Shipping update: all outstanding orders & prize shirts have been shipped as of 10 minutes ago Sizing update: as I predicted, I am now down to about a dozen XL shirts left. All other sizes are gone. The remaining shirts are available for purchase for another week or so. Thanks to everyone who bought shirts this year - you (and the t-shirt club members) cleaned me out much earlier than anticipated. It's tough to predict demand and size ratios each year. Might look into more of a print-on-demand setup for next time but I don't want prices to be much higher than they are.

I don't think they've had free shipping for cardholders on BF, at least not in the last 5+ years. Supposedly when they start their new rewards program next year if you have MVC status you'll get free shipping on all orders all year long, not just during 30% off sales.

Walmart announced that they are doing something similar.

Already 25 of 49 posted for November (not that it matters lol). Still haven't decided what I'll do for the club going into next year...

I think this year they wanted to tie it in with the launch of their Holiday Gift Guide which will probably happen tomorrow (they are promoting Halloween stuff today still). The URL is the same as it was last year (hpb.com/bookfriday) so it was easy to find. The gift guide page has been "coming soon" for about a week now.

Lowe's has a gift card for their "buy more, save more" offer where Home Depot just takes the $ off instantly. You can also pick up Lowe's (and possibly Home Depot) 10% coupons on eBay for a few dollars to combine with these sale prices.

Don't be surprised if we see a pretty big number of ads released tomorrow (or late tonight). Stores like waiting until the 1st of the month to start promoting for BF.

Link: https://www.gottadeal.com/Deal/183411 As they do every year, Home Depot has put their Black Friday appliance deals online several weeks early so you can take advantage of them without the craziness of Black Friday. These are the exact same deals that will be in Home Depot's Black Friday ad. Free delivery on $396 or more. Back again this year, save up to an extra $500 by purchasing more than one appliance together. Save $60 on 2 appliances, $150 on 3, $250 on 4, $400 on 5 or $500 on 6 or more appliances priced at $498 or more and microwaves $248 or more. These savings are available through November 29th. Looks like Lowe’s will start theirs tomorrow.

Sam's Club legal letter received. Walmart will be soon after I'm guessing.
