julz0420 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 For me its Walmarts annual "don't post the ad until x date" Just kidding. For me, its really right after the kids start back to school and I'm really getting ready after Labor day. Too bad the ads cant catch up with my thought process! So what finally makes you get in the BF mood? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bopeep Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 This year, I was really craving it in July! lol. But usually, I start getting really excited and ready for it when it gets close to the 100 day mark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 It's always Black Friday season for me, haha. But seriously in some ways it's the first week of November for me. That's when we typically start seeing the "real" (non-Harbor Freight/non-Half Price Books) type of ads leaking. That week is also when the online deals typically start to ramp up. Amazon usually starts their expanded Lightning Deals that week as well. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But usually, I start getting really excited and ready for it when it gets close to the 100 day mark.You can definitely blame Amazon for that Lead Zeppelin!

It does get exciting when the forums start to ramp up, especially closer to Nov. when the majority of people head back over here. I cant believe we are already into October!!
