

The guy from Meijer who we've been dealing with said last week that the TG/BF ads were going to be sent this week. Guess that was a lie...

You guys are killing the servers, lol. Keep the refreshing to a minimum so I don't have to close things again...

Same here. Doesn't look that strong after the first page.
