ytmomof4 Posted Saturday at 12:03 PM Share Posted Saturday at 12:03 PM I’m sure it’s not later than usual but, where are they? I’m getting anxious and really want to know what I’m shopping for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted Saturday at 01:43 PM Share Posted Saturday at 01:43 PM It's not later than usual, as you said. We actually have a few more ads now than we did at this point last year. Really the only ad we had at this point (13 days before BF) last year that we don't this year is Staples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cllehto Posted Saturday at 02:10 PM Share Posted Saturday at 02:10 PM It just seems like the ads are later because they are having so many pre Black Friday sales it seems like the Black Friday sales ads should be out so you can compare prices and decide if you should buy the items this time or wait . 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted Saturday at 02:18 PM Share Posted Saturday at 02:18 PM Black Friday being on the 29th vs the 24th last year also makes things seem like they are behind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytmomof4 Posted Sunday at 11:55 AM Author Share Posted Sunday at 11:55 AM It just seems to be taking forever but, this week we should start seeing them I would think since a lot of places start their online sales Monday or well at least Walmart starts Monday I believe Not tomorrow Monday but next Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted Sunday at 02:14 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:14 PM Target should have their ad out Thursday night. Walmart should post their BF week deals on Thursday morning (with a smaller preview tomorrow possibly). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cllehto Posted Monday at 12:25 PM Share Posted Monday at 12:25 PM I still would prefer paper ads. Easier to lay them out and compare deals. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bribri25 Posted Monday at 11:40 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:40 PM I haven't bothered buying a paper because it was so minimal a couple years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berry1014 Posted Tuesday at 03:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:24 PM Definitely miss the paper ads and miss seeing a photo pic or pdf of the physical ad leaked on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bribri25 Posted Tuesday at 04:43 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:43 PM I miss having a finite list of items that we could type up each year and utilize a search feature across the ads to compare items. Now, it spans 7 weeks and 10,000 items that is just unreasonable to manage/follow the items and the sale intervals. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesusluvu Posted Tuesday at 06:39 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 06:39 PM Yes the old boards where we could filter searches and stuff. I would make a binder with the stores and items I needed to get. Now its a crap shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not the old boards, it’s the massive amount of sales they are having every week for many weeks and not really releasing ads.

I think when the kids were old enough to go they were as excited about Black Friday as I was. We would look through all the ads that came in the Thanksgiving Day paper after lunch and plan out strategy for Black Friday. We took the ads with similar door busters and ones for stores we knew we would go to with us to look for different stores if we didn't get the door buster of choice. We scored a laptop one year by going to a store with fewer popular deals that opened an hour later than our choice. Fun times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
