Just my two cents: Best Buy has competition but nothing full blown or particularly threatening, Where else can you compare different spec pc's, tv's alongside fridge/freezers etc? I'd say amazon is the biggest competitor only because so many sellers join to offer more variety. Locally we have BrandsmartUSA which is probably a big competitor for appliances but again they don't have the variety of other stuff (computers/camera's/etc). Brandsmart is further away and notably (for me) most of the reps don't appear to have the knowledge of Best Buy reps. I would never stop into Target, Walmart or even Kmart for an electronics purchase unless I knew it was in stock(in ad or word of mouth)or felt like a look around anyways. My local Walmart and Target's have plenty of tv's and a few laptops but not much else, sure their online stores have a little more variety but nothing near Best Buy. I remember the days when I was spoiled for choice between Best Buy, Circuit City and CompUSA(for pc stuff). CompUSA was sold and now has nearly no sales, CircuitCity closed which pretty much leaves BestBuy. Oddly enough RadioShack has been pretty good to me the last two years but again it's stuff I've found online or gone specifically to pick up after seeing in an email or ad. I have a new Walmart opening on Wednesday so that should be kind of interesting for BF but at the same time I don't really need(and probably can't afford) much this year. I'll wait until I've seen the sales but this year might be a good year just to observe crowds since everything is pretty close by apart from jcpenney (for snowglobes ) and petstore. I remember ,year's ago, getting into CompUSA on Thanksgiving night for free(or nearly) after rebate stuff those kind of sales don't really exist anymore.

What things are you hoping for the most on Black Friday to be good deals?
tinkrbel replied to momof3luvs1's topic in 2011
I'd maybe do a separate thread or ask in the tech forum OR....you could try searching last years forums and see what deals there were and compare to sales. I stopped playing games after Sega:P My BF shopping list(unless I find at a comparable price before) so far is AV receiver, harmony remote and laptop memory. Anyone ever noticed a Toshiba have a BF sale? They don't play well with others Aside from that any cookies/sweets or small filler items, usually walgreens has some. I'm wondering how the new Walmart will affect traffic levels. I'm hoping since it isn't 24hrs ppl will swamp that one and leave this one a little easier/safer. -

Wow...someone in my area, thanks for the heads up. hope it's still like that tomorrow but may venture out tonight. -
Watched part of that last year, not sure if I just closed before end or if it was another video. I don't condone that kind of craziness but I remember thinking that she looked like she would have reacted just like everyone else if someone ELSE had fallen instead of her.

Everyone...and then they'll drop by for something :) I'm really glad I decided not to camp out last year for a low spec laptop and bought a higher end one later on...now I just need for ram

Is it strange that as I showered tonight I realized the bodywash I was using came from Walgreens' Thanksgiving(maybe XMAS) sale last year?

LOL. Why not ask JohnnyLaRue if he can get his hands on one and mail it overseas for you? Toyscamp and bongoworld have a notify button you can try signing up for that. Also their website languagelittles have a list of stores by state that stock their stuff. -

I'm really impressed with Target, I just got a voicemail from them about a set of b.toys keys w/remote being recalled since I paid for it with my target credit card. -
Back to School Deal on a Laptop or Desktop
tinkrbel replied to JenSully's topic in Deal Finder & Deal Discussion
Office max texted me a deal about $200 max perks with selected laptops, might be worth checking it out if you need anything but the lowest spec which I'm sure isn't included. -
what happened to the possibility of saving them for later viewing?

thank you sir :)

looks like japan is uct+9 so 9am sunday morning for you and 8pm saturday night eastern, anyone care to confirm? All this daylight savings stuff is confusing me.

I think we should turn that thought into a contest:P I won't bother playing cause I'm not creative enough. I need to check what my username/password was before Sat.

I have never had them ask to keep the ad but only once did they let me price match at any store AND they had before and since then told me it must be done at customer service.
