Dang it! I hate this! Been trying to order something online for a hour now, and the server keeps timing out! Why can't they rent more server power for the day??????? So frustrating!

Hi. I am the originator of this thread. Just wanted to thank you all for your responses. Lots of good ideas and info. Appreciate it.

Hi, Thanks for the reply! You say that the line will dissapate fast. I was wondering how fast? 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, etc. Of course I realize it will depend on the amount of people in line, but since I live in San Diego and will be going to the Mission Valley store, I assume there will be a bunch of people there (not out in the boonies! grin!). The other question I have is that you say I won't get any doorbusters. I can understand that, but was wondering is a doorbuster ONLY the items they hand out tickets for? If so, then it seems to me like the only people that get those deals are the first 20 or so people in line. In which case most people miss out on those deals. Am I off base here? What I'm probably looking for is a 22" monitor. Do you think those will be considered a door buster? Sorry for the dumb question! Appreciate your help. Bigdave

The only products I would suggest buying the extended warrenty on is laptops. Very much worth the extra $, especially the ones that include replacement of the battery pack! I'm assuming it would also be worth it for large screen LCD/PLASMA TV's.

Hi all, I'm not new to BF, but have a question for you experts! I don't want/can't stand in line on BF eve, but would like to, instead, walk in after they open. What is the best time to arrive to just walk in without standing in line? In other words how long until the line dissipates and I can just walk in? Do all of the BB's open their doors at 5:00 am, and if so, are the lines gone (to get in) by 6:00 or so? I would like it to be as close to no line as possible, but not too late to miss out on all the deals? Any help? Thanks everyone! Bigdave

This cracks me up! Do they think that just because they prevent the ad from being posted on BF sites, THAT IT WILL NOT BE LEAKED??? LOL! They are idiots! The ad WILL be leaked. You can be sure of that. It will certainly be posted up on bittorrent and I'm pretty certain it will be posted on the usenet as well! And when it is posted out there, you can't put the genie back in the bottle, so WHAT'S THE POINT, WALMART??? In this case, negative publicity is NOT good publicity! Walmart needs to rethink their dumbass decision!

no more, dang it!
