sleepyshopper Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 No, Not disappointed.....I usually never really shop Kmart anyways, I am waiting for the good ads.....Wal Mart, Target, BB, TRU, KB Toys, Etc...
lindabacker Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I am trying to be optomistic at this point.

Melissa Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 We no longer have a Kmart, and I don't shop at Ace anyway. I'm waiting to see what Target and Toys R Us will have. Those are my main stores.
Vickis3js Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I for one wasn't expecting to be blown away with either Kmart or Ace's ads. I was disappointed though because for the last 2-3 years Kmart has had somethings on their Thanksgivings Day ad that I go for and this year they are not there. I always get the kids new pj's for Hannukah and I would get my lil brother GBA games, this year I needed them for my own kids and they don't have deals on either. My DD has been begging for Doodle Doug so I will be going to get that, not a huge deal on it but enough to get me out of bed. Now to wait for the other ads where I am sure there will be better deals, atleast I hope!
schwoozer Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 The two released ads do not concern me as much as the overall lack of great deals I've noticed this year from the tech stores (CC, BB, CUSA). I remember last year in the weeks leading up to BF, there were alot of deals that made me think, "That's the lowest price I've ever seen for one of those." For the B&M stores, that hasn't happened once yet. I do realize that what I'm shopping for this year is totally different than years past (alot more focused), but at this point, about the only thing I'm pretty confident will have "best prices ever" will be flat panel HDTVs. Aside from that, I'm only cautiously optimistic.
Cecilliadb Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I don't think I'm disapointed yet, it's still early and thats only two stores. Looking forward to wal-marts adds.
elena_398 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Im not disappointed in BF overall so far, but with Kmart I am. Im still wondering why they didn't advertise GameBoy Advance games on Thanksgiving! I've been going there for the past several years and always buy the childrens games they have available.
tmkuroda Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Other than the games that some people look forward to, did anyone expect to be blown away by Ace Hardware and K-Mart deals? That's not where the huge action is at, IMO No but normally there is at least ONE or TWO things that get your interest... But NOTHING did. Tina
kalle1212 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I never like the Kmart black friday ad. And I don't don ACE hardware so I don't even look at it. But I usually do like kmart thanksgiving sale but Im not crazy for it so far. Maybe when I actually see the flyer I will change my mind.
Stella72 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I'm not dissapointed because I've only seen 2 ads and I won't be shopping in those stores anyway. We don't have a Kmart here anymore and I'm not going to waste my time in a hardware (Ace) store on the other side of town on BF. I am anxiously awaiting the walmart ad so I can at least start shopping for some of the stuff on my list that's not going to be on sale BF.I'll be PMing that Foreman grill @ Wal-Mart on BF! Wal-Mart is the biggest store in my town and around the area for 40 miles. So I love that I can PM there :) Our WM rule is 45 miles for PMing
ssf Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I am trying to be optomistic at this point.Same here...
tdanette Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Not really, I saw a few things to keep in mind just in case the other stores don't have great deals. But I'm really waiting on the "big" store ads!
beckster321 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Last year Kmart didn't really have anything that appealed to me either. I did go there last and bought a sewing machine, but I was really looking for the expensive electronic deals and so I concentrated on CompUSA (which was great last year), Best Buy and Circuit City. I hope CompUSA has a good ad this year.
Gporter34 Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 We don't have a KMart or an Ace so I am not disappointed yet. I think I am a little spoiled because WalMart was the first ad leaked last year and I am wanting it BAAADDDD!!!!LOL
jls263 Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Not disappointed because Kmart is usually my last stop anyway. I'm just excited its that time of year again.
love2beurwifey Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I am not really disappointed because I did not expect but so much from Kmart I do not like that store for some reason
ChrisKsAngel Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Kmart and I have been on the outs for the last two years... Therefore, I find myseld both happy that we have the first few ads coming out and disappointed that it is not somthing better than Kmart.
jellybean051901 Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I think that because I am a die hard WM shopper I won't be happy until that ad comes out....hopefully I won't be disappointed
CBXweb Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I doubt this year is going to be a flop. I know CC, BB, and WM are going to have some good ones this year.
motoXmom Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Aww come on where's the BF Spirit?! j/k Only 2 ads have been leaked there are many more to look forward to! I never expect much from Kmart anyway so I'm dissappointed yet! I am a bit surprised with their TD sale though I will say that.
Jamy36823 Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I really didnt see anything that is worth running out in the snow at 5 am! Hopefully WM will have something good..otherwise, I aint goin!
KuponKlipper Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 WalMart was the first ad leaked last yearI will be shocked if it gets leaked before the week of Thanksgiving this year.From what I understand, there were some major "security breaches" last year, and they are trying to combat those issues this year with MANY security policies being put into place -- including truck drivers delivering them. I am sure someone will get it ... but I bet it's going to be more difficult this year.
mtjoycol Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I have always gone to Kmart on Thanksgiving day for the great video game deals. This year they don't have anything! So I'll be skipping Kmart this year. I didn't see anything in their add that would make me want to get out of bed and go over there. Coleen
Novac Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I didn't see anything in their add that would make me want to get out of bed and go over there.ColeenThis made me think -- how do we even get out of bed the other 364.25 days of the year outside of BF???
Marcster Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Hey "disappointed" people:Read this thread -- *** List of Dates BF Ads Came Out Last Year *** Hang in there... the ads didn't really start flyin' till 11/6-11/18!
kulkel Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 IMO, I am usually always disappointed in K-mart. Their ad never truly impresses me.
Guest kathybmb Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I'm not disappointed in a way its one store i won't have to fit into my rounds.. i didnt really see anything i was too thrilled over in their ad either.. its their loss i guess..
peekaboo Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 I was really dissapointed by the K-mart ad as well. I usually go the Kmart on Thanksgiving for the GB games then on BF after all the good stores. At this rate I may not even be hitting kmart at all. Does anyone know when they start sending you the coupons for the 12 days of christmas from Toysrus?
