The ad I am looking at said "Friday Only" sale prices, so I would assume that means Thursday night. If it said Thanksgiving Day, I would think Wednesday night.

Has anyone shopped Dell Home on BF before? Are the prices usually updated close to midnight Central time? Are the deals usually just first come, first served on a limited number of items they priced specially?

Great point - the phone support is in Central Time which is an hour behind me, but the store servers might be somewhere else. Thanks again!

Good points. Guess that was a bit naive of me. Particular item I am hunting isn't available at a B&M store, but it's not the end of the world if I miss the BF price ... Thanks again!!!

Let me clarify what I meant on calling - I didn't mean how many do you have, I meant more like does the sale price take effect at 12:01 - once they are out-of-stock is the sale price gone. As mentioned, the ad says "Quantities May be Limited on some items" - not specifically the one I am interested in. I just didn't think it was a good idea to call and say "I am interested in this deal in a BF ad that was posted at GottaDeal.com that you haven't officially released yet and I wondered how it works?" Also, if Brad is the best contact person - if someone could PM him and ask him to reply in one of the threads - I tried, but I can't send PM's yet. Thanks again!

Thanks - so basically, pre-register, and then keep hitting F5 until the price drops and then hit "Add to Cart". Question - do you think by "Quantities may be limited" they mean 1 or 2 per person or they have 50 total or similar? I guess it's not good to call Dell directly and ask until the sale is officially released, correct?

I posted my question here [link removed - haven't been here long enough] - but search for other post by me or in the Other Stores - DellHome thread, but nobody responded yet. Basically, if an online ad says "Friday Only - Quantities may be limited", does that mean I need to click on the item at 12:01 A.M. and hope 1000 other people don't beat me to it. I know how the B&M sales work, but not online. Thanks in advance!

Actually, I had a similar question - I am interested in one of the Friday only items. The ad says "Offers on this page are valid Friday 11/28 Only. Select items available in limited quantities only." It has a phone number from 8AM to 9PM Central Standard time. I understand how this works for a B&M store - the store opens at 8, they have 5 items, I wait in line from 2.A.M. and hopefully I am in the door to get the item. How does it work with an online vendor like Dell? Do I have to have the page up and click "Refresh" and "Add to Cart" at 12:01 A.M. Friday and hope that it doesn't say "Sorry, your item is sold out", or can I click at 11:50 P.M. and get the sale price, and they will ship it when they get a new order in. Thanks in advance for assistance.
