AaronOnline Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 Figured I would drop this out there to see why everyone is going to Best Buy this year. This is for all those who plan on being there at 5am for the doorbuster specials. I am going hoping for a new TV, miniDV digital camcorder, new computer, more DDR2 RAM, and a graphics card.
Manduh203 Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 A laptop, either the hp or the toshiba... and a desktop and that camcorder maybe some dvds
ms_mckenna Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 A lot of movies DH works in the oilfield so cheap movies are a great present for him. Either the 20 or the 24 Insignia tv to replace my sons tv. Noone thinks this is going ot be a ticketed item do they? Virgin moblie oster for DS. A few of the cheap CD's and POTC for PS2. Maybe the Midland 2 way radio and the Spanish Deluxe 2.0 not for sure yet.
1eviltwin Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 going for the hp or toshiba notebook or desktop if someone is lucky enough to get there before me
indallas Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 I'm going for the $189.00 Desktop, the XBOX 360 games and maybe some DVD's.
bgtink Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 I'm going for the desktop, or laptop, TV, and DVD's.
AaronOnline Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 Ms McKenna (?) , go to Best Buys website ( http://www.bestbuy.com ) and click on the "7 Hour Sale" page to see the ticketed items. I believe they are all there now.
chaarlieee Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 Just the 19" widescreen samsung monitor. How hard do you think it'll be to get just that monitor? Everybody seems like they're getting a TV, computer, laptop, or other expensive electronics.
soupsplatterer Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 Just the 19" widescreen samsung monitor. How hard do you think it'll be to get just that monitor? Everybody seems like they're getting a TV, computer, laptop, or other expensive electronics.I think that it may be a little hard... The 22" monitor is on my shopping list and there are a couple of threads about it. I think that monitors are going to be popular items this year. At those prices, I'm sure that you can understand why!
jacob_17 Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 My main reason is the 32" Westinghouse TV, but if i dont get that i will settle for the 27" Westinghouse. I will also look at some dvds.
ms_mckenna Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Ms McKenna (?) , go to Best Buys website ( http://www.bestbuy.com ) and click on the "7 Hour Sale" page to see the ticketed items. I believe they are all there now.Thanks so much for the link Aaron. :)

It cant be plugged into a computer can it? I didnt see the VGA port on it
Ajshope Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Just wondering what you guys will be using it for. It cant be plugged into a computer can it? I didnt see the VGA port on itI actually work in the Best Buy computer department and yes, the 22" Westinghouse has VGA.
flipnotik Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 its ALL about the 32' westinghouse this year..HOLLA..and maybe the 70 dollar 250gb hard drive that looks good
yogiyb Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Line location, line location line location......Ultimate goal is to get the $250 Toshiba, $50 XM Radio, $479 Westinghouse, and $1000 Panasonic Plasma. That's the "everybody got food poisoning and I'm #3 in line" plan. :) The website only guarantees 3(come on ) of the Samsung radios so my expectations with that are pretty low. Getting all my DVDs price-matched here also (double reward points!!).
bmoullas Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 XM Pioneer Inno package (great deal), $189 Desktop for my sister, and a couple of Duo Memory sticks for the PSP
RossMAN Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 If I go it will be a laptop and HDTV but I don't feel like getting in line at 6PM.
mcknight_collee Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 32" Westy, $249 laptop and\or $189 desktop, PSP starter kit, DSLite starter kit, McFee anti-virus, I'm not sure yet about the Sandisk mp3 player.
redlotus Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 $250 Notebook or $190 desktop--buying this for work to give away at the company christmas party$70 Portable DVD--for a co-worker$130 Camcorder--for a co-worker For myself:32" LCD HDTV--The wife actually had to talk me into this one 22" MonitorSeveral games and DVDs This is turning out to be the year that I have the shortest shopping list.
BayAreaKing Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I actually work in the Best Buy computer department and yes, the 22" Westinghouse has VGA.oh, really? cool, didnt know that cuz on the website, it didnt mention vga 1 bit

I'll let everyone know all about it friday hehe :) I hope I get the notebook, I hope hope hope and if something happens... say ppl who cut in line... and alittle of lol but hope it all goes well :)
AaronOnline Posted November 22, 2006 Author Posted November 22, 2006 Hey Lotus... for work eh ? I think they would rather have the laptop since, if you got the desktop and I didn't, you would be impaled with a crutch and would have to take time off from work and that would help noone. Hahahaha jk bro
peenkparrot Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 I'm going for a laptop. I need one for college and since the start of spring semester is right around the corner, I figure now would be a smart time to get one. Save a little money.
