I'M SO EXCITED!!! I've been waiting on this. Thank you pogiporkchop!

I'm a Prime member, but personally, I think the more deals they make for "Prime Members Only", the more they will alienate customers that aren't already Prime members. Their deals aren't always the best in town, like they once were, so I think most people will just go elsewhere. They seem to be shooting themselves in the foot, in my opinion.

That would be an interesting comparison, but in order to give us what we're looking for there we would need to know what the regular prices were in 2004/2005.

I would imagine they all do, but I know for sure the Fire Stick has parental controls.

That first year Walmart had their Secret Saturday Sales was great! I say that, but I don't even remember what kind of deals they had. LOL. I remember getting a great deal on a desktop computer. What I remember most is just how "secret" the sales were. The floor people at my local WM had no idea what I was talking about and had to call management. haha. I wouldn't have known anything about it, if not for Gottadeal.

I am almost done with the grandbabies. I'm also done with my youngest (he's joining the Marines, so he's just getting a good laptop this year - I had no idea what else to get him). I've got a few other things, but I still have a long way to go.

That's my anniversary too!

I'm hoping so.

I recently bought the Firestick, and actually just plugged it in this week. So far, I love it. It's much easier to use than I expected. And, as a Prime member, all of my music is on Amazon (I no longer use iTunes at all) so I really love that I can go to my music and my playlists right there on my TV instead of either hooking up speakers to my Kindle or phone or mirroring the Kindle to my TV (which was a nuisance). **disclaimer - I have never streamed Netflix or Amazon video from any device, have only watched Amazon video directly on the Kindle or mirrored the Kindle to the TV so my experience comes from no experience. I can't compare the Firestick to any other device.

I was so excited to come here and see all the dedicated threads up! I may be a little too into this BF on GD thing.

*original post deleted* - didn't mean to post here - sorry.

How's your daughter doing?

My youngest has joined the Marines and leaves for boot camp in October. Since for the foreseeable future he will be living in barracks, I could not come up with anything to get him! I finally decided on a nice laptop, and that will just have to be his only gift this year. I might get him a Google Play gift card as well. Anyway, I found a good deal for that last week so I'm pretty much done with him. Actually ON Black Friday, I will be looking for a GPS for the dil, and I'm hoping to score the Amazon Echo at an amazing price for myself .

Me Me Me!

The 100 day mark is less than 2 weeks away!!!

I was doing that silly work thing and missed the $75 32 in TV. I wonder what the chances are of there being another one later.

LOL, safe to say I'd be first in line!

I know it's not even July yet, but for some reason I have had such a craving for Black Friday on Gottadeal the last week or so! It's like I need to caption some photos, and complain about store hours, and share stories and advice and pictures. I've been reading through past years message boards, just trying to get my fix. SIGH, , 4 more months.

Just 335 days Too soon?

You are very welcome, I enjoyed it! And thank YOU for my SS gifts. I loved it all, and the towels and pot holders have seen a lot of use already . Also, Thank you again to Swampbaby for my ornaments! They looked great on my tree.

I'm not sure where you can buy them, other than online, but they make those puzzles that you put money or gift cards or something inside. The recipient has to solve the puzzle to get to the prize. I bet you could get them at Ross, or Marshal's. Some place like that.

I received the (cleverly worded) email as well.

It occurred to me the other day that for the first time in my life, Santa will not be coming to my house this year. Growing up, we always went out to look at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve, and while we were gone Santa came (we did this because we had to get up and go to someone else's house for Christmas day, and my mom didn't want us to be rushed with our new toys). We continued that even after we "knew", and I continued the same tradition with my own children. When my oldest son got married and their babies were born, they lived with me. This year, they moved in to their own home. Obviously, Santa won't come to Grama's house AND their house, so everything under my tree on Christmas Eve will have come from me. This saddens me a little. I tried to explain this to my youngest boy (19), and he totally doesn't get it. So, am I being totally stupid? LOL

I didn't even know you could do that. That is awesome!
