When will the first ad drop this year?

[Needs a deal]

I was thinking this morning that i wouldn't be surprised this year to see a really early Walmart or target ad this year well before Halloween. What are your thought on the first ad being posted of this year.

I think it's more likely we'll get our annual Walmart Letter before we get a Walmart ad.

Walmart will never let that happen more like their annual nasty letter by Halloween

I think we'll see our first one Oct 4th.

By the end of this month - Ace, Half Price Books or Harbor Freight

I think near the end of this week.  Probably Half Price Books.

I think it'll be mid oct cause thanksgiving is later this year. I'm going to guess Oct 11.

Thanksgiving is later this year, but Chanukkah starts early this year. The night before Thanksgiving.

Half price Books shouldn't even count as a contender. They willingly give theirs up to brad and other sites. Ace, Harbor Freight or one of the drug stores will probably be early.

I guess HF will have their ad out this week.

Not sure of the dates but I think we will see Half Price Books, then a toss up between Harbor Freight and ACE Hardware for me. Wal Mart should just send out the notice here weekly. Something like We think you're thinking about it so don't even do it. Sad because to me it helps build up the anticipation, the people out here searching the net trying to plan are the ones who are most likely going to be the ones out buying stuff why not reward them.

Only problem is, there are no Chanukkah sales.
