Gon2beastar Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 Hi! Just wondering if anyone has heard of any Black Friday Ads/Deals Yet? Ok thanks! Crystal
Brad Posted October 27, 2004 Posted October 27, 2004 Nothing yet, Crystal. As soon as they are leaked out, we'll have them in the database on the main site.
genoandkiddo Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I think the ads will come out after the election. What do you think, Brad and Rossman?
Brad Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I'd imagine that the ads have been printed already for most retailers. It's just a matter of someone getting a hold of them and letting us all know about them...
genoandkiddo Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 What do you thinking is holding them up? Do you think it is the problems like last year? I mean, weren't there some out already, or am I just getting old?
2dles Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I am getting impatient!!! I am so much of a planner that I sit and mull over the ads for hours once I get them. I thought we had some ads at this time last year too, but I could be getting old and not be remembering correctly. I can't wait to get the ads and figure out our game plan for who is going where and getting what!!!
Brad Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 Maybe they finally figured out that if they take precautions to make sure the ads aren't leaked out early, then they can actually keep them secret until a few days before they "officially" come out. No lawsuits, no problems - just keep them in a guarded warehouse until a few days before BF, lol.
genoandkiddo Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Well I don't know about the actual ads, but I can tell you from working at WM, they know a few months in advance what is going to be on sale and how much they are saling the item for. In fact we had a bf meeting, every Oct 1st.
chaoz Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 checked staples and they dont have bf add yet.if any one hears they have it but can not get it PM me i can get it.
genoandkiddo Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 chaoz, how soon can you get the staples ad? Have you heard when it will come out?
Gon2beastar Posted October 29, 2004 Author Posted October 29, 2004 I was looking on a website and the earliest post of ads i found was on the 5th of november.. :\
Scott Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Don't worry... I'm sure we will have plenty of time to form our strategies...
genoandkiddo Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Okay, so in other words I am getting old and my brain, has gone to slush. Anyone going to some halloween party's? I am for the girls at school then Tomorrow they are having a family one at the restaurant. Then off to tour the haunted houses and I am not suppose to forget the pumpkin patch. It's so hoky, but this starts the season for us.
Keebelf Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 That sounds like fun Geno! We are going to one of the malls here tomorrow evening and doing our trick or treating then. They close the mall and the store employees hand out candy and dress up and it is really fun and well lit and no cars and perfect if you have a rebellious 2yo that doesn't like his stroller! :lol
genoandkiddo Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 LOL keebelf, I have a 3yo daughter who did the same thing. Infact she's the one who told me not to forget the pumpkin patch. The mall sounds fun and warm. The pumpkin patch is a hay ride where you hear the ghostly tales of the town(Alot like the movie "Hollow" on ABC family The only difference is no one dresses up for the parts). Then at the end, they weigh the biggest pumpkin and then the kids get to carve or paint a pumkin. They always give out big candy bars. It is really fun. My 11yo is going to go with her friend. This will be her 1st time going alone. I am so nervous.

Brad Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Those are very, very, very unconfirmed :). We won't be posting them on the main site until the entire ad is released...
Jaidensmom Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 for those of us waiting for ads LOL the BIG toy book is up at Toys R Us/Amazon.com you can look through it online. This is usually good for a few deals, I wait for this every year :)
Brad Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Big Toy Book: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/914014
genoandkiddo Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 If those items are correct, Anyone with a BB in their area let me know!!!!! I have gone to McDonalds a few times and have several BB dollars. I don't have a BB in my area. They expire sometime in Dec. PM me with your address and I will send them to you. You might just be able to get that DVD player for 18.99 or even cheaper. If those items are correct.
Keebelf Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Geno, I will take them! That TV sounds pretty nice....I am sure I will find SOMETHING! If you email me at [email protected].....
snips_02 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 this was posted on another forum. has any one else hear about this or is it a spoof and someone playing a cruel joke on me????// (unconfirmed) some BB items are up! (unconfirmed) Apex Progressive-scan DVD player: 19.99 Apex 27" Television: $89.99 Belkin 802.11 b/g Wireless DSL/Cable Router: $24.99 Belkin 802.11g PCI card: $14.99 Belkin 802.11g PCMCIA card: $19.99 Emachine Athlon XP 2800+ computer + 15" LCD: $349.99
Brad Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Those were already posted in this thread about 5 posts above yours :) Still very unconfirmed...
northwoods Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Did any of you see the new Walmart ad dated Oct 31-Nov 6? On the bottom right hand corner of the back page, it says their December circular will be online only, and to sign up for their email, and they will email you when it is online. Im just wondering if they are referring to the Black Friday ad too??? I guess just have to wait and see.
genoandkiddo Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 You won't have to wait to much longer. Normally they don't post their bf ad. But they do offer some stuff online for bf.
Brad Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 There is a rumor that CircuitCity will have an HP Pentium-M laptop for $599. This is the only CC item mentioned, so I am not going to add it to the main site until it is confirmed or we get the entire ad, but I thought I'd post here as well. Also, if anyone is an active member of any other forums, please spread the word about this site. There are lots of other BF sites popping up, but we all know who had the first site, and we are the only one with such an active and friendly message board dedicated to BF, so let's keep it that way :) You can save time by linking to BF04.com instead of the full address. Your help is greatly appreciated.
genoandkiddo Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Brad, Gottadeal is already every where. Even on alot of the forums. I have been spreading the word with Yahoo groups. This is the best site, you guys are not grouchy about what we talk about. Some forums have edited my post because "they only want it in the one thread. We love you!!!!! Right? Everyone?
Keebelf Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 We love you!!!!! Right? Everyone?WITHOUT A DOUBT!
