stationchief Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Well, it looks like it's that time of year again Time for the (DRUM ROLL)... 2013 GottaDeal.com Black Friday Product Charts! I'm now making the official call for volunteers for this year's charts. Basically, it's pretty simple: you will be responsible for logging in and entering as much info for a particular product as the ads come in. These charts have been extremely popular and helpful every year, and I expect them to be even more so this year so I'll need lots of help putting them together. If you'd like to volunteer this year please send me a PM with which chart you would like to work on. This year's product charts are still located at blackfridaycharts.com. Here's a bit on the entire chronological history of the product charts, how they came to be each year, all mixed in with a lil' bit of me: http://blackfridaych...om/MyStory.html Let the Black Friday madness begin! 3
stationchief Posted October 20, 2013 Author Posted October 20, 2013 We're open for business and on our way with a couple of ads. I'm still in need of a few more volunteers to help put these charts together. The more, the merrier. If anyone's interested, please send a PM with what chart(s) you'd like to work on. Also, the other day I found my backups of all my old charts dating all the way back to the very first one in 2005! Has it been that long? I think I might post a flashback from the past Black Friday charts to relive some of the outdated desktops and laptops.
stationchief Posted October 24, 2013 Author Posted October 24, 2013 http://blackfridaych...om/MyStory.html Just a lil' something to pass the time while my volunteers and I work on the recent ads. A bit of the chronological history of the product charts mixed in with a little bit of me If you have the time, go and have a read.
Bobbi0125 Posted October 28, 2013 Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) Wow! I've been on this site for years and I didn't even realize these charts were here! How AWESOME! Going to have a much better plan of attack this year! Thanks much! Edited October 28, 2013 by Bobbi0125

len_mullen Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Those are the best of all the BF charts/tools. May I suggest that you add a search all categories? I was trying to find all the deals on Rokus this morning and came up empty.

kranky Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 A tip o' the kranky hat to all those who worked on getting the charts together! Very nice job.
Brad Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 We could have used some of those volunteers working on the actual ads this year... 1
mcwalker Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 We could have used some of those volunteers working on the actual ads this year... That's why I switched from charts to ads this year.
Kanyon71 Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Well next year if the ad linking is going to be as limited as it was this year then I will help out with the actual ad's I know last year I was a linking fool (ok just a fool in general lol)
stationchief Posted November 25, 2013 Author Posted November 25, 2013 We could have used some of those volunteers working on the actual ads this year... Jealous, are we?
