Jasonlh1 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Now that almost all the major ads have come out, have you altered your BF plans in any way? Going super early? A different store or location? Skipping a store? Make sure that sometime on Thanksgiving, you go over your ads with a fine tooth comb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joann Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I've revised my list and encouraged a buddy to help. All the confusion about Walmart has me edgy, so I'll probably get there at 2:30 instead of 3:30 and I'm not even getting the laptop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest general41391 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I planned 3:30 am, then 1:00 am, and now 11:45 p.m. So, in other words, yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest general41391 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 ^oh my gosh! LOL why so early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonlh1 Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 I was going at midnight to best buy. But I think I may have to go around 10PM. Is 10:00PM early enough? My BB is very organized with tickets. I don't think I will have too much trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phatferd Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 People are over-exagerating. I agree with getting there early to get your stuff, however, from everyone I know who has ever gone BF shopping says if you get there at 1am you will most likely be the first in line and if you aren't you'll be one of the first 10. The masses come around 3-4am. Just what people told me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
