gdorrego Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Hi, I live in Lima-Peru South America and I am arriving to Florida just on BF morning (5:30 a.m), I am very excited about BF,so I am planning wich stores to go first (making my itinerary with mapquest), the question is: Will I have the chance to get something good (laptops, digital cameras, etc) considering the time of my arrival? Any advice or suggestions?:)
alimfp Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 If you get to any store at 5:30am, it's probably too late for big items like cameras, laptops, etc. Those are usually limited (esp the laptops) and people get in line HOURS before opening. It's worth a shot though. But if the store opens at 6 and you get there half an hour before, you'll probably see hundreds upon hundreds already in line - depending on the location of the store and the store itself. :)
Guest all2tired Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 There a better than not chance you won't get any of those but if you know somebody in the states, maybe they can wait in line for you. Just a thought
Rebirth Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Are you arriving at 5:30 am? If so, you have to factor in delays, getting your luggage. At the earliest, you'll leave the airport at 6 am. Best bet is get someone you know to get in in line for you.
wildtama Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Too bad the shops in the airport don't participate in BF! Hopefully you have a person who can stand in line for you until you arrive. Have fun! Sometimes, it is just as much fun to grab the $10 deal as it is the big ticket things.
Jenniferharrison82 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Probably a little to late for the really good deals...
Marcster Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Does Peru use 110/120 V (like the USA)? Or do they use 220/240 V (like Europe, Asia, & Australia)? If you don't use the same current that we use, you might have to use your purchases with a bulky transformer like this one: http://www.medicaltravel.org/logo/european_transformer.jpg Also, do your plugs look like we use in the USA: http://www.jtevanselectric.com/image/533406.jpeg Or are they different, like this: http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/283139/2/Electrical_plug.jpg Or like this: http://www.pugetsoundwaiec.org/images/i-plug.jpg
