You can also buy 10% and sometimes 20% off coupons on eBay as well. So if you are going to be spending a lot, you might want to look into those.

http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=82464 scans are up, item listing will be posted soon. and don't be surprised if we have to take this one down soon as well...

I'm guessing they are saving some of the better deals for their "secret" sale to be posted on Thanksgiving. Proabably don't want to tip their hand to the competition, especially since it looks like a lot of stores are doing similar things on Thanksgiving. Maybe next year we'll have almost live, real-time responses to each other's ads, lol. BB will post a $299 laptop, an hour later, WM will have a $289 laptop on their site, etc...

Wal-Mart very rarely has "sales" to begin with. Even during the year, their weekly circulars mostly have "everyday low price" type items and occasional "special buys". The early bird items in the BF ad are the true "sale" items and are mostly below regular prices. The non-early birds are in many cases just regular prices like WM's normal ads. Same thing happened at least the last 2 years.

We've already started the list of items you can order online: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/Online That list will be updated as often as possible, but much more frequently as BF gets closer and more items go online at the BF prices.

Yeah, I have a bunch of "automatic link creators". You all may know them as mods

And anything you buy through the links will support the site (that is, assuming they keep their word and don't terminate the affiliate account )

Yes it is.

Saying you've seen the ad leads to people begging you to send them the ad, which is what we are tying to avoid.

Here are the scans: http://www.bfinside.com/wmbf.pdf

My plan: stay up with minimal sleep from early morning on Thursday until early afternoon on Friday, constantly updating the site with the items that are available online for those of you who are smart enough to get your items online and avoid the madness Then sleep. For a long time. And then wake up and see how many of you free-loaders have ditched us after BF is over, never to be seen again until BF 2008, lol. On that note, seriously everyone, stick around on the site and forums after BF. We will save you more $ during the rest of the year than you could possibly ever save on BF. If you don't believe me, ask some of the regulars on here. I don't ask for much, but give us a chance the rest of the year as well. You don't have to visit as often as you do these days, but don't just forget about us

I've done a few interviews with newspapers today and have expressed how many of you are disappointed with the ads this year, so maybe the stores will find out as these stories are published and add some last-minute deals.

yes, we've had the ad for months now and were just waiting for someone to post about it seriously, as with all the ads, when we get the ads, we post them :) closing thread.

Yes, please use the official laptop thread. Thread closed.

The full ad has now been typed up :)

If we are protecting our revenues, why are we also removing ads from stores that we have no affiliate agreement with?

moving to deal discussion as this is not a deal

i am typing them up now. all done with the early bird items, now on to the rest...

scans have been uploaded :) 16 pages total

http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=82464 item listing is being added to BF site, scans will be uploaded in just a few minutes :)

i have the first half of the pages and am starting to type up the items and put them on the BF site. full scans will be posted once i have all the pages :)

:)

The Dell deals are not that hot, evidenced by the fact that they are not doorbusters. If you pay attention on the site here, we'll have better deals between now and BF direct from Dell.
