I've seen some great deals at Lowes and you can't beat 18 months of 0% financing.

Thank you! My mom was just admiring ours yesterday.

If I have to hear that Red Shoes song one more time, I swear, I am going to take a hostage.
How about:

whatever MP3 player you get my advice is to make sure you can charge it by plugging it into the computer USB port. Saves a lot on buying batteries all the time.
Interesting. I prefer a battery since I then don't have to bother with having to pull it out of my workout bag and charge it. I also love the Fm tuner.
Sansa rules.

I haven't seen a thank you topic for this year yet so allow me to start it.
Thanks to Brad and all the folks that support him in this yearly effort.

Same here. Everything I needed became available on-line including the HP laser that was $90 off with free shipping.
Slept in until 9 and am having coffee before heading off to the gym.

So many kind people in here!
I buy mp3 players all year long and donate them to the local toy drive. I've never heard of Toys for Teens but that is a great idea. The older kids who go without are often forgotten at Christmas. That's why I do the mp3 players.

Every year this comes up, and the posters split between those who say "we earned the tickets and we can do as we please" and those who say "we waited in line longer than the buyers and should get first dibs on any extra tickets". Like years past I say, "get your rumps up there earlier than the sellers if you want a guaranty of availability." You weren't willing to camp out as long, so too bad, you risk not getting an item. Someone else was willing to work harder than you (i.e. stand in line longer) to get something. That's what this country's economic system used to be all about. If you have to have something, get there on Thursday morning before 10 am. Then you'll get it. Saving places (anthing more than 1 for 1 replacement) and line cutting is another matter and should be met with public flogging
There's also people like me who 1. no way in hell would camp out for two friggin days for anything and 2. hope it rains/snows on Thanksgiving day (right after my roadrace).

A friend used to give "Meal a Month" certificates.
Every month, she would cook up a really nice meal and deliver it to the recipient.
That was very popular!

That's link isn't a grill. It's a rotisserie.They dont go on sale for Blackfriday in the summer you can catch a great deal @ those places.
I'll still keep an eye out for ya
Amazon has one. . . .
I got a great deal on one a couple years ago at LNT, of all places.

I'll check that out. Any opinions on the HP printers in that ad?Last year on BF we got a Brother laser jet from Staples. LOVE ITTTT!!!!! A year later and I've still never replaced the toner! And I print atleast 5 full pages of black text 5 days a week :)
I think the last I checked we has printed over 2k pages. close to 3k. Toner is extremely cheap. I purchased an extra cartridge of it a few months ago from inkjet superstore for only 27 dollars. Yes, you can't print pictures on a b&w laser jet...but that's pretty much a given...Staples has one just like it onsale on BF again this year. 89.98

I don't want to print photos.
I'd go for a color if the deal was right.
Can I get a decent color laser for less then $150?
It's going to be used as a home office printer. We retired this year and I lost access to my laser printer at work.
No network. I just hook my laptop up to it when I need to print.
-
OK folks, need your opinions. I'm done with inkjet and tired of being screwed on ink prices.
Am thinking laser printer.
Any suggestions/recommendations for a laser printer on Black Friday?
Thanks!

It's junk. Save your money.

That's exactly how it should be handled.Many years ago I worked retail. (yes, for mininum wage) I worked for "Roses" I loved, loved, loved my job... I worked for great managers that firmly believed "the customer was ALWAYS right, even when they were wrong." The managers treated all the employees like family, but any disrespect... toward customers, or co workers was dealt with quickly and harshly at times.
Our store was always at the top in sales for our region. I think a lot of the service problems we see in stores now has a lot moreto do with the leadership than the paychecks people are bringing home.
You lead by example and you have zero tolerance for bad behavior.
-
Which is exactly why money has been proven to be nothing more than a short-term motivator.
-
As someone who ran my own business and hired and fired more people than I care to remember, I hate to be the one to inform those that think that wages are somehow tied to better service that they are incredibly naive.
In all my years of experience, my firsthand account is that it's just not so.
There are ways to improve customer service, increasing pay isn't one of them.

I've lost count of how many items I've bought from them. Never an issue.
