  1. Gimmics my man. I worked at Circuit City when I was in college, and one thing I learned is that the big ticket items are used to draw people in to the store to buy other items (most people should know that part by now) and the reason they can offer them so cheap is A, lack of workmanship and B, very limited quanaties.

    It is also why they don't offer some of those things online. Treid to do most of the shopping online. Even that needs patience.

  2. Just got home from a very quiet dead Wal-Mart. Parking lot had less cars than a weekday. Only line in the store was for the 50" TV which is what I went for. GONE!! They were gone by 3 AM when the tickets were handed out. All eleven (11) of them. Why? If that is such a good deal why only 11? Everwhere else in the store the sales associates were bored out of there mind standing gaurd waiting until 5 AM. Talk with some of them just so they would have a chance of pace. A couple of them said they wanted to lie down on the pallet of bird seed.

     

    I was also amazed at how many items were leftovers from previously sales. A whole pallet of LG Blueray players, 24" TVs, printers, etc.. Heard a couple of them say, we just located these. These items were suppose to be out earlier.

  4. Placed an order through K Mart online. Order the Samsung Tablet. Got confirmation order number. Got Confirmation e-mail. I even got a phone call from my credit card company asking me if we indeed made a purchase for this item. Went out shopping only to come home to an e-mail telling me they CANCELLED my order due to a problem. So I went to the site again and it says it is out of stock now.
  5. so since walmart didnt say to much about things being online (no promises)...we went. WOW...I think my entire community was there! There was a ton of 10pm things still in the clear wrap. People just tore them open and loaded their carts. Remarkably we could pay the BF prices at 8pm for 10 pm stuff. Im am morbidly curious though if they will put the items on-line as of midnight?? The only thing we missed out on was the Vizio HDMI cable for $8

     

    Yeah, we went tonight as well. Got there about 8 PM. Picked up a few things and then stood in line for 1 1/2 hrs for the 32" TV. Now home and I don't really want to go through it again at 4 - somethin for 5 AM deals.
