With some of the early sales starting already, are you buying something you normally buy each year?

hot cocoa. I finish wrapping the presents and then I...

reheating my Wendy's chicken parm sandwich. Then I...

garlic fries and a peppermint frosty. Then I...

Happy December!

I've always allowed it on everything and I noticed a few weeks ago there was some italicized font concerning substitution so I read it. That's when I noticed the verbiage had changed on it. I tested it out as I've always got at least 3 substitutions in every order and sure enough, they tried to charge me the higher price. I just cancelled the items when they sent out the "we have substitutions" email. Now, I will say it's kind of hit or miss. Some items subbed were the same price, and others were at a different price so it's a ymmv thing for now. They might just be testing this in some areas? I believe if you go to the website though the verbiage has changed in the FAQ.

They are actually doing this now. I started noticing it on my grocery orders a few weeks ago but haven't had one yet on something that wasn't grocery. I'd be pretty upset with a price difference like that.

That's the thing...Walmart and Target seem to be moving to this format. These aren't pre-sales. They ARE the sales. Retailers are moving to a whole month of sales vs. just having the Black Friday only sales.

https://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/search.php You can search at the top right hand corner of the page and if there is an ad item listing that we have typed up, it will show up there. It's not set by categories. We did use to have a Black Friday Chart for electronics that you could search by categories for select items. It's under revision at the moment and has been for a couple of years. Not every ad is an ad that we type up though, so there may be some regional or smaller stores where the items don't show up in the search.

Are you referring to the Black Friday charts for electronics or just anything in general?

Apparently all of the retailers have decided not to participate this year, lol.

This one is a fun contest. Blast from the past. My older 2 were just toddlers when this was out so I recognize a lot of the toys they had Hopping on Brad's idea of the DS because I would have jumped on that back then for sure, or the V-Smile Pocket.

Yep. I tend to shop a little all year round anyway but I'm definitely almost finished this year. We did a lot of major requests last year though so I felt like this year is a bunch of small items, like clothing, shoes, etc.

I'm in!
