I will be here to report if things change.

The Eagle has left the nest................................................................................................................................................................................................Bunker that is!

We received ours today! Almost left for parts unknown without them!

It's the heat in the Mojave, especially beating down against that storefront! Remember the lady from last year? Also from Cali. I recently took the wife and Marine son on a little trip to the High Desert. We went to 29 palms, Yucca Valley, and Joshua Tree. She saw her first roadrunner and coyote, nothing like the cartoons!

Check the modem they gave you. It should be a DOCSIS 3. If it is not, get them to give you one, even if you have to take it in yourself. Just Google your Model number and it should tell you what you need to know.

Will we get the bat signal or the "Eagle has left the nest" code words for leaving for Best Buy?

From the looks of it, it won't happen on Blue Sunday. The meager price reductions are not even worth a price-match attempt by their competitors.

Sweet prices on my favorite Nikons!

http://charlotte.news14.com/content/news/all_nc_news/701847/onslow-co--man-already-in-line-for-best-buy-black-friday-deals JACKSONVILLE, NC now has their first camper. He was there for the XBOX One and Black Friday! http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/specials/specialreports/article/227835/3/Shoppers-Camp-Out-Days-Ahead-of-Black-Friday This was a variation of news on 12's report on our camp-out a few years back. Apparently, they are showing it again in an attempt to get people to rat on us since we will not call the news agency to tell them when we will show up! I have co-workers telling me that they are begging people to call in so that they can be the first to scoop us. lol. Note that again, they used our phrase, "Occubuy"

If they only knew what they were up against!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/21/best-buy-will-match-price_n_4319427.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business I need to do some more research on this, but it looks like best Buy just woke up from their slumber. "It joins Amazon, Wal-Mart and others in offering doorbuster deals a week early. Beginning Friday the company is offering deals like $200 off a $449.99 Vizio 50-inch TV and a $75 gift card with the purchase of a fourth-generation Apple iPad."

When you are the third tent back you lose your crown, sorry king! http://banning-beaumont.patch.com/groups/business-news/p/black-friday-campers-already-woman-sets-up-outside-best-buy-in-beaumont A woman sets up outside of Best Buy, looking rather unprepared.

We need some scans of electronics as well!

If you get a chance, see if he is still there after tomorrow night. For the PS4 launch, one guy in our location had a tent, but some may panic and change their strategy.

Yes, there is now a part three. I will have to watch this in the tent if possible!

I am not a big fan of the barricades, but it worked out ok last year. I was checking sku numbers of TVs yesterday. Our BB store will have only 8 of each of the large TVs on the front page. There were piles of the 39 Insignias and 32 inch TVs which hints at secret sales for the latter.

Some people make it an annual event to drive by. If you get the chance, check out the Black Friday train horn videos on YouTube!

From my personal experience, and from my partner's feelings on the matter are that we are through with the list approach. We gave it one final go last year, and it was at the Manager's request that we try to use the list and he would honor it. When people who were in the line allowed others to join, the list was brought out. He decided not to use it. We have a new approach this year, but it involves color coded shirts. eventually, these shirts could become the new norm on Black Friday. The first 10-20 this year would get one. Next year, if enough sponsorship is attained, we will expand that to 50. There are no more than 10 shirts of a particular color, and they will be free when the line forms in 2014.

http://fox8.com/2013/11/19/black-friday-shoppers-already-lining-up-for-deals/ The video is now up for your viewing pleasure. Note that Tony Avitar is second in line this year(Usually first in line). These guys are seriously in a competition with each other!

Invite a couple of your camp buddies to do the play by plays! Sounds like you may need some febreeze and a fire extinguisher if you follow bpr's plan!

Normally, this is not a problem until the line forms on the last day. Many problems with early arrivals are worked out among the first twenty or more people. One person , like myself, usually sets up the "Base camp". Many Best Buy managers will instruct the line when to reform or lose their spot.

The issue was already settled in another thread. This Walmart special event is confusing things again! lol. :homer:

I will have to check it out, but LG is a good brand.

Refer to the camping thread for a recent sighting! Keep the reports coming! Closing thread.
