  1. Oh, good. I've always been a WD guy (every computer ever built, internal HD, external HD....), but for $40, it's hard to pass up a stack of those 1TB drives. The 1TB WD Passports seem to be $60 and if I can get 3 Seagates for the price of 2, I'll be going Seagate.
  2. This looks to be one of the CM supported hard drives. Any objections to this one (or 2-3 of these?) Staples $39.99 at BF price. I'm not sure what the "mobile device backup" stuff is, but imagine I can re-format that to eliminate that reserved functionality.

    Scouting!

    There you go. Good work!
  4. Love it!!! Watched it 4 times now..
  5. My guess is all day, so starting 3am EST/midnight PST.
  6. Up to 2 hours prior to opening. Every store is different in terms of volume, staff, and management. Best to talk to your store manager.

    Shopko ad

    Haha. I'm aware. I went up for the debacle a few weeks ago against the Lions. Noon games are the best to have some tailgating, but still be able to get home at a decent time.
  8. Was just pulling out of my driveway to get turkey day groceries and FedEx pulled up. Naturally,I waited and grabbed my packages. Presently occupying the front seat til I get home
  9. Thanks. I PM'd you the link to my report a few weeks ago and we chatted a bit about this already. Let me know if you no longer have it or after seeing it any recommendations change. I have clear LOS from my window in my house (not a tree to be found) to the towers; I think time will tell once I have the antenna hooked up and start getting a signal. Cool. Plex server will be in at least Phase II of this project Actually, my 2006 does have HDMIs...though I think just 1, but the input currently comes from a 7.1 receiver anyway, so that'll take in my Blu-Ray & DVR to send to the TV.
  10. I'll be up helping update the tracker tonight, too.
  11. Yes, they are. And virtually the entire ad is marked as doorbuster, if i remember correctly.
  12. Lol! ...Well, fine then; bad example. But, you get the idea.
  13. Do you remember if they come in Wed or Thu? I've been having a huge debate over here (albeit just with myself, but at least I'm always winning...)
  14. Yeah, it's not like it used to be. But still matched many of the popular selections from the ads. It's just like anything else with other retailers..... "WM is selling the Beats Studio for $169??? Pssshh, I can get them at BB for $159". That doesn't make WM bad; just the way it is. Each retailer will have some things that are better than others. We've just come to expect so much of Amazon.
  15. I'll go back through the items marked as available at BF prices. There were dozens of items earlier this week that were at that BF price, so they were made available. Staples may have changed them back before officially being live tonight. Is there a particular item, or just all of them?
  16. We will find out tonight. Staples usually rolls their prices in like BB, but much faster. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for you as I'm going through and adding items.
  17. Not specifically, but there's usually those few limited-quantity doorbusters that don't go online. I've usually seen most laptops, etc. be online.
  18. Not yet. Tonight. And even then, it won't be all... Some in-store offers will never go online. The sale officially starts tonight (midnight EST), but some items were already at the BF price; you can see those in the Tracker.
  19. I saw something to this effect through Verizon wireless yesterday, but hadn't had the chance to fully investigate.

    Shopko ad

    That is really crazy. Is it a hot item??
  21. See.... all that whining pays off
  22. There used to be more coupons; there's still a few to use. BB&B, Macy's, Kohls, Ace. I never get any actual ads in the mail. I have to buy them in the newspaper. Honestly, I can't even remember if they come in Wednesday or Thursday paper because I usually just do it all online now, and only have a few random items to pick up in-store rather than my whole loot so I don't need a paper copy of the ad.
  23. YES! Loads of help. I feel bad you spent so much time talking about that Extra TV and I should have put a disclaimer that I don't plan to do anything there....yet. I'll get an HDTV in there (probably the bedroom TV and upgrade that one) before I do anything with it. Right now, it doesn't even use a cable box and just plays DVDs; maybe Gamecube when the kids get a little older. Let's leave that out of the equation for now, but good to know about maybe needing an amplifier for 4 TVs; is that even true if only 1 or 2 are used at a time? The network TV towers are only 8 miles away with nothing else within 35 miles, so I just plan on getting a 25-mile range antenna with no amplifier. I'm aware that I can't record ESPN with SlingTV; no worries. I actually expected I could only have 1 concurrent stream of SlingTV at a time, so knowing 2 is actually a bonus. Thanks! I am definitely leaning toward the DVR+ 2-pack. Noted about the USB-powered (aka portable, not desktop) HDs - also a fan of WD (Seagate a close second) - and the recommendation on 1TB size (now on the hunt for deals). We have about 110 hours on our current DVR and it's pretty full, but also has 50 hours of archived shows; I can just stash the HD when that happens. Can you plug that HD into a PC and play the shows from there; what's the format of the videos on the HD? (not a deal breaker, but good to know) The lower level TV is a Sharp from 2006, so I'm not sure that'll directly accept coax input; however for as much as we watch TV there, I can just pull the DVR+ from the bedroom, if necessary. If all goes well with this plan, maybe I'll be getting 2 more DVR+ for the rest of the locations on BF 2016. I'll get Fire TV on BF from BB, and one from SlingTV offer. Also, a Fire Stick on BF.
  24. Way too many to list here. GottaDeal has so many awesome tools for us, including search. Find it here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/search.php Type in kitchenaid or mixer and you'll get a good set of results. You'll need to decide on Classic vs. Ultra vs. Artisan. Kohls is always a good bet. 5% w/RedCard off at Target is pretty good. As well as a few others, depending on where you'd want to shop.
