Someone please refresh my memory: How does waitlisting work? Do they email me, or...?

Dammit, I wish the web site would match their in-store deal of $13.99 for the Man of Steel Blu-Ray. Come on, youse guys!
-
Man! The online experience has been so great this year. Unless no one matches that $13.99 for the Man of Steel Blu-Ray at Kmart (and if I'm really dying to have it right now), I don't even have to leave my house ONCE.

Dudes, come tomorrow morning, they are straight-up matching all the $6 Blu-Rays I was gonna go get at Target tomorrow night. VERY happy to be saved the trip.

O frabjous day! The 2TB external hard drive listed in the sale paper is now available on their web site, meaning I can avoid going there completely (or, at least, pick up my order after all the craziness has abated)!

OK HELP Again: searching for a DECENT priced keyboard/case, or at the least keyboard for that Samsung 3, 10.1 NOT finding any deals...
Suggestions "oh great & wise gottadeal veterans"??? I see some that say wireless, but then say they are NOT bluetooth, must it say bluetooth, I'm lost lost lost...
You're definitely gonna
wantneed it to be Bluetooth. I would just go through Amazon's selection, and see what combination of reviews and price you can find (if you go strictly by price, you GREATLY increas the odds of buying something awful). Here's a link to the one I bought (I didn't realize how-super-portable it was until it arrived): http://amzn.com/B00EDYX51A -
allshoppedout, how many times do I gotta post this link?
BTDubs, today's the last day, so quit'cher lollygaggin'.
alrighty, noooo hostility on Thanksgiving eve, LOL... could it be that I just can't decide what to buy for someone? Or maybe I'll buy one of each and keep the one I like best & gift the other...
:loli:We actually bought too many, and are gifting the extra one, so I fully endorse this strategy.

Does anyone know if the Nook HD can get minecraft and scribblenaughts?
Unless you're being offered the Deal of the Century, a Nook is a waste of your time, energy and money.

Heads up. Newegg is offering the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1" for the same $299 ($10 off with a promo code) everyone is doing for BF. Except they're doing it right now:
Reminder: Newegg's BF sale is now officially on; and this deal is still ongoing.

Can anyone tell me if you can watch Amazon Prime on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or 3? I just chatted with a staples rep online and they couldn't tell me. Thank you.
Depends. If the OS is above Android 4.0, the answer is "no." That's because the Android app relies on Flash, which Google has stopped supporting in Android. However, I have NO DOUBT there's gonna be a fix, because:
a. The iOS version of the Amazon Instant Video app has always worked without Flash, so it's obviously technically feasible; and
b. Amazon's not about to just walk away from video sales. They already loosened the restriction that prevented iOS users from streaming the AIV app to their Apple TVs (via AirPlay), so they're clearly not inflexible on these things.

I was SURE that deal on The Wolverine at WM was a mistake; but, I re-checked the ad scan, and, sure, enough, there it is. However, it looks like the cover is of the DVD edition (even though it's clearly in a section marked "Blu-Ray"); I would not be surprised if this was a misprint, that Walmart will retract before BF.
The in-store BF ad is now up on Walmart's web site, and it STILL shows this as being The Wolverine. With the movie not actually released until next week, I'm gonna bring a copy of the ad to the service desk and try to get a preorder.
Oh, and on closer inspection, the art shown IS for the Blu-Ray; that title just lacks the blue band across the top

I have that tablet with Keyboard the TF300 and love it. I would not buy it reconditioned though.
I am normally reticent about refurb electronics, but ASUS has an excellent track record; my desktop is an ASUS refurb, and it's been humming along with no problems for 3+ years now.

Do I see Teddy Ruxpin on the movie calendar?? Do any kids know who he is? That was a hot toy when I was little.
Last season's finale of The Venture Brothers heavily featured a Teddy Ruxpin running joke.

Ok I have a last minute item someone asked for. I am not sure what to buy/suggest for the person. What they want in a tablet is
simple to use
bigger screen (8.9 or higher) with HD
comes with/ or can buy readily available compatible keyboard for it
costs less than 299.
*wants it for web/shopping,
entertainment, music,
EMAIL, not documents so much...
can someone give me TWO reasonable suggestions.
I am dizzy from reading this thread.

I've been looking at the Hisense at Walmart, but you need to convert mkv files to watch them. What tablet does anyone recommend that I can just transfer the mkv file without taking the time to convert? I believe the Kindle Fire HD is the same.
Huh. Now you've got me curious to learn what tablets (if any) play .mkvs straight out of the box.

I'm sure the Sonos is nice and all (and at that price, it better be); but, nothing about what I'm seeing really says "home theatre."

The Tenergy 2600mAh charger is gonna be $10 on BF at Tiger Direct (in-store only, but maybe that'll change).

I have an Asus but it does not have Office suite. Also DS has tried an app he got for his iphone and it wont work for him. Do you have any apps you can recommend for us to download. DS has an Asus also the Eee pad I have the TF300. Both of us have the keyboard. DD has the Acer Iconia A500 which no longer updates...

I've used Open Office on desktops and laptops for years. While there are minor differences in functionality, the important thing is that you can save your work in MS-compatible formats.
I haven't looked for an app on my iPhone yet; I'll have to get back to you on that.
-
I tried emailing and chatting to a rep yesterday and voicing my dislike for new format and asking when lists would be available and both directed me to amazons black friday page. I think amazon is just changing everything for the sake of change and is going to realize when the numbers come in and don't compare to previous years sales
I'm sorry, tinkrbel, but that is the dictionary definition of solipsism. Assuming that your own displeasure with how Amazon is rolling deals out this year somehow translates to a trend in decreased sales is completely without merit. I, for one (and I don't purport to speak for anyone else), will do as I've always done: be on the lookout, and if a deal comes along that I want, I'll try to buy it.
-
Now I'm kinda glad so many other stores are doing Thanksgiving day deals; this means I might be able to make the 45-minute drive up to TD to snag some of these deals on Friday.

Just a reminder: You DO NOT need to use a Surface (or any Windows tablet, for that matter) to be able to work with Office-compatible documents. I'm not against any of those things, but you can find Android apps that do what you need (my ASUS tablet even has a pre-loaded office suite); there's no need to limit yourself.

Black Friday Game Plan... How do you make yours?

In 2012, I did almost 100% of my BF shopping on-line. Last year, it was 100%, and I missed almost nothing I was interested in.
