Yep, the new stuff will be given out throughout the year, not just during BF season. Gotta reward those who stick around all year

OK, time for the final t-shirt contest of the year (I can hear the boos from the crowd). I'd love to keep going, but I have to stop the contests early enough to make sure everyone gets their shirts in time for BF. We'll make this last one very simple: Reply to this thread letting me know what kind of GottaDeal "swag" I should consider ordering for 2012 giveaways (besides BF t-shirts of course). Let me know what stuff you'd like to win and I'll use that input when I decide which new goodies to order. I'll take replies until Monday, 11/14 @ 9pm ET. At that point I'll randomly choose 15 winners to win the final BF t-shirts. If you've already won a shirt, you can't win another one, but feel free to reply with your ideas as well :) Good luck to everyone! http://i.gottadeal.com/main/images/merch/bfshirt2011.gif Also, speaking of GD swag, shortly after BF, we're going to have a "GD Warehouse Sale" where I hope to get rid of all the existing GD merchandise I have so I can make room for new stuff. You'll be able to fill up a box full of stuff and basically just pay the cost of shipping, so be sure you stick around after BF for that. T-shirts, reusable grocery bags, LED keychains, calculators and much, much more.

Patience is one thing that Target should have in their ad, because all of you need it...

should be working now

The only limited time thing last year was the free gift card from 4-10am. There were items labeled "doorbusters" but that was more of a marketing gimmick as there was no ending time listed for them and they just said "while supplies last".

And it was Sears (actually their PR firm) that sent it over.

The A and B pages might be for those states that have the MAP laws that prevent them from advertising items lower than a certain price. The B's might be for those states and the prices in the ad might be higher.

yeah we're cross-checking the original list we posted (and then removed) with the actual ad.

now that everyone is in the webcast chat i can have this thread all to myself

bigjimslade will be giving away a shirt or two during the webast tonight, so if you are still looking to win one, you can try there. we'll also have one or two more contests here before i have to exit the t-shirt shipping business and start seriously running the site as BF gets closer

Boooooooo....... I talked to someone from WM today and the impression I got was that they thought they "won" by not having their ad leaked before they could do it themselves. But the way I look at it, they had to leak it a full 2 weeks before Thanksgiving otherwise it would have leaked anyway. Sites like GD forced their hand. Plus if you look at the URL for the ad, it has the date of 111121 in it, which probably means they were going to wait until Monday the 21st but got scared and moved it up, lol.

If you are enjoying the excitement of this thread, come back on Wednesday and Thursday night of BF week when the stores put their BF ad items online. We'll have busy threads like this for all the big stores

Yep, the thread was edited once enough shirts were sold. I just wanted to get the size ratios a little more even for the final contests :)
