Here is the press release: http://www.bby.com/2010/11/04/best-buy-offers-ways-to-shop-early-and-save-big-this-weekend/

Welcome to the community! In years past Best Buy has had some good satellite radio deals.

I think by the time the stores get the ads Brad will already have them. Once the ad leaves the security of the marketing dept who puts the ad together anything goes and there is risk for a link. Unless you are WM who posts armed guards at the printing press.

Welcome to the community! Apple does not really do anything for BF. They will have some prices lowered but not to make a big difference. As a general rule Apple sets their own prices. For example if you buy a macbook it will be the same price in the Apple store and Apple Resellers like Best Buy. If you want a discount you are better off finding a college student in your family who can get a good discount or open your own small business and Apple will give you a discount then.

Your guess us as good as mine. I am thinking this sale will replace what they did last year. I can see WM putting out another release next week focusing on toys or home good next Saturday. Stay posted to GD!

I did a dry run last week. Everything works on my end. Your new walls look great!

WM just posted some toy deals in a press release http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?187810-Walmart-Unwraps-Its-quot-Top-Toys-quot-with-Unbeatable-Savings-for-the-Holiday-quot

In years past it has been 40% off.

I never saw any value in the contest. It limited you.

Here are some deals they posted today http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?187810-Walmart-Unwraps-Its-quot-Top-Toys-quot-with-Unbeatable-Savings-for-the-Holiday-quot

Welcome to the community! This is the right place to post. In years past most stores start holiday hours the week of Thanksgiving. For example I know Best Buy stays open until 10pm the week of Thanksgiving in years past.

Here is the press release from Bentonville. http://walmartstores.com/pressroom/news/10422.aspx

I would dress up as Col. Harland Sanders. I think it would be funny.

Great videos everyone! Keep posting! [video=youtube;Jo58xkaADzc]

Hi Everyone! I had a idea and Brad and I would like to know your thoughts on the idea. The idea is to do a 2 hour live webcast around 2 weeks before Black Friday. During the webcast you can submit your Black Friday questions through a chat feature and I will answer them live. The questions would be anything Black Friday. What time to get in line?, what is good or bad in a ad? and stuff like that. If this is something you would like to see and participate in comment below and also tell me what day of the week would work. I would be doing this in the evening. If this does work out we will be doing a second live webcast the week of Black Friday to cover the Wal Mart and other major ads. Post your comments below!

Here is one I did a few days ago. http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?185923-2010-Black-Friday-Webcast-Watch-Now!

Welcome to the community! At my BB they have all of the big items as in TVs and appliances in the car audio install bays. When I got my TV I paid for it inside and then was told to drive around where it was loaded in my car by BB employees. I would call your local BB and ask them.
