Dug up last years BB early computer special for comparison with this years WM specials.:) Desktops: -eMachines Celeron 2.66, 17" CRT, 512MB, 80GB, DVD/Cd-RW Combo (T2893/17F3) $599.98 - $350 bundle MIR - $50 Monitor MIR = $199.98 -eMachines Celeron 2.66, 15" LCD, 512MB, 80GB, DVD/Cd-RW Combo (T2893/E15T3) $779.98 - $350 bundle MIR - $50 Monitor MIR = $379.98 Laptop: -Toshiba Celeron M 1.4 Ghz, 256MB, 40GB, DVD/CD-RW $899.99 - $400 IR = $499.99 (6902514)

The Razr is an expensive phone. I've seen it for free AR with 1yr contract on amazon but bet this deal requires a contract also.:)

I may try some online BF shopping this year. I haven't ever thought about it before. It would make things alot easier even if you have to pay shipping. I just hope I don't have an experience like Bethc24.:)

Try to leave the house at 2:30 but ends up being 2:45 or later. Speed to the store to make up for lost time. Rush from the car to the store as soon as I'm parked. Then stand in the freezing cold trying to stay warm for 2-3 hrs. I love it! :)

Hopefully less, but it depends on the deals and if I get caught up in the BF buying frenzy. I still have somethings from last years BF sale that I'm giving this year.:)

I wouldn't ever give FF as a gift but my kids have received them from relatives in the past. They enjoyed geting them. :)

disneytati, If rebates don't work for then BB most likely won't be your best bet. Last year they had a $500 laptop with no rebates but the $200 desktop was heavily rebated. I don't remember the amount but I'm guessing it was somewhere in the $200-$300 range. I still believe that BB will offer the best door buster computer if you can handle the rebates. Compusa should also have a good deal the day before Thanksgiving but that will most likely also have large rebates. They make money on rebates, I believe that only about 60% get redeemed.:)

Bestbuy is my #1 favorite ad! Can't beat their early specials IMO. CompUSA is next and normally their best sale is on the day before thanksgiving. Circuit City, TRU and Sears after that. :) ??Whats the day before thankgiving called??...Wednesday:tongue1:

Last years BB desktop was a Emachines with 2.6 Cel, 80gb HD, CD burner, 512mg RAM and a 17" flat CRT. $200 AR. I've been very happy with it, no problems. This year I'm wishing for the same thing with a 15" LCD at the same price. Wal-mart's desktop does come with an LCD but $400 is a little high IMO for a door buster special.:)

Turkey and over eating make me sleepy, so I usually take a afternoon nap. Then I can't sleep later because I'm excited about the deals. Struggle to get up early and not really fully awake until the stores open. This happens ever year. Its a BF tradition, I guess.:)

The "W" in Wal-mart stands for wilderness on BF. Difinitely not a tame place and danger can lurk around ever corner. I will be at BB first thing. IMO they always have better computer door busters.:)

I usually start in January when target puts toys at 75% off.:)

With normal budget laptop deals currently hovering $400-500. I'm curious to see what BB will bring out. Don't really need a new one but might be tempted if its under $300. I'm predicting that BB will have a $150 desktop or maybe $200 with a LCD monitor.:)

Wow! I guess I'll get up a little early so I can still get some bargains.:)

Bizzard would be nice;) . A great way to limit the crowds.:)

FAR are what usually get me. Especially networking equipment. Why do I need another router or card when I still have an extra one in a box at home. Because its free...or at least sorta. :)

I usually split stores with friends. A couple of us will goto bestbuy and pickup extra items. Others will pickup exta items at their stops. We all have are 1st stops. Its the only way to get in on most of the good bargains.:)

I usually go for BB 1st. Never been 1st. My best was 6th and thats cause others were still waiting in their cars. 2-3am usually works for me. By 3:30 the line starts to from. For BB I always try and be in the 1st 30.:)

Most of the DVDs are probably the same ones you can buy everyday for $5.xx. The ones that sit in the big bin in the aisle outside the electronic section.:)

The day after Christmas is the pits for bargains IMO. Best to save your time and money. :)

Thanks!! Look like radio shack will be my last stop again.:)

I like the ads in hand. Their still read over and over even though I knew the deals for a couple of weeks.:)
