    What did you buy? How were the crowds? Share your experiences!

    Very very light year this year. We have guardianship of my granddaughter so money is not as free as previous years. And my mom is in the hospital recovering from surgery.

     

    I actually got everything I really wanted online.

     

    Best Buy:

    Allita: Battle Angle, Hellboy, Mortal Engines and Bohemian Rhapsody all on 4k.

     

    Target:

    Jbuds Air Sport wireless headphones x2

     

    Ventured out with the baby around 8pm Thursday. Went to Walmart and walked around a bit. Crowds were very light. Didn't buy anything. Headed to Target. Parking lot was still a madhouse so I passed. Passed by Best Buy on the way and still looked crazy so went home. Ventured out Friday morning and grabbed some toys for the baby. Went to Target and walked around a bit and didn't buy anything.

     

    I will say this. Walmart really pissed me off with their new Layaway policy. No item under $10 and the minimum amount has to be $50. Some of the toys I had were $5 each and taking them out of the equation took my total under $50. Seems like nothing more than a way to get people to spend more money.

    That Walmart thing is really disappointing, it sounds like it would really affect people who don't have much money, sometimes layaway is the perfect way for me to shop.

    Onn TV - Walmart

    That's interesting riven because a couple of days ago when I was seriously considering buying the tv it said it would be available online tonight when their BF sale started.

    Wow, did Walmart sell out of the 43" Onn tv that fast, or was it never available online? Either way guess I'm glad I had convinced myself to stay with my 32" another year due to finances.

    This doesn't even feel like Black Friday anymore...

    bribri I totally understand what you're saying, there is not the same anticipation of BF, BF used to feel nearly like a holiday in itself. I noticed a difference last year but definitely this year. I live in a small town so I never had much shopping to do except what I could find online, and this year there seems to be more sales online which works for me, but this has felt like BF week, not BF, and everything I'm shopping for (which isn't much) has been in stock which has been nice, but part of the fun was the hunt for the bargains.

    Do Chromecasts go on sale during Black Friday?

    I don't know if I need a Chromecast or a Roku, but I'm trying to figure out an inexpensive way to stream stuff from a tablet and desktop computer to a tv. Right now I have an Amazon FireStick but seem unable to stream from my desktop to the tv. Does anyone know what I need to buy and if it'll be on sale on BF.
