chartse1 Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I have never been to TRU for Black Friday, but I am interested in the Apple IPOD with the $50 GC for my son. Do people normally line up early at TRU? Will this draw people there early?
emilygracesmom Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I believe that it will draw a crowd. And yes people line up early at TRU. So if you're looking to score one of those I'd definitely show up early and plan on waiting a while.
Elmck Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 I know 2 relatives that will be trying to score one
chartse1 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Posted November 20, 2009 Walmart will have a $50 ITunes GC, but I have plenty of those. So, I am more interested in the TRU. Since that is all I want, I guess I could leave after I get it (or not) at about 1 a.m. and get in line somewhere else. Not sure where yet though.
MassMomx5 Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 It is a good deal and I am betting lots will go after it. I want it as well, but I am going to do the Walmart deal I think with the $50 I-Tunes gift card. TRU never seems to have enough of the "hot" electronics items, and in the 13 years I have been going, I have yet to be able to score any of the hot electronic deals, and I show up 1-2 hours early.
kjunea Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 I showed up 2 hours early a couple of years ago for a Zune deal they had. I was the 10th person in line. My store only had 3 of them. I do not go to TRU for electronics anymore!!

I do not go to TRU for electronics anymore!!Ya that has been my experience as well. A few years ago they had Mp3 players for like $30 or something if I remember correctly. I too was like the 10th person in line, waited for like 2 hours, and they only had like 5 of them, so needless to say I did not get one. I now avoid TRU electronics on black friday.
chartse1 Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 I was in our TRU just the other day, and they had only a few IPODS in stock. I will probably check back Wednesday to see if they have restocked. Does the TRU offer say $50 gift card with any IPOD? My son thinks he wants an IPOD touch which is pictured in the ad. But, the wording says any IPOD.

swelsh524 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I too was in line for the Zune last year and was one of the first 10 people in the strore and we were told right before they opened there doors, they sold out the night before to their employees. This happened several years ago with a game boy at TRU They do not stock their electronics well at all. I personally am heading to WM for the deal, it is just as good! You are better off doing the same.
