Dude, will that price leave you without enough money to buy curtains?
Haha, yea that would be an option. Biggerst thing is the room it would go in, a 50'' is probably max size for it.
Of course, I could always pick this up and just wait until I move at some point after the first of the year to a place of my own...
-
If I had the right room for a 60'' plasma I would jump on that deal there.
Unfortunatley any room we could put a tv would have too much light coming in.

Thanks for the info. Just wish the keyboard was cheaper for the Asus. It is a nice feature though.
Decisions, decisions...
-
I almost took the plunge on that 32'' Coby. Was in the 300 range on the waitlist and it came up that I could add it to my cart but I passed. Much rather spend that on something else right now. Hopefully if any of you were waiting for it you got one.

Still trying to decide if I buy a tablet or not...
If I do I think I am leaning towards one of the ASUS' or one of the Samsungs. I know ASUS does a better/quicker job of getting out updates but have read they have a fair number of issues with their products just going black or freezing all of the time. I have a Galaxy phone (first model) and really like it and like Samsung. But they don't seem to update as often.
Both brands are all in the same price area outside of the Note and the Infinity. I would almost get a Fire but they don't seem to be quite as flexible as these brands I am looking at and would like an expandable storage slot. I do have Prime so anything I get I can watch the content I get free through Prime...correct?
-
Wow! That is a steal of the year on that TV.
And that MAgnavox is still a really good price.
How come I can never be online, or at least on the right sight, to find a deal like that?
-
If I didn't have to get new tires on my car in the enxt couple weeks I would be after 1 of those laptops. Probably the ASUS since I don't need something overly new since it would only get used for a business laptop.
-
Well that seals it.
Honestly I hope this "cinematic" event isn't at my store. It will force people to get there even earlier due to the more pubic view. Least there both opening up at midnight. They better be packing one heck of a ad to justify this.
That second/third sentence made me LOL...
On topic though, not surprising. I will not go to any of the big retailers unless I absolutely have to if they have something special. This year though I am only looking for a new tv/media/entertainment stand/center. And since I don't anticipate those being heavily discounted, I am not going to worry about going out.
-
Nothing that grabs my attention. Which is all the better since I was planning to be in Athens for the UGA game.
-
Wow...
I don't ever really go to any of the "big" stores but this just seems insane. I have shifted to manly online purchases this year, so it doesn't mess up any plans I will make. Especially since Amazon will match the media prices.
If Target is doing this, then how many other stores will be opening that early (or just an hour or 2 later)? They keep moving in a direction that seems to indicate Thanksgiving will just be another day with no thought of what the day is for.
-
From Ace ?!!! But, why ? I dont think they ever has a frenzy like taret/wallyworld or ToysRUs. Geez. What has the world becoming to.
It may not be the actual final ad I would guess. I think this happened wither last year or the year before.
I was personally wondering if it was the actual final ad or if maybe there is an insert missing sicne there are none of the usual Stanley items listed.
-
Are retailers going to get more in? I would like to have one (or soemthing similar) but it seems with as quick as they went in AUgust...
-
I may be looking for a 32'' or so tv by the end of the year so hopefully there are some good (better) prices around that time on Insignias.
Bigjim, really like your avatar pic of Barry.
Anyone have much experience with the Rocketfish brand of stuff?
-
Yeah. Actually ordered my first items from them last night (just some hdmi cables and a couple other things) but they have already shipped. So that makes me happy.
-
If you got to BB's site and click the weekly add part, there are "other" ads to the right that you can browse as well. Theone for Fri-Sat was the first one that was highlighted for me.
-
I have never noticed or heard of anyone camping out at the one(s) closest to me. My dad and I went a couple years ago and they opened at 5 or 6 and we got the couple items we were interested in. Lines can be a little bit of a pain, but overall never ahd a problem there.
-
The only one I saw that had speakers and a receiver was at HH Gregg. Think it was an Onkyo...
I've been debating getting a surround sound system. But for the room it will be in, the soundbar systems seem to make more sense and haven't seen any good deals on these. Plus, it is a pain to run the wires and stuff.
-
Liking this ad...especially the plush blankets and the recliners. Also the tv seasons is a good deal. Be interesting to see what others are available in store.
-
This add doesn't seem too bad to me...just depends on what you are looking for. For me (and my parents and sister) ther are a good amount of things that have been mentioned throughout the year as needing a new one of, an extra, a gift idea, etc.
That Westinghouse seems like a great deal (eventhough I just bought a Samsung less than 2 yrs ago). Wish they had a 26'' like WM had though since that would solve my need for a new PC monitor and tv... I am going to finally get a BluRay player, so that that Sony seems very good though I will have to research if it can do all the internet stuff (Pandora, NetFlix, etc). Also need an external HD so I can move old school files, songs, pictures to.
And new sheets/blankets, other home stuff seems like pretty good deals as well. And my parents have wanted a fire bowl so I will probably be trying to get that.
I can see how it is underwhelming if you have younger kids to shop for, but for what I need/want/would like to have this is about what I expected.

Ended up getting the iTunes cards. Still had about 15 laptops at my WM when I went back at about 2. Turns out the store actually did have about 4 more of the 26'' LEDs than they thought. So kinda disspointed I missed out on getting one this morning sicne then I would have had Christmas for my sis done. But, guess it wasn't meant for me to get that tv...hopefully there is a similar one in the coming weeks before BF or after, since I am not one to go and wait hours upon hours to get something.
-
My WM had only 4 of the 26'' (supposedly). However, it is saying online that there are still some instock there... I am tempted to go back and see if the ones they said were not part of the sale actually are.
Same problem with iTunes here, but dept manager took down everyone's name and # who wanted them and said she will call everyone once it is working in the system and will not sell them until she has called people and put cards on hold for them.
-
That deal on amazon went quick. Looks like it was basically what WM has Sat.
-
Any opinions on the ones WM and BB have this coming weekend?
I need one to get me through the rest of this semester sicne the one I have now is just about ready to die from how slow it is to boot, other issues.
I am graduating in Dec so after that it wil mainly just be used for very basic stuff like internet/email/maybe some Microsoft stuff since I have a desktop to do any "heavy" stuff.
-
Ace is always good with the rebates from my past experiences. Never had one not filled, and if there is an issue always gotten a call or email to send what was missing to fix it.
Actually excited for BF this year since last year I was in the hospital from a week before Thanksgiving to the middle of January with a rare case of food poisoning and almost died. So I like this add...mainly sicne it has a few things I could use.
