I won't be disappointed unless I see Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target, and some of the other stores having nothing I want. I haven't ever seen anything at K-Mart that's made it worth my time to go over for in the years I've been going. I don't even know if I have and Ace store in town since I've never attempted to go to one.

I am hoping this year is far better than BF 2005. Normally I can get at least 60% of my shopping done...last year I was lucky to have finished 30% on BF. I think the items on sale just were not that great and the sale prices were nothing to write home about. If this year is like 2005, I may be hanging up my BF hat.

I can't believe the LACK of ads so far! Looking at the dates in which the ads came out last yr, we are behind! I mean, Walmart was out 2 weeks ago last year. I haven't seen anything I want in the ads that have been released! :tired: Come on Walmart ,BB, and Target!

Major disappointment. I have a feeling this year will be the big let down year. We all get pumped for this and sooner or later there was bound to be a year where we all just shook our heads and said, "I don't see anything of great value this year."

 

I hope they prove me wrong.

I'm with you guys about being disappointed about which ads are out. Seems awfully late to me. I don't care about the ones out now. Even Sears isn't a big deal. Like you all, I'm waiting for Target, BB, and CC. I don't even know where there is a Kmart around here.

I hope so too. So far the BF ads have been rather weak.

Yep, that's what I think also. Would like to see more ads by now, but still 3 weeks away.

I predict that Wal-Mart is going to wait until like Nov. 23 or almost the day before and come out with some CRAZY deals. They are probably waiting to see what everybody else has and then underprice them.

Well, that Office Max ad was a whole bunch of nothing in my opinion. I remember they used to have fantastic sales, not just on BF, but all year round (around, say, two years ago). Now, because they eliminated rebates, prices are much, MUCH worse for those of us who didn't mind the rebates. I haven't bought anything from them for as long as I can remember.

 

With Best Buy also going no rebates, I'm bracing for the worst from their ad too.

I wonder if a lot of these companies are waiting until they see what wal-mart's BF add looks like before deciding on their final price of these items.

Yeah, or wal-Mart is waiting on them. It's like a big game of chicken or something.

I have been shopping black friday for almost eight years and it seems that the ads are not as exciting as they use to be. Gotta deal is not only for black friday but excellent for everyday deals that seems more exciting. I have found a lot of deals and save quite a bit over the last year. But on the other hand the big ads, like best buy and walmart have not come out yet and they are the worst to go to. I don't think I am ready to start standing in line 5:00 pm the night before. I give people credit who do. Well see:yup:

I'm so torn - I don't know if I'm disappointed. I love the sneak peaks & I feel I'm becoming compulsive each time I check back - I think I've become addicted to this site -- but I think my mind is rejecting them --there's just something about diving into the Thanksgiving paper to see the colorful ads. I guess I'm a victim of marketing & advertising.
