  1. I was hoping that the early openings would not work out for retailers. I wish they would just go back to opening at 4 or 5am on FRIDAY.

    I didn't go out Thurs. but Fri. morning at 5am there was NOBODY shopping. My son works at 5Below and went in for opening at 5am and was sent home because nobody was shopping.

    But I just read an article that said sales this weekend are expected to be/on track to be 2% higher than BF weekend last year so I guess they will keep doing it this way

    :(

  2. @Walmart I got

    2 32" Emerson TVs- $188 each

    Samsung Galaxy Prevail Android- $69

    Dual DVD player- $59

    LG wifi Blu Ray- $89

    SNL Board Game- $3.88

     

    Gamestop- PS3 160 bundle w/2 games- $199

     

     

    I DID NOT like the new midnight sale time. Walmart was disorganized and didn't seem to know how to unveil the products at midnight. What I did like- Walmart had plenty of everything. There were plenty of the TVs, Laptops, DVRs, etc... All of their hot items including the sub $200 laptops were plentiful.

  3. Walmart- We got:

    3G. 250G Harddrive HP laptoop: $298

    iPod Touch w/$50 iTunes card: $195 (got 4 but needed 5)

    Nintendo DS $99

    PJ pants and PJs

     

    Target:

    2 screen DVD [player- $88

    Memorex iPod player/charger/CD player $49

    Nikon Cool Pix $88

    Lady's sweaters $8.88

     

    Pretty successful day- it was really disorganized at Walmart (even more than usual) but still worth it.

  4. Hi- My DH wants a GPS (maps & directions gadget) I know NOTHING about these things. He says he does not really care about voice activated but he would rather not have to pay a monthly fee.

     

    What is the best BF deal out there for a low end (under $200) GPS gadget???

     

    Thanks in advance for any help I receive on this. I am really clueless about these things:confused:

  5. I went - I didn't realize there was any funny business with their ad-

    It was very organized- the salespeople were totally helpful-

    I got there at 10:00- they still had the $349 laptops (after rebate)

    I got an emachines bundled package- for $399 (after rebates)

    I also got a 27" lcd flat panel tv/computer monitor for $499 (post rebates)

    It is cool- you can watch tv, work on the computer, or do a split screen and have half the screen tv- the other half computer-

  6. That is so funny because I actually really do have the Mission Impossible theme song running through my head from the time I wake up until the early birds are over every Black Friday, I always try to hit 4 stores before 11:00 and that song is so appropriate!
  7. You can join certain shopping clubs with a 30 day free or $1 membership and buy gift cards for 80% of their value. I have done this many times. If you like the service you can keep it for a monthly fee but if you cancel after 30 days you can keep your giftcards.
