OK, time for the first Black Friday @ GottaDeal.com t-shirt giveaway We'll make this one simple: just reply to this thread stating why you deserve a free t-shirt. Entries will be accepted until 10am ET tomorrow morning and I'll randomly pick someone from all the replies and that person will get a shirt mailed out to them tomorrow. With most of these giveaways, I cannot guarantee a specific size t-shirt. If you win I'll ask for your first 2 or 3 size choices and will try to get one of them to you. And in case you are wondering what the shirts look like, here you go. All of the shirts I'll be giving away will be basic black shirts (the BF forum mods were given the only opportunity to get custom colored shirts as a way of thanking them for their help this year). And thanks to Marcster for the slogan idea that he came up with late last year: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/images/bfshirt.jpg

There will be many, many different ways to win. Some will be longer contests, some will be quick ones (such as I'll post a thread and everyone who replies in the first 10 minutes is entered, etc...).

Also remember that the coupons are only good for a short period of time, so if you already requested them, chances are they will expire before BF.

just an update: the shirts arrived yesterday and i'll start giving some out this coming week :)

I'll just copy the message I posted on the BF site:

I've actually chatted with the owners of the other BF sites and all of us want a longer summer vacation and won't be posting any ads that we get until October 15th, so come back then

Or maybe I'm just holding onto a couple ads I've received but not posting them just to annoy all of you who keep posting these threads even though it's the beginning of September and you should have other things to be concerned with

Thanks to BJS for coming up with this great idea. Should help spread some BF knowledge, as well as spread the word about GD Everyone, be sure to give this man some questions and topics to include on his videos!

I also got it, but haven't made any significant purchases at BB in 2+ years. I have a feeling they made a mistake with the e-mails and sent the highest "Black" level to everyone, whether they qualified or not. When I log in, it still shows the "Basic" tier.

Radioshack out of stock, Walmart still in stock

Please remember to use the standard format (see beginning of thread) when posting your finds. You can edit your previous posts to add the extra lines and they will show up.

Walmart link: http://www.gottadeal.com/Deal/27539 Shipping is around $15. No site-to-store shipping available, so unless tax is not charged for you, RadioShack is the better deal.

still shows in stock for me

Link: http://www.gottadeal.com/Deal/27538 Won't last long... Free shipping but tax charged where applicable.

I'm sure once someone knows they will post it. It's still very early.

that's likely because they are good at keeping their ad a secret, or perhaps they don't have an actual printed ad, but instead more in-store special-type promotions.

The 4 gift card winners are: littlesdcen jdrd90 vsa3janes aprncess Congrats to the winners and look for the next giveaway on September 14th :)
