Wow, nice. Considering the discount is higher this year, I hope they don't jack up prices when the sale starts to make up for it...

There isn't a way to do that, but if you'd win the Zhu Zhus, I'm sure you'll find someone on here who will trade with you

Are you referring to the 15/20/30% codes? Those start tomorrow. We have the 30% code here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=150164 but it ends before Black Friday.

When I hear something, I'll post it.

Well I guess that means the Ace rep is a no-good liar, lol. Seriously, she said it would be e-mailed to me today. I'll send another e-mail...

We just started a simple contest on the Black Friday main site where we are giving away a 3-pack of Zhu Zhu pets as well as at least 20 of the BF survival kits. Details here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/ZhuZhuContest Be sure to enter your forum username when you enter to get a bonus entry! Update 11/22/09: Contest has ended and all winners have been contacted via e-mail. Congrats to everyone who won and thanks to everyone who entered.

Bravo!

Yep. 5-6-6

after

nope, still not there. it needs to be 5-7-5. yours is 5-8-6

It was very difficult picking the winners. There were a lot of very funny entries and it was hard to narrow it down to just 3. The 6 winners are: angied64084 LauraLorek ilgetumipretty raven20_79 tjredsox4 Tara3117 Congrats, and look for a PM from me soon. The next contest is already up: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=156441 And we'll be giving away some survival kits on the main BF homepage this week as well. More info on that later.

you might want to count your syllables again...

Another challenge: if at least 300 members enter this contest, I'll double the number of prizes from 5 to 10! I'll try to have another one of the "real world" contests during the week this week as well, so be sure to watch for that one! And finally, don't forget about bigjimslade's Facebook contest that ends Tuesday: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=155592

CONTEST OVER! HOW TO WIN: Reply to this thread with a Black Friday-themed haiku. For those unfamiliar with it, a haiku is a 3-line poem with the first, second and third lines having 5, 7 and 5 syllables respectively. It does not have to ryhme, but should create some kind of imagery in the reader's head, so be creative! An example Black Friday haiku would be: people skipping lines (5 syllables) crashing carts into others (7 syllables) glad i stay at home (5 syllables) Limit one entry per member (although you can post as many haikus as you'd like). Entries will be accepted until 10pm ET on Sunday, November 15th. At that point I'll randomly choose 5 entries and those members will receive Black Friday survival kits! Good luck to all!

This contest is now closed. It'll take me some time to read through all the entries to pick my favorites, so look for the winners to be announced either late tonight or (more likely) tomorrow morning. Thanks to everyone who entered :)

This contest is now closed. The winner of the HPB Prize Pack is..... debnmark Congrats and look for a PM from me soon :)

You usually just print them out and mail them in. As for free shipping, the codes for free shipping w/ no minimum are rare the last month or two, so it'll probably be free shipping on a $50/$75 purchase.

Shopping online is nice for Kohl's because most of the ad items are online, they'll have free shipping w/ some minimum purchase, and we already have a 15% code good on BF in the coupon thread.

Use this link (the affiliate redirect is screwing it up): http://goto.gd/46 oh, and i voted :)

Don't forget that besides the sale prices, you'll have $10 Kohl's Cash for each $50 spent, plus likely a 15% coupon of some sort (definitely if you order online). If you want to make sure you have a 15% in-store coupon, call up Kohl's and request a replacement charge card. They'll usually include a 15% coupon with it good for about a month.

Some of the pages are cut off so I can't add every single item, so if there is something that you want me to add once the ad is finished, let me know. Or you can add them in the "notes" section of your shopping list.

Next year Kohl's needs to just list what's NOT on sale. It would be like a 2-page ad
