Karen, vB updates these "promotions" once per hour, so any minute now the option should show up :)

Fixed link :)

Should be by itself. It's a $30 instant rebate and $20 mail-in rebate.

OK, closing this thread. Thanks to everyone who replied. If you are still seeing the old server, just be patient - you'll eventually get it :)

New server shows up for both www and non-www for me, so for those who are still seeing the old server, the switch should happen in the next few hours

That will be a feature of next year's site :) Along with a lot more surprises.

The problems with the ads and shopping lists should be fixed. If anyone is still having problems, post here with detailed descriptions

Looks like our new server was not set up the way it should have been. I've got the sale ads working, and the shopping list should be working shortly. If you are still getting the old server, give it some time - it'll happen eventually once your ISP gets the changes.

For some reason the scripts are not recognizing the arguments (such as store/category name, etc...) and they are just showing the entire list of ads. We are looking into this now and should have it fixed very shortly.

I know some people are getting the new server for both versions based on the traffic, so it's likely that your ISP has not grabbed the changes yet (neither has mine), but eventually everyone should be hitting the new server. I'll keep both servers up until we know everyone is getting the new one.

Because of the huge traffic we're getting (and the fact that it's going to get even more crazy over the next 2+ weeks), we are moving just the BF site to another server just for itself. The forum and main GD site are staying on their current server, so there won't be any forum downtime. I made the changes this morning, but I'd like to make sure they are starting to take effect. So here is what I'd like you to do: Go to http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com Look at the top section for latest news. Check the date for the first entry titled "First rumored KMart Thanksgiving Day ad items posted!". If you see November 7th, you are viewing the old server and if you see November 8th, you are seeing the new server. Also try http://www.blackfriday.gottadeal.com (with the added www) and see what happens. Then reply to this thread letting me know which server you are hitting. Thanks :)

Keep the discussion in the original thread: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=18163

Until any of these can be confirmed, we are not going to post them on the main BF site. We were doubtful of the list that came out last night which is why they were not posted immediately.

This is just a partial list. More to come in the next few days we hope.

You should be able to post links now. We do that to prevent a lot of the automated vBulletin bot spammers from spamming us. We used to get a few of those attacks each week but requiring a few posts before posting URLs has pretty much stopped it.

There is a good chance that they will have them on Walmart.com - they did last year. Make sure the item is on your shopping list and you'll be e-mailed when/if it becomes available.

Target normally has a pretty good BF ad. You can see last year's list here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/2004.txt

ToysRUs/Amazon has it for that price now: http://www.gottadeal.com/DirectDeal/12881

Ya know, you guys can go to your local TRU and bother the employees until they give it to you :) Getting us the TRU ad first would get you a very nice reward.

That's cool. I'd really like to get a copy of that audio somehow. I wonder if they can send it to us (probably too busy with other stuff). They only play one hour of his show here so I didn't hear it.

This page has been updated to now include the 10 most popular items at each store. It does take a little bit of time to load, so don't worry if it doesn't pop up right away.

And we assume he mentioned us on the show, but we haven't been able to find a recording yet. Also another news article with some quotes from yours truly: http://www.recordnet.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051106/MONEY/511060302/1003
