Exactly. I just saw one of the Lite-on 16x burners at WalMart today for $69.
-
It is 10% off - at least most of Target's coupons have been 10% for the last few months.
Looks like that ladder is made by Cosco, who make a lot of folding tables/chairs among other things.

Although we have a dedicated board for these kinds of requests, I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread in the BF forum for our new visitors. We have a large number of elite deal seekers on this board who are willing to help you find great deals.
Basically, for those newcomers who may not be aware, there are a lot of similar deals that you can get right now online instead of waiting for BF to come around. Things like $30 DVD players, $99 home theater systems, $599 laptops, etc... can be ordered right now at various retailers.
So for those who are interested, reply to this thread with what you want AND what you want to spend. If we can find any matching deals online, we'll reply to your post. Simple as that :) Hopefully we can help some of you out and get a few things checked off your lists so you'll have less stores to hit on BF itself.

Those were already posted in this thread about 5 posts above yours :)
Still very unconfirmed...
-
I don't think I've ever seen the iPod Mini for anything other that full price at a local store... You might be better looking online and seeing if you can get it cheaper at a place with next-day air shipping. Save on tax that way too...
-

Those are very, very, very unconfirmed :). We won't be posting them on the main site until the entire ad is released...
-
GameStop.com has 10% off in-stock games with code 10ISGAMES
So GTA would be $44.99 + $1.99 shipping. Not much better than retail, but it's something...
-
I've been looking for a deal to post on this, but the best I can find so far is the standard $49.99 with free shipping and no tax, but I'll keep looking...
-
Maybe they finally figured out that if they take precautions to make sure the ads aren't leaked out early, then they can actually keep them secret until a few days before they "officially" come out. No lawsuits, no problems - just keep them in a guarded warehouse until a few days before BF, lol.
-
I'd imagine that the ads have been printed already for most retailers. It's just a matter of someone getting a hold of them and letting us all know about them...
-
I think they've had a big increase in signups over the past week because of the price cut. I think the fact that they give you 2 in-store rentals each month helps as it allows you to get some of the new releases without having to wait for them to be shipped.
-
any day now.... we're all here waiting :)
-
Nothing yet, Crystal. As soon as they are leaked out, we'll have them in the database on the main site.
-
The 1600x1200 is down around the 5% range.
I'd love to be able to design this site for strictly 2001fp users :)
I may in the future do something just for 1600x1200 resolution or higher - maybe just an alternate front page for the site or something...
-
It should work with any Dimension system.... unless it wasn't activated when you tried to place the order. It was supposed to start right at 12:30 CST
-
It works, just ordered:
$1,527
-30% off coupon code HHDRHWN$21T9SP
-FREE GROUND SHIPPING
===========================================
$1,257 for a nicely loaded Dell 8400 with 19" LCD
I think your math might be off a little...
It's 30% off, not $300 :)

Just some stats of all the people who have visited the site since we launched on 1/1/04:
Resolution:
1024x768 - 54.1%
1280x1024 - 22.4%
800x600 - 16.2%
Browsers:
IE - 76.4%
Mozilla - 17.1%
Netscape - 5.1%
OS:
Win XP - 71.7%
Win 2K - 14.7%
Win 98 - 5.1%
Mac OS X - 2.4%
Win Me - 2.4%
55.7% use WinXP with IE 6.0
Probably inline with most web sites, but I thought someone might be interested...
The number of people with 800x600 resolution has been dropping. When we first started, that number was up around 25%. People must be buying new LCDs from all the hot deals on here and how have higher resolutions :)

We will still have the ads :) -
I'll have to look into it. We might be able to enable it for those with a certain number of posts.
Another problem might be the fact that the "image" is a dynamic PHP link, so vBulletin doesn't want to display it as an image for security reasons.
Give me a day to look into what I can do. Another option would be to save it as a .gif and then it would work...

Black Friday

I did some searching on some forums that still have their posts from last year. The earliest I could find for 2003 was November 11th.
I checked and I have an e-mail from Best Buy's lawyers dated 11/11 from last year, so we must have had the BB ads before that date, and I believe we had other stores first. I think Sears was the first ad to come out last year and it was in late October IIRC.

That's what we're all waiting for. It all depends when they are leaked out. No other site has them yet either. Once they are available, we'll have them. If anyone has access to the ads ahead of time, please contact us :) -
Hi, I'm new to this board and to the BF obsession!! What are the chances of finding an iPod at these sales?
Not good, since Apple doesn't let the stores advertise the iPod for below the MSRP. What particular model are you looking for? Maybe we can find you a deal now :)
Black Friday website has some rumored sales
