EmConMom Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 My best friend and I were just discussing BF and how much we can't wait. I started shopping b/c Target had alot of the toys 30-60% off when I was there last week and I got my DS a train table for just 55 and some change. I cannot wait for BF this year, we are adding another stop to our day this year

Just Me Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I heard from another site that Mcdonalds is taking the lead on the BBB game this year, but of course no one knows for sure. I called Mcdonalds Corp. and asked if they had an idea when the game would start(hoping they'd give me details) and the young lady put me on hold and came back and said her supervisor said it's a little too early, but there will be a game and the date is up in the air for now.Oh I can't wait to know for tsure they will have the BBB. I will start my envelopes as soon as I hear. I figure I do all the my address parts then I only have to fill in thiers as soon as it is released. Ok is it cruel child labor to have your 7 year old help address envelopes?

We were there yesterday, only to be disappointed, since nothing new was marked down, and still not 75% off!

I was not on here last year so I have no idea what it is, but I would love to be prepared! Sounds interesting! Thanks.
arress Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I am curious about the McDonald's, Best Buy thingy too!!

christib327 Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Thanks Marcster. I was a member at that time last year, but never even looked at that thread.

ChristmasShopping Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 I made my list of things I will be looking for when the Black Friday ads come out & boy is it a long list!! (and yes I know it is early but I have lots of people to buy for!) I can't wait for the forum to open up!! It was fun to read all the threads last year!

zarathstra Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 Does anyone know when GottaDeal will reopen their Black Friday website? I can't remember if it opens in August or September.
delphernina Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 I'm really starting to get the black friday ::twitch:: Ugh.... every year this happens to me, I start obsessing over bf and have a hard time concentrating on anything else.
Trishy Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 I wish I could go to the BF sales but I'll be away and I don't think they will have them in Mexico. I just wished I'd have thought of this before we booked the cruise.
ChristmasShopping Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 Does anyone know when GottaDeal will reopen their Black Friday website? I can't remember if it opens in August or September.If I remember correctly, it opened the first week of September (but I could be wrong).

Ravenseye Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 The forums opened on September 7th, or right around there, last year. Thats when Brad posted the Welcome to the Holiday/BF Forums for 2006. -Mike (Who's just as jazzed up about it as all of you! Bring it on!)
sassercc Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 I just found out that I can't get off work for BF. Hopefully, I can get the majority done by 8:00 am since I have to be at work at 8:30. This will be the 1st time in years that I won't be participating all day in BF (my mom, my sisters, and myself usually shop til we drop). I guess I can always check for some things online too. Maybe I need a new job LOL!
Gurnee Al Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 McDonald's Best Buy Bucks = 10 pound weight gain for me. Resist, resist, resist....
babygirl913 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Just thinkign about this the other day...Black friday will be here b4 we know it...it's already August:yup:
becalyn24 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Black Friday last year took me a whole hour! took post it notes and wrote down prices from other retailers and when I found the item at walmart I posted it on there and went on my merry way. While everyone else is waiting for the 5 dollar dvd's I was price matching disney dvd's for 3.99! It works great and Walmart did not question one of my matches. At WM by 5 and home by 6:30!
dmmiller Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 I think I may do the price match thing this year too. I HATE standing in lines for 2-3 hours at CC. "unless" someone has a great computer deal I cant live w/o. Either way, I'm gonna have to find someone close to me to pair up with, and have them shop at one place while I do another. But everyone here thinks I"m nuts about this type of thing. :) Then when I get home, they're amazed and slightly jealous of all the deals I get.
braggsalot Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 For the price matches did you take your ads in with you to show the cashier. When I go grocery shopping I take my other grocery stores ads with me and show the prices to the cashier. I think I might do what you are suggesting. The only way I think it might not work is if Walmart does not carry that certain brand of the MP3 player and whatnot.
sigrist_2000 Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 i so price match everything i can possibly can!!!...i usually make a list and price of everything and where..and i bring in the ads just in case...but normally that day no one cares so they will put in whatever u say...(got some good bargains that way..plus last year i must have been luckier..the cashier wasnt a normal cashier and every price match item...which was every item...lol...he was giving me a 3 dollar credit (walmart policy if the item doesnt ring up the correct price not for pricematching)...so 3.99 movies i was getting for 99 cents...i was in heaven...!!! oh i price match at walmart...not standing in line at bb (as much as i should for the reward zone...but i wouldnt get the items either way if i did...so walmart gets my $)...
sbwolfer Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 LOL I'm so glad I'm not the only one who can't wait!

The only way I think it might not work is if Walmart does not carry that certain brand of the MP3 player and whatnot.At my Wal-Mart I have to bring the ads in. Every year until last I've pricematched. Last year, my local walmart changed their policy and refused to price match because we live too far away from the other retailers. I had to drive to the other town to go to a walmart to price match. It sucked, because I found out when I got back home that my walmart did indeed pricematch after all. Kind of irked me, because I was told very firmly that if I tried to pricematch at my local walmart it would be refused.
tjarena Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 What do you think the chances are of getting a good deal on a WII on Black Friday?
Just Me Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 What do you think the chances are of getting a good deal on a WII on Black Friday?Slim to none because they are still so hard to find and selling for over retail on auction sites. XBOX 360 deal is more liekly the Wii is just selling to well on its own. Just having them brings people in. Maybe a deal on some of the games might be possible though
aerosmithgirl Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 I can't even find a Wii right now and have been looking for a few weeks. This will be my daughter's gift for Christmas this year. I took all my ads to Wal-Mart to price match CD's, DVD's and computer games. Paying at 5:30, then to Target. Which didn't open until 6, so waited until they opened, got my items there and straight next door to Best Buy to get the items I needed there. Then, made it over to the mall, but I was finished by noon.
