[Keep trying sold out items]

I just tried the Gateway laptop that was sold out last night- and it's in stock. I ordered mine, and for $20 extra, it's being shipped to me. This beats standing in line all night long, losing sleep, freezing to death (I just came back to America after living in Australia for nearly a year and even California winters are harsh to me after that!), and fighting people for the item I want. Totally worth it, to me. So if anyone else is after the Gateway, it's available right now.

Be prepared for a battle. Laptops are the most fought over Black Friday item so be sure to come early and bring your mace. Haha

It's times like this where I really do wish I had mase, hah. Seriously. I never could understand how people could get so worked up over BF shopping- but I'm already getting tense as it gets near.

I just got back from my store- they had the eMachines stacked up in boxes out in the middle of the aisle already.. about 20 of them, I guess. They had a lot of the TVs stacked, tons of Xbox 360's, a lot of Canon printers, and Lexmarks were being stocked as I left. No sign of the laptops anywhere yet, though.

[Suggest a digital camera (below 250) deal for BF.]

My husband and I have had 3 cameras between the two of us, a Fuiji, Kodak, and a Cannon. I don't think I'd get another Kodak- the photos came out VERY blurry compared to the other two cameras (the Fuiji was a 2 mega pixel, the Kodak was 4 and the Fuiji had MUCH better quality). But my favourite is the Cannon, while it's an older model (only 4 mega pixel, I think) it takes beautiful photos, especially when they are printed out. This is just me, but if I were to get another, I'd either get a Nikon, Fuiji, or a Cannon. Nikon's are awesome, but a little pricier.

I'm going for a laptop. I need one for college and since the start of spring semester is right around the corner, I figure now would be a smart time to get one. Save a little money.
