OFFICE MAX Black Friday Ad Posted!

I found a few things of interest in the ad. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for.

 

Though, I'll have to wait until the Best Buy & Staples ads come out (both stores are within a stone's throw of Office Max where I live) before I say that I'm definitely going to Office Max on BF.

OfficeMax typically has these short, lackluster ads, so this year is really no different.

 

One item that caught my eye, at least as being deeply discounted, was this HP 4-in-1 wireless printer:

$149 in the ad, while the cheapest price on PriceGrabber for it is $300:

Personally, Office Max underwhelms again.....and is worse this year than last.

 

That HP wireless printer is attractive, though, and I was also looking at the Samsung color laser printer.

 

But, BB is calling my name again this year, as it has every year before......c'est la vie.

Did you happen to see the Tom Tom One GPS unit in the Pep Boys ad? Decent price on it and it's one of the more highly rated GPS units out there.....esp. for the money.

That 12MP Olympus for $199 looks really good - I have last year's 7MP Olympus special from them and am very happy with it. The only problem (I bought online) was the case and camera shipped seperately and one took forever to come (I forgot which).

can you order on line the boorbusters?

This is the year to buy if you want GPS or a digital photo frame!

 

Officemax ad was pretty weak, unless you were desperate for a printer, or looking for the usual assortment of gps and photo frames. I was hoping for some decent lcd monitor deals, but all they had listed was that 24", which is not what I'm looking for. Well, we shall see what Staples and Best Buy have up their sleeves.

We received a C&D from OfficeMax's legal reps a short while ago who are demanding that the ad be taken down by tomorrow. Therefore I suggest you save the ad to your computer very soon.

 

While the ad will be removed from the BF site, we will save the items that are currently on your shopping list, and once we can re-post the ad, the items will be restored to your shopping lists.

 

This seems to be a disturbing trend this year... :shock:

I really do appreciate how they let you keep it up for a few more hours, gotta give them credit there....

Let's not get carried away with giving them credit - the deadline was probably more because they sent the e-mail after business hours and couldn't know that it would be read before tomorrow anyway.

Brad, you make several references to reposting the ad at some point after you take them down. Is that saying these retailers don't mind you posting the ad once they've officially released it? If that's case, I'd consider not re-posting it and advertising for them. But then again, you'd just be hurting the loyal GD'ers.
