  1. I haven't received your message yet. I don't know if it takes a while to come through, or if you should send it again. I have it now.
  2. http://forums.gottadeal.com/topic/266564-previous-years-ads-dates-posted-ad-item-lists-ad-scans/ First of all, welcome to the forums! Also, this link will take you to previous years' listings. You can search for the appliance you're looking for, and see who had the best price last year. Chances are, the deals will very similar this year as they were last.
  3. Right now, the ad I'm most looking forward to is the next one!
  4. It's never too early! When people tell me "It's not even Halloween yet!", I tell them that I am a great multi-tasker and I am perfectly capable of loving Christmas AND Halloween AT THE SAME TIME! LOL
  5. I didn't receive a book either . I really just wanted something for my grandsons to look through and find what they want for Christmas. They're getting big enough to decide what to ask Santa for.
  6. Well, they're giving you candy canes! What more could you possibly want from them???
  7. My BIL is my hard one. He is way into hunting, but I hate to get him the same ole camo stuff every year. I try to find him stuff slightly outside of the box, that no one else would think of. For example, he loves peanuts, so one year I got him a big glass jar (this thing was like 2.5 feet tall), and filled it with peanuts in the shell. He loved it, and the jar sits by the kitchen door in their house. Another year I got him something small, AND peanuts to refill the jar.
  8. I have been listening to Christmas music off and on since Christmas in July! The last couple weeks it's become more on than off.
  9. I will put mine up Thanksgiving weekend. Hopefully my son and his friend are in their own apartment by then, so I have their rooms to move stuff that's currently in my way. (Yes, I know, that blows my "mother of the year" award. LOL).
  10. http://www.qvc.com/fg_APTSV_Amazon_103016_V1.content.html?cm_ite=MAIN_FAUXPAGE_7AO:AmazonElectronics&cm_ven=APTSV&cm_cat=AmazonFireTabletsSetsTSV_Week4416EM_20161025_ELECTRONICS_CAMP1041&cm_pla=A10to49MBS_QVCActive_Category_2102452198&p1=E7A2D59B-80C8-4F53-AB39-E3F6AD93F764&p2=B5F7374F-962B-4F61-88FF-9CFA8F846AEE&cvosrc=email.cheetahmail.2102452198 The QVC Today's Special Value for 10/30 is 2 7" Fire tablets with cases and software packs (not sure what the software pack is) for $89.95. Shipping is $5.50, but if you've never placed an order at QVC before you can use coupon code FIVE4U to get $5 off. You can shop the presale now.
  11. I downloaded the Cartwheel app, but I am not real clear on what it is or how it works. I rarely shop at Target.
  12. Really wanting me to cut that tiny hope thread, aren't you? LOL
  13. I was reading all the comments at the link you posted. I guess that page is just for BB employees? Bless their hearts. Anyway, one of them said their GM mentioned something about possibly changing it. And then another linked to this: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/electronics/black-friday/pcmcat225600050002.c?id=pcmcat225600050002. On their own website, they reference 11/25! I know, I know, it is what it is and they'll be open at 5:00 Thursday. But, I'm going to hold out that tiniest thread of hope that they'll be the first major retailer to wait until Friday morning.
  14. My FAVORITE contest! 1 - "Everybody say HEE-EYY" 2 - "What!?! I don't have a Nerf problem! I can quit anytime I want." 3 - "Oh, quit pouting. Maybe Santa will bring you those booty shorts with 'PINK' on the butt.
  15. So, I just chatted with someone in their customer service to find out where to request a copy in the mail. She said they had not received any information on the catalog yet this year!?! I requested, and received, the toy catalog last year so I was hoping I would automatically receive one again, but I haven't seen anything yet.
  16. Has anyone ever ordered from Daily Sale? Are they pretty reliable? I know they are owned by Amazon, but so is Woot and I did not have a good experience with them. I ask because they had the Copper Chef pan set this weekend for $39. I bought the same set from QVC last month for $70. I went ahead and ordered the one from Daily Sale with the intention of returning the QVC, but I don't want to jump the gun if I'm not going to get my order or if it's likely to be something other than advertised. Thank you!
  17. I read this weekend that the Walmart ad will drop 11/9. I don't know how true that is, because I read several people in a comments section saying that but I could not find anything in the actual article that backed it up.
  18. 1 more week to sign up! If you have sent your info, please check the lists in the original post and make sure I have you down. I don't want to miss anyone!
  19. As far as which Kindle we recommend - what are you looking to use it for? Do you want an eReader, or a full service tablet? ETA - I just saw your post on the other thread, it looks like you are looking for an eReader. The only Kindles I've had have been Fire tablets, so I can't really help you with the readers.
  20. I feel the same Len. Is BF what it was 5-7 years ago? Nope. Will it ever be again? Nope. So, it's not the same, but that doesn't mean it can't still be FUN! Our traditions had to change to adapt to the new BF dynamic, but rather than let those traditions go, we did adapt. I love love love the build up to BF here on Gottadeal. It's part of the tradition for me, and I look forward to it all year long. Then when the big day/night/day gets here, my sister, daughter in law, and I go out and act silly and laugh and sing and play and generally have a BLAST ushering in the Christmas season. The crowds are different, the deals are different, the times are definitely different, but the fun is still there if you look for it.
  21. rhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B0143T9WVG/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=A5W7XCZLYXTD&coliid=I2HY3X6EQ5Y7O0&psc=1 I've had this 6 qt in my Wish List on Amazon for several days. I can't decide if it's really the best one for me. We do a LOT of Christmas cookies, but that's the only time I would have to have that much capacity. If I buy a less expensive one, I could also get the flex edge beater, or maybe the grinder attachment. But, the smaller less expensive ones aren't as powerful or as steady (according to reviews I've read). This is how my mind has been going back and forth for a week! LOL. Decisions decisions.
  22. I do this as well. Almost any semi-expensive purchase gets price checked against Amazon first.
  23. You do not need an Amazon Music account. You don't even have to have Prime. But you can play your music from those if you have them. The Dot does not have a good speaker, like its parent the Echo, so if you are going to play music you will want to connect it to external speakers. If your brother would want it for music, I would suggest the Echo. Otherwise, it's basically an assistant like Siri or Cortana. You can use it as an alarm clock, a timer, ask it simple Google-esqe questions, etc. I am considering getting one for my mother because it has an emergency skill. If she falls and can't get to a phone, she can call out to Alexa and Alexa will call up to so many pre-programmed #s and say something to the effect of "Mom is in trouble, please check on her immediately". I hope that helps.
  24. YES! This was part of our tradition for YEARS. We would go on Thursday night, after we were through looking at the ads and making our plans for Friday morning.
  25. my kids' stockings have always been filled with candy. I decided a few years ago to quit buying all that candy, when I still have a big bowl full the next Halloween. Since then, the stockings have looked a little sad. All of these posts have inspired me to try to make the stockings more special .
