Went to my local Walmart, as always the guy there is such a ahole. Makes me feel like I'm bothering him to ask for assistance. Nevertheless, he only had one ad for "pre black Friday sale" that starts at 8am this morning. No $115 TV was found in all of its 3 page glory. Checked the page count and all was well there. Looked at me like I was crazy when I told him the price he said he has nothing like that going on sale tomorrow. I didn't get to check the model number, but they had 3 Emerson TV's on the shelf and 3 Elements. I might take another stab at a different Walmart tonight. I'm in Florida btw, no laws here of that nature as far as I know. Man I hate these night crew employees, have some care in the work you do.

Not quite close enough to return in time for Thanksgiving... then again Thanksgiving is in GA this year. Too bad I'm car pooling. Lol

I am a elite member, but what about the extended holiday return period? With that doesn't it not matter? I miss the camp out, I'm trying to gather up some friends to do it this year and just buy things for friends as I don't really need anything. I was surprised to see that Onkyo receiver on the ad. So either way I'll take advantage of that somehow. Be it online or in store pickup. I can't recall if bestbuy online does in store pickup during d-day (is when the sale goes live on the ad). You still in Jax?

Yeah I was thinking about that. I do see that the return policy says till Janurary 15th 2015, but everyone in store is telling me 15 days.

What is Best Buy's policy with price matching? I just purchased the Onyko receiver yesterday and now its going to be on sale on Black Friday. Will they match the price for me, or do I have to return and buy on that day? Their Holiday Price match policy does say from Nov 3rd to Dec 24th, but not "items for sale Thanksgiving Day through the Monday after Thanksgiving, whether offered by Best Buy or a competitor." is also stated on their Site in another location.

Where?

Kindle, the prices are droping, but still coming soon.

If anyone is looking for a great windows tablet, check out the K3011 at Office Depot.com. Its no powerhouse, but handles multi tasking and 1080p video without missing a beat. 1.5lb's 11.6in Screen 64GB HD 2GB MEM microSD Bluetooth 4.0 Windows 8 All at 249$ right now, don't let the refurbished scare you, I've bought 3 and their all good to go. 1 Year warranties, to which I verified online with their serial numbers.

Sarasota FL at University and Best Buy has one tent as well as of this morning, some old woman.

Yeah because its soo much more awesome when the employees are like 'its happening'. When they see it first thing in the morning. LOL

You get asked all sorts of stupid questions, why are you in line, what are you buying, (I usually tell them iPad's). You have a-holes who mess with your tent if your inside it. I usually don't have the employees interact with me, maybe a manager might come out and offer me the ad (seriously?). At night its the best, because the monkeys come out to play and drive by with train horns. The best parts, are you have bathrooms, Lol. Other than that, the ability to stake out the store prior to closing as they are starting to setup is always good. These times are stupid, out of hand. I won't be going instore unless I have an issue getting anything online. I didn't camp last year due to unneeded items, but this year no way due to this. Earliest I ever did was Tuesday at midnight two years ago and I was first with my 3 friends. Last year, I heard it was Tuesday evening for the first person. This year it will be earlier as word spreads. Have to start taking days off from work and using your vacation up... gezz..

We're sorry, our tax calculation system is temporarily down. You can continue with your order, but the tax you see may not be the final amount. If you prefer, you can try your order again later. Lulz, what a joke.

I wasn't planning on getting anything but wanted to see how popular some items where. Remember folks, even thoe its online you can still call in to make orders.

Not bad, nothing don't really need anything except a bigger TV, but I'm not seeing anything that is 55-60in worth wild. Good laptops, surpised not to see tablets marked down cheaper.

Ill be in Sarasota, FL. But unlike the past 8 years, I won't be camping in line. Last year I think was enough for me at my store. Long story short, just wasn't run very well at all (BestBuy). So I've deemed the need no longer. I still enjoy the season and will still shop, but most of my efforts will be put towards online sales rather than instore. I'll definatly do some line drive bys

I for one hate these earlier times. But ofcourse, everyyear sales will be better they will say. And will further push the envelope.

Done

I call BS, target will jump in.

I ordered my blurays and printer online due to questionable instore stock. The printer and 2 out of my 5 blurays shipped. I found all 5 blurays and hide them in store. Found out that 3 of my blurays got back - ordered. Went back just now to Best Buy and my stash was still there, and purchased the 3 that got back ordered. But I defiantly experienced the loading issues on Best Buy's website. Always a gamble.

I may have been able to get everything I want. But I arrived in my local Best Buy at 12am, was first in line. Only to find uninformed and unorganized employees. No one knew anything of the ad that was onsale. And I was told false statements that practically ruined the experience for me. Surprised to see this after having much more organized experiences in the past. Long story short, I had to wait 2 hours in line at Home Theater for my 42in TV. And I was only 10th in line there, if that at all. Absolutely un-acceptable. They had 1 register checking out anyone and everyone in the back. And the one person that was taking and filling in orders was too busy helping someone who had no idea why they were there or what they needed. Let along spoke English. Pretty much the top 10 people in line outside were the people around me and behind me. And we all waited and didn't move in the line. I ended up getting out of the store at 2:30am. Couldn't believe it. Just wanted to get the heck out of there. Absolutely ruined my hopes for getting to any other store. Just wanted to get home. There were even customers that started to Police the line to turn people away since there weren't any Best Buy employees doing it. When you finally got up to the ticket lady, you then had to wait even longer for the long checking out anyone and everyone in Home Theater. Just stupid. I can understand a hour wait. Its what i've experience in the past. But this was just un-acceptable. I e-mailed the store director, but I don't expect any response. This store didn't even give tickets for the 24in TV. Made us go get it, saying they had enough. Yeah if they had enough customers wouldn't have been asking "Where did you get that?" 5minutes into the store opening. Even thoe the Best Buy website and ad said ticket required to purchase this item. What pissed me off the most was when the employees told me I could check out with my TV at Geek Squad to help expedite my transaction, but when we get turned away. We only get to see people checking out with computers in Home Theater. Bah.

And here comes that rain... btw another news crew came lol

Don't send it south.

News is here :/

Good luck with that. Might net about 30$ per item not including the TV. Assuming they go eBay. And if they do Craigslist won't net a quick profit. Hope they fail.

In line. :) Rep. Can't wait for employee reactions in morning. I and someone else got here after hours. Edit; bah, starting to get hot inside the tent. Stupid FL weather. http://i520.photobucket.com/albums/w327/Klownicle/IMG_20111123_001845.jpg
