  1. Good luck trying to find these! Went to TRU...sold out. Went to Wal-Mart...only carry "City," "Country," and "Beach," so no price match. Went to Best Buy...don't carry 'cause they're discontinued.

     

    Figured my last shot would be Target. They had 2 so I grabbed them and got in line. Picked the best of the 2 'cause they look the same. Got home and realized it was "Country"! The lady didn't even check and I was too tired and hungry to notice. The ad is really small, so it's hard to tell which ones they are.

  2. Holy cow, that was awesome! I got all this for $16.60:

  3. HI all, this will be my first year doing the black friday thing and I was looking for tips. My intention is to buy things that are the best value and then resell them on ebay. Has anyone tried this and do you know what the biggest deals are?

    Yeah, you and about 5 million other people. :no: Not worth it, IMO.

     

    When the Wii's and PS3's first came out, I had the same brilliant idea. We got in line on Friday night for the sale on Saturday and got two Wii's and a PS3.

     

    It was right before Black Friday and there were thousands of listings on eBay, so we decided to wait until after BF to post our ads so that all the people who couldn't find one would bid on ours.

     

    Long story short, we managed to sell one Wii for $700, but after PayPal fees, eBay listing fees, re-listing fees, we took the other Wii and PS3 back to the store for a refund. I think we ended up with maybe $100 profit. The shear volume of people doing that exact same is unbelieveable.
