  1. Hey Brad, here is my list and my reasons... Nabi 2 $129 at Walmart...seems to be the "IT" kids tablet this year completely knocking leap frog, kurio, etc out of the park... Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 179 PLUS $20 gc Best Buy....I think in general these will be popular because they are all over the ads. That will drive the demand, people will think they need one! Skylanders Giants 38.96 Walmart...new game...I have an 8 year boy...need I say more? 40" TV 198.00 Walmart......people are going to flock to this because it is "guaranteed"...they are going to be fights, this is a disaster waiting to happen... 50" tv 349.00 Target...that is a lot of tv for not a lot of buck....great for people that can't normally afford a large tv because of the price, but I say be weary of the brand....research, research, research Wii 99 Sears....great deal for a gaming system under $100..comes with two games, they can also pair it with a $10 game from Walmart, and call it good! OR Wii 119 Target....same system but includes a fun dance game and then you don't have to hit two different stores.... Kindle Fire 159/plus $30 gc BB....a nice e-reader for around $150 bucks PLUS the gift card which means the purchaser can use the gc towards another gift... AND finally, I LOVE that the stores are opening on Thursday evening. Getting up at 2am just doesn't work well for me. We do Thanksgiving lunch, so we can eat and then go out ready to shop. I understand that people are upset about stores being open on Thanksgiving BUT this is retail. Wal-Mart has been open 24/hours for a while now and when somebody applies there, they know that is a possibility. Right after college, I worked for Southwest Airlines, we had to work holidays. I knew that when I applied and I don't recall people feeling sorry for me. I smartened up, became an educator and have better holiday hours!
  2. I did find this otterbox that is for the tab 2, do ya'll think it is worth the $70 bucks? http://www.otterbox.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-2-7.0-Defender-Series-Case/77-22228_A%2Cdefault%2Cpd.html?utm_source=email&utm_medium=lch&utm_campaign=20121112-77-22228_A-LCH&eid=lch&spMailingID=40532145&spUserID=MzkxNDcwNzU5OTES1&spJobID=167133588&spReportId=MTY3MTMzNTg4S0
  3. We are getting my 5 & 8 year olds the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 this year. Does anybody recommend a good, durable case? I did look at the otterbox cases but they are $70 a piece!!! Thanks!
  4. Here is my 2 cents worth and that is all you get because I have to save the rest for BF! We are spoiled and expect bigger and better deals! Like fabnsab said, BF is becoming more popular, hence no need for the stores to give away the house. My kids are getting bigger (5 & 8) and are getting electronics (tablets) this year for Christmas and a few very specific toys. I do not expect those toys to be one sale, but if they are it would be like having my cake AND eating it too! We are buying a beach cabin, so I am actually loving going through the ads with a fine tooth comb to see what I can get to furnish the cabin. We need EVERYTHING! WITH all that said, I am impressed with a 50" under $400 and 32" under $200. I am thankful for the ability to go through these ads and find great deals not only for my family, but for others not as fortunate as we are. I am not trying to be Pollyanna here, but I think we all need to step back a second and look at these ads for what they are. They are opportunities to buy things for our families (and others) at great deals. These companies are in it to make money, so I do not expect them to sell me something at a loss to their business.
