As you may remember, Home Depot, Lowe's and several others typically release their Black Friday appliance deals (the same deals that will be in their BF ads) weeks in advance to give you ample time to shop around and purchase without the stress of making such a large purchase during the BF craziness. Tomorrow will be that day, at least for Home Depot and Lowe's, so if you're interested in getting appliances this year, you don't have to wait much longer to see what the deals will be.

Yeah I laughed at that line as well.

Another batch was shipped out today

https://ir.jcpenney.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/599/jcpenney-inspires-shoppers-to-cherish-the-little-moments After spending quality time with family and friends, customers can make JCPenney their one-stop shop for unbelievable Black Friday deals a day early, as most stores open at 2 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day. When stores open, shoppers will be greeted with a coupon worth $10 off $10 or more, $100 off $100 or more, $500 off $500 or more to be handed out while supplies last. Most stores will remain open through 10 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 29, and will reopen extra early at 8 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 30. Customers who wish to get early access to the retailer’s Black Friday deals can start shopping JCPenney.com and the app beginning at 12 a.m. CT on Wednesday, Nov. 27. Thought the ad might come out along with this press release but I don't see it on their site, yet.

To put things in perspective, today marks 24 days from BF. Last year, on the day that was 24 days from BF (October 30th) we had only seen Harbor Freight, True Value and Costco. So looking at it that way, we're way ahead.

Sound like Stage Stores is shifting most of their various stores (Goodys, Peebles, etc...) into Gordmans with their off-price model.

Still thinking the most likely scenario is: Walmart: Wednesday night around midnight EST Best Buy: Wednesday night around 1am EST Target: Thursday morning around 9am EST I really hope they are a little more spread out than that but based on past years, that seems to be the most likely scenario. And these could be this Wednesday/Thursday or next Wednesday/Thursday because of how late BF is this year.

Amazon put out a press release today about their various shipping options for the holidays but the threshold for non-Prime members is still $25. Too bad. They must have lost too much $ on it last year.

Chat begins in less than 90 minutes

They also usually had a free giveaway in their ad which I didn't see. Could be a preview version of the ad with more to come.

Not an ad, but I'm hoping Amazon announces they are bringing back free shipping for everyone this week.

Another t-shirt winner from the survival kits! This time it's playacet from here on the forum who was one of the photo caption contest winners. Congrats! So far we've had a t-shirt winner from the forum and one from one of our Discord contests.
