Violentj6969 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I am thinking about trying to camp out to snag one of these and I have a few questions for some of you Black Friday vets. What time would I need to get there? Will it be a popular item? Would they give out a ticket for it or would I just have to make a mad dash when the doors open to get it? Thanks.
nk126 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Mad dash (no ticket). Very popular. Limited quantities. Get there and wait in line night before.
Adamtanderson Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 I think it will be the most popular non-ticket item this year. It will be the first place I go.
lovebears65 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I just went to best buy to look at it and its sweet. I will be making a mad dash to that .. I also looked at the 32 inch LCD it looks good too ..
marshalljay Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I'd grab the 32" if I were you - great price, good set. 22" is way too small, 'specially when you are watching normal, SD, tv.
muffin123 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 the 22 inch if for computer monitors and thats huge for a computer and its cheave :) i will be making a 40 yard dash to that monitor very very fast
Mystiko Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I heard that the quality is not that good on the westinghouse but the prices are good though.
mystikal1 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I looked @ the 22" and it is very good but I decided to get the 32" for my computer monitor:D
lovebears65 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 I heard that the quality is not that good on the westinghouse but the prices are good though. The one I saw the quality was awesome. Best picture of all the monitors displayed
lovebears65 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 10 per store and a non-ticket item???? From the ad it says 10 min per store so its possible there could be more depending on the area you live in
shrippyshram Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 If the number of people posting this question is a a sound metric, then it will be very popular indeed (even if its a hunk of junk).

iastrmchsr Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 The BB website shows the 22LCD is out of stock and not available online. Are they holding it back now?
sickrubik Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,2032425,00.asp I did a little digging around and the user reviews for htis thing have been very nice. Keep in mind none of these companies make the actual monitors. And the screen is made by the same company that makes the screens for Samsung, NEC, ad naseum.

cindyhartsell Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 How do you know when something is a ticket item or a mad-dash item?
daz Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Westinghouse makes GREAT monitors. The quality is excellent, and it will last just as long as any other monitor made. The only monitor better is the syncmaster. They have lower response times than their big name brand counterparts, and can ALWAYS be found cheaper at regular prices.
T0mmy Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 So why can't I buy the monitor today and pricematch Friday afternoon or Saturday? I think I'm going to do this with the 22" westinghouse and those Klipsch surround sound speakers.

I think I'm going to do this with the 22" westinghouse and those Klipsch surround sound speakers.That is what I was thinking about doing. They already told me I could do that with the Pro Duo Memory Sticks. That was an item they have out now that I need.
T0mmy Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Nice, I'm stopping by on my way home from work to investigate further. I actually want 2 22" LCDs, one for the bedroom TV, the other for my PC monitor. I can ge one now, and try to get another on BF since I'll be waiting in line anyways.
Adamtanderson Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 How do you know when something is a ticket item or a mad-dash item?It is not a door buster item. Tickets are usually handed out for the door buster items. That and past experience.
bigjimslade Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 How do you know when something is a ticket item or a mad-dash item?It will be a mad dash item. Do some recon on Wednesday and get there early on Thursday.
lovebears65 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 From what I understand they only have a few on the floor right now and keeping the stock for black fri
terh Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 The BB website shows the 22LCD is out of stock and not available online. Are they holding it back now?Yes. They just did that this morning or overnight from the 15th to16th
Mystiko Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 I heard they have 25 for each store and they'll put some other on saturday.
LadyIzShy Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 Yes. They just did that this morning or overnight from the 15th to16thdoes anyone knowif it willbe back on line BF? I really really really need it andtheresjust NO way I willmake it to BB. WM is theonlyplaceI can makei t to and behome in time
T0mmy Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 I HIGHLY doubt it'll be online on BF. I went to one local BB last night and they sais they wouldn't be doing ANY pricematching on anything in the ad. I got this from a manager. I don't like that answer, so I'm going to the other 2 local BB's to ask them. There's a lot of them around me, so I'll find one that says ok. If not, I believe I'm still going to do it, because htey cannot stop me from returning something and rebuying it if I have to.
