Aside from Ace, the first ad the last 3 years has been in the October 16-20 date range, so I'm thinking it will be like that again. Keep in mind that BF is on the 28th this year which is the latest possible date, so the ads might come out a little later than in past years where it was 4-5 days sooner in the month.

Also Walmart.com has the pink version with a free 1GB SD card for $42.00: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8668691 but you'll have to pay shipping. Still a deal if you'd rather have pink.

bump for today. please vote if you haven't to make sure your size gets represented when i place the order.

Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, if this whole shirt thing happens we probably won't do an option of pink shirts. The choice is basically to have either a choice of sizes or a choice of colors. We can't have both or I'd have 12-18 different size/color combinations and that's just too much for a shirt that will be given away for the most part. Plus with the limited number of shirts being ordered it would be very likely that anyone's exact size/color combination would be gone very quickly. So it's looking like one color (likely black to go along with the Black Friday theme) but there will be a choice of sizes, which I'm sure you all would appreciate more than having a choice of colors but them all being the same size. Thread closed.

apparently ace's lawyers are on the prowl, so if you want the ad, you might want to save it to your computer, just in case...

i'm just looking to get a ratio of sizes - don't worry about being able to win them yet. since most if not all of these will be given away, i could just get all XL like most free shirts, but i'll see how the ratio is first. anything over XL costs more, so that's a consideration. and be sure to vote in the color poll here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=116413

simple poll - assuming the same design, what color would you rather have?

simple poll - if you won a BF t-shirt, what size would you choose?

There are 2 ways to add a picture to your post. The first is to use the attachment tool. Click on the paperclip icon on the toolbar: A window will pop up where you can select the file on your computer you'd like to upload. Note that there are size and dimension limits for these attachments: Note that during Black Friday season, you may encounter database or other errors when uploading images as attachments. Your images may be distorted and not appear as they should. In that case, you should host the image elsewhere and use the following method to include it in your post. The second way is to use an image that is hosted somewhere else (such as on another site, in an image-sharing account such as PhotoBucket, etc...) Click the "picture" icon on the toolbar (the one that looks like a mountain scene). A window will pop up: Enter the URL for the location of your image and it will be added to your post.

Can I pay to have GD sponsor the port-a-potty?

good price. fyi it comes with the "starter" toner which gives you about 1/3 of the pages as the regular toner (which probably costs twice as much as the printer does, lol)

- people who are way too excited for BF and have to start talking about it over 3 months in advance

http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=115522

too many to remember, lol. there were so many that this year i coded the site in anticipation of getting them. one little change and the items are hidden, the store logo is greyed out and a nasty message is displayed to anyone trying to view the list (although you may still be able to view them through the shopping list feature... )

After looking at both the advantages and disadvantages of moving the BF to another site, I chose to keep it on GD. Having it on another site still really wouldn't have given enough protection for the affiliate stuff, and it would have greatly reduced the GD brand recognition that we get from the BF stuff. I still own all those other domains, but they will just be redirects to the main BF site as they've been in the past. And yes, I've had an LLC for GD for quite a few years now.

While we'd all like to think so, I seriously doubt their threats against sites like ours were "mostly" the reason for their supposed low numbers.

What is everyone's guess on what is going to happen this year? More threats than last year? About the same? Less? (not likely) For the record, Walmart has already contacted us a few weeks ago and their policy from last year has not changed...

maybe we'll get lucky and ace will send their lawyers to have us take the ad down and we can all pretend that none of this existed

3 weeks? Last year the Ace ad (which was first) wasn't out until mid-September. This is 5-6 weeks earlier!
