I can't get it to happen for me. I'm guessing there is something code-related in one of the posts (probably from someone that doesn't know how to correctly post pics or something) that causes the browser to crash. I assume you are all using IE?

This thread will have all the Target after-Xmas clearance deals: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=120415

The only changes after Christmas are that we close and archive the Holiday and Black Friday-related forums, but everything else is open all year. We're seeing a lot more people staying on this site this year compared to previous years, so you're not the only one

moved to OFFLINE deals Please post deals in their correct forum.

moving to deal discussion as this is not a deal

yes, it was invitation only each transaction would have a Paypal transaction ID# and a walmart order #. it's very easy for them to automatically find orders that were returned and debit that $ from the person's PP account. and if the PP account doesn't have a balance, they'll take it from your CC or checking account.

That kind of post will very quickly earn you a permanent vacation on here. This is your final warning. And since this thread has gotten out of control and others are now reporting posts for the mods to deal with, I'm closing it. Everyone has stated their opinion and nothing good can come from keeping it open.

For the 843rd time, DO NOT post about sharing Prime accounts with other members or solicit other members to join you. While it may technically be allowed, it is against the program terms if you are not in the same household.

November was pretty bad overall: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081204/ap_on_bi_ge/retail_sales_5

The grand prize winner is triplej2002. I'll be sending you a PM shortly to get your details. The 3 runners-up who will receive a GD t-shirt once we get the newly designed shirts early next year are aprncess, brianatwcc and jarerice. You 3 will be contacted once we have the new t-shirts. Congrats to all, and thanks again to Geeks.com for sponsoring the contest.

With 95% of Cyber Monday sales now over, we've closed that forum and moved those threads to the "Expired Deals" sub-forum of the Online Hot Deals forum. Now, for all of the latest hot deals, check out the main Online Hot Deals forum here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2 It's by far the most popular board on here and along with the main GottaDeal.com site is where you'll find the best deals all year long. As mentioned before, the BF and Holiday boards will stay open until around Christmas before being archived.

the problem is going to be only having 3 more weekends between BF and Christmas as opposed to the normal 4

check out the dvdtalk.com forums - they'll help you more than you can imagine

The entry period for this contest is now over. The mods and myself will now discuss the entries and determine the winners. Expect an announcement towards the middle of next week.

FYI, the 15% gap.com and FS codes are stackable tomorrow

You must not do a lot of online shopping. This kind of thing happens at every online retailer, not just Walmart. It's just one of the chances you take when you order online, especially during a very busy time like when the BF sale was online.

Another update: Now that the online versions of the store's Black Friday sales are over with, we have "archived" the Black Friday site and are now redirecting people who go to the BF site to our main year-round GottaDeal.com online deals site. If you still want to view the old Black Friday site to check out the ads, you can access it here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/home.php We'll keep that site up as it is for several more months until we start to prepare for Black Friday 2009. The various interactive elements (shopping list, contact/ad submission forms) have been turned off. The ad scans are still available here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/AdScans We'll leave those up only for a few more weeks, so if you want to "collect" them and save them to your computer, do so in the next week or two. We may add a "gallery" of past year's ads to next years BF sites for the major stores. We've also moved the Black Friday-only threads from the Online Black Friday Sales sub-forum to their individual store forums. We renamed that forum to Online Cyber Monday Sales and the threads left are for sales still valid on Monday. We'll be adding more Cyber Monday sale info as we receive it. Next week, we'll also close that particular sub-forum and all further online deals will be posted in the main Online Hot Deals forum at the top of the forum listing. As I mentioned in the first post of this thread, we'll keep the rest of the BF forums open for another month or so before archiving them all as we've done the last 4 years. We'll then have 5 full years of archived BF discussion available to browse.

nope, not much sleep this past week. but i plan to make up for some of it tomorrow, so don't expect such prompt responses (at least not from me, lol)

First, thanks to everyone - forum members, mods and everyone else associated with the site - for making this another great Black Friday on the site. Despite all the doom and gloom news reports, traffic was up, it appears you all were spending more online, and other than a few minor hiccups, the servers held up pretty good this year. Next, as we've told you a thousand times already, we're open all year long. The Black Friday and holiday forums will be closed and archived in about a month, but the rest of the forums and the main GottaDeal.com deal site is open all year long, so we hope you'll stick around. And a warning: if you leave us now, we'll ban you from ever coming back. OK, not really, lol. But if for whatever reason you aren't going to stick around, make sure you are subscribed to our BF mailing list so you can be notified when we open the 2009 site next summer/fall. You can sign up for the list here. Next, if for whatever reason you need to save the items on your shopping list on the BF site, do so in the next day. On Sunday night, we'll be clearing out the shopping list database and archving the BF site to a read-only version. We'll keep it up for a few months in case you need to view any of the ads, but your shopping lists will be gone. So again, thanks for a great BF and we hope you'll stick around :) Update 11/30: Another update: Now that the online versions of the store's Black Friday sales are over with, we have "archived" the Black Friday site and are now redirecting people who go to the BF site to our main year-round GottaDeal.com online deals site.

I think the BF episode from last year was better, but this one was still good.
