Just picked up the console from the store and arrived home. Got there about 12:05 and waited in line about 10 minutes to get in the door. Went straight to the gaming area and picked one up. They had about 40 or so in a stack. Got through the checkout line in about 20 minutes. I went back to the gaming area just to see how many they had left and they still had about 20 available. That about sums up my Black Friday experience. All of my other shopping will be done online.

I have passed on everything so far. I want to buy something bad but I can't find anything I HAVE to have. It is driving me crazy. I will probably go to BestBuy at midnight tonight to get the XBox 360 Holiday bundle for $199 (I can order still order it online but I want to play it tomorrow). Would have liked to have gotten one of the TV deals but I have no TVs I need to replace right now. I'm stocked up on flash drives and memory cards. Darn it!!!!

It's still available in my cart. I may pull the trigger if it's still available closer to 8:00. With this many available online I would assume there should be enough for me to get one at the store at midnight. This is a decent deal, but not a great deal (since you can find it at Amazon and other retailers for $249.00 outside of Black Friday). With the tax that Best Buy will charge me, I would only be paying $38.00 to get it from Amazon and I can get it with 2-day shipping.

It's still available on line. As a Premier Silver member I can get free shipping, but I think I'll just wait until around midnight at head over to my Best Buy and get it there so I can use it right away instead of waiting a week for it to be delivered. May pick up Need for Speed for the PS3 while I'm there.

I will still go to BB on Black Friday (probably right about midnight) to see if I can get the $199 Xbox 360 deal. I'm not going to be too upset if I can't since Amazon.com is running the same deal for $249.00. I'm a Prime member so I get free 2-day shipping and there will not be any sales tax, so the difference in price is only $38. Now I just have to debate if $38 is worth me spending $4.00 in gas and standing in line at the register for 90 minutes at 1:00 A.M. Hmmm.... Amazon is starting to sound better.

Thanks partner. You have given me hope. I guess I'll be heading over there right at midnight--not gonna wait for hours in line. Hopefully they'll have some in stock about 12:15. Wish me well !!

Very disappointed that the Xbox 360 bundle is not one of the items. I guess I can only hope that I can order it at midnight online on Black Friday. I am really hoping I don't have to go into the store.

Thank you!! I don't know why I was thinking the 19th was Tuesday. You definitely saved me!

I'm in the same boat as your freebird. This is the one Black Friday deal I want. I'm a BB Premier Silver member and I'm hoping this is one of the items on the early access sale that we get that starts on Tuesday.

Being an avid gamer, I can tell you that the XBox is nowhere near extinction. It will be a minimum of 3-4 years before you see a new XBox. This is simply a Christmas season price. You have no worries in buying this product.

My local Walmart in Frederick, MD didn't open until 6:00. I got there at 7:37 as I only wanted to get the Xbox 360 as a back-up. There were about 10-12 people in front of me. They had plenty of Xbox 360s left. I got my ticket and the salesperson asked if I wanted any of the other items, which I didn't. Up through 8:00 they had laptops left. The only thing they did ran out of for before 8:00 was the 42" Sharp TVs. They must have had at least 40-50 of the $298 laptops. I was quite surprised that they had so much of everything left when I got there. I'm sure that word of mouth will spread like wildfire for the next sale so you'll have to be there early.

check www.monoprice.com they have the best prices by far and good quality merchandise

From where? Is the sale still going on?

They just had 2 in stock and I waited too long and now they are OOS again. I'll have to keep trying.

Shows as in stock, but selling for $59.99
