I just checked the battery prices at Lowe's, and the 60 pack is currently $17.98. It says that price is good until 11/23, so HOPEFULLY my worry is unfounded and there will be a BF ad.

One year, early on in our BF shopping experience, my sister and I headed to KayBee Toys at the Mall in the next town over from where we lived. We get to the mall and there are NO cars in the parking lot. We're thinking this is actually great because we'll be able to get what we want because we are there SO early. As it got closer and closer to the time for the sale to start, there's still no one showing up to the mall. This was before everyone had a cell phone, but I happened to work for Southwestern Bell Mobile Systems so I had one as an employee perk (got a whole 30 minutes a month! LOL), so we called information to get the number to the store to make sure we had the sale times correct. Turns out there was not even a KayBee Toys AT that mall. So we booked it from Norman to OKC, but of course by the time we go there the line was so long there was no chance of getting in. Toys R Us was right across the street from the Mall, so we headed over there to wait for them to open their doors. I can't remember what we were after that year, but the experience is one we aren't likely to forget.

I was lucky enough that my grandson's desired games were both in Walmart and/or Target's ad this year. One wants Luigi's Mansion, and it's $20 off at both stores. The other wants 5 Nights at Freddy's (he's a little ghoulish, LOL) and it is in the WM ad for just $20.

My son, who definitely does NOT pay attention to BF ads normally, looked through the Academy ad last night. He looked at me and said "these are Black Friday deals?!? These aren't good deals at all!" So, while I said it's all relative, and thought I just didn't need anything on sale, perhaps I have been corrected.

Lowe's is really pushing the "Black Friday should be more than one day" narrative in their commercials, so I'm wondering if they will have a BF ad this year. I'm waiting on it too though, so I sure hope so.

I went ahead and went to the store. They adjusted the price. The cashier was very sweet but the manager she asked about it acted like it ticked her off. She said "it's ringing up regular 32.99". But online and the shelf tag say 20.99. She closed her eyes and said "Just do it". I tried to say I wasn't trying to be argumentative and she certainly didn't have to adjust the price, I was buying it regardless, but she totally ignored me and walked away. So I didn't say a word when the sweet cashier took the 40% off the sale price instead of the regular price (which was just a difference of pennies, but still).

The Monster High Ghoulmobile says 40% off in the ad. The reg price is $20.99 and the sale price is 19.79. Have I forgotten how to math? **I wonder if it's actually 40% off in store, and only 6% off online. Hmmm. Maybe I'll get dressed and go to Target. $8 is worth the trip to me.

Definitely doing better than I am. I usually try to have my ornament shipped out before Thanksgiving, since most folk decorate that weekend. But I haven't even gotten started yet.

It's all relative. If you're looking for something that's on sale, you've found a great deal. If you've got it all, not so much :).

I could have saved myself $20 on the AirPods if I had only been a little patient, lol. I really expected $189 to be the norm for them this year.

It's fine, really. I think we update the cards list at least once every year

Thank you so much for the scans!

There will be more deals released for preview on the 20th, maybe they are just holding on to them for now?

Congratulations winners!

I hate wrapping. And I'm afraid if I wrap as I go, I'll second guess my list and have to UNwrap to make sure I actually wrapped everything . So, I schedule 1 full day and my sister comes over to help (unlike me, she loves to wrap). She gets me through it every year, LOL.
