Deal is back $549 - $100 coupon code JNB9P4HBRP3?FL - $50 rebate = $399

Yes, and we plan a lot more contests using GottaPoints after BF is over, as a reward for those of you who stick with us :)

Pretty much at the exact same time.

See here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=17283 Have patience with this - things should be straightened out well before BF.

We are happy to be the first site once again to provide you with another Black Friday scanned ad. This ad is for Ace Hardware and goes along with the list of items we posted last week. >>> Download Link The scans are in a .zip file (around 800KB). We suggest you save the file to your hard drive just in case we are forced to remove the ads later for whatever reason. Can't open the zip? Try this PDF version instead. Also, keep in mind that in order to save bandwidth, provide an exclusive benefit to you, our members, and to prevent hotlinking, you need to click on the link from this site in order to access the file. If you post the URL on another site, they will just be redirected to our BF home page where they can register for the forum to access the ad. If you need instructions on how to download and open the file, check out the instructions and demos in the WalMart ad scan thread.

We know a few of you are having problems with the shopping list feature not recognizing you, as well as the main BF site being down because of all the traffic. Rest assured that we should have everything taken care of in plenty of time before BF. You can still view the lists now, the scans are still available here on the forum, etc... Things may be slow right now because of all the traffic but we're working on it. We still have over 3 weeks until BF, so we'll have things ready to go in advance. You'll be able to create your shopping lists ahead of time and be notified when items are available online. Just be patient, give us a few days to get this server situation handled and then we'll help those of you who are having problems get things working again with plenty of time to spare :)

You will be sent a private message here on the forum, and if we don't hear from you we'll contact you via e-mail a few days later.

Feel free to chat tonight :) I can't say for sure for how long RossMAN or I will be able to stop in for as we'll be watching the server to make sure things are going as well as possible, but as long as we don't have hundreds of people in the chat, it shouldn't affect things on the server too much.

Just a note that we should have the scans for these in the next 24 hours. We'll let things calm down a little bit first before posting them :)

Last month you might have seen the 2004 ads which were on the site before we got the first ads this year.

There isn't one thread - most poeple are just posting one thread and making sure the title is clear enough so people know what they are looking for.

The PSP that was also available has sold out, so this PS2 could be gone soon as well, especially with the new, better coupon.

The next ad will come out when it comes out. Keep in mind that last year at this time there weren't any ads out yet. Of course the more people that find out about the site, the greater the chances of someone with the ad letting us know about them.

New 12% coupon - now $3+ cheaper than yesterday - these will sell out fast!

That item is linked on the main BF site: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/ just do a search for digital camera to find it

The only thing I can suggest is clearing the cookies in your web browser and then coming back here and logging in again and then seeing if it recognizes you.

Does that page recognize you by your forum name (i.e. Welcome aerosmithgirl)? Don't look at the menus on the left - for the shopping list you need to use the edit/display/print links in the main content part of the page. Click "edit list" and you will be shown a list of stores to browse for items to add.

Are you on the shopping list page: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/ShoppingList ? If so give us more details of the problem you are having.

This has now been added :)

Just when you thought Black Friday @ GottaDeal.com couldn't be any more useful, we bring you another feature you won't find at any other site (unless they steal this too, lol). Judging by all the threads about it, many of you are wondering about getting BF deals online either before or on BF itself. Besides our big list of items available online which we'll have on the main site in a few weeks, we're going to make things even easier for you to get as much of your BF shopping done online as possible. Here is how it works, when you add items to your Shopping List, we will automatically e-mail you an alert (to the e-mail address we have on record when you signed up for the forum) when any item on your list becomes available for ordering online at the Black Friday price. You don't have to do anything other than add the items to your Shopping List - we'll take care of the rest. Consider us your "Personal Black Friday Shopping Assistant". The e-mails sent will contain links right to the product's page so you can order quickly before they sell out. So for those of you who had not planned to using the shopping list feature because you didn't want/need to keep track of what you want, this is another reason to consider it. Not only will you get notified of the items you are interested in being available online, but you'll also be contributing to our Most Wanted rankings which helps everyone see which items are the most in demand this year. To get an idea of how the shopping list works, see this page for screenshots. You must be logged into the forum before going to the shopping list page or it may not recognize you. Also, if you have just registered for the forum and it does not recognize you, try coming back here to the forum, logging out, and then log back in (make sure you check the "remember me" option) and the page should recognize you.

There are several threads about Walmart & layaway already on the forum. You'll probably find what you are looking for in one or more of those :)

FYI, this deal is available again with a new coupon code. Get details here: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=17036 Supposed to end on Wednesday, or earlier if the max uses limit is reached.

It's doubtful that any store is going to be able to advertise the PS2 below $149 in the BF ads. Some will likely include a free game or accessory kit, but you're still paying $149 + tax and will have to get it before it sells out.

Just bumping this. Today is the last day for the 10% off coupon. You can also get a similar deal (10% off) on the Sony PSP (under $230 shipped) by following the same instructions and searching for "PSP".
