What is your plan of attack?

The tickets will be passed out Fri @ 3am. THey will be for the doorbuster specials that they have limited quantities of. If you do not have a ticket you will not get the special item (s). Laptops, desktops, cameras, etc.

 

If there is anything you want electronically, you need to be in line Turkey day early afternoon.

 

Good luck !

Tickets are valid for a limited time. So it won't sit there for 2-4 hours.

My plan: stay up with minimal sleep from early morning on Thursday until early afternoon on Friday, constantly updating the site with the items that are available online for those of you who are smart enough to get your items online and avoid the madness :P

 

Then sleep. For a long time.

 

And then wake up and see how many of you free-loaders have ditched us after BF is over, never to be seen again until BF 2008, lol.

 

On that note, seriously everyone, stick around on the site and forums after BF. We will save you more $ during the rest of the year than you could possibly ever save on BF. If you don't believe me, ask some of the regulars on here. I don't ask for much, but give us a chance the rest of the year as well. You don't have to visit as often as you do these days, but don't just forget about us :P

Very good plan....if u are a USA citizen.

 

Don´t forget there are a lots of canadians and a few mexicans and buying online is not an option.

 

I never forget this site, everytime that i travel to USA this excellent page is my first step before crossing the board.

Not finalized until I see the rest of the Staples ad & the gamestop ad, but here's how it'll probably go:

 

staples

circuit city

mall

long leisurely lunch with lots of coffee!! :)

bb&b

walmart if there's anything left on my list that I absolutely can't find anywhere else!

home after a nice 12-14 hour shopping day YAYAYAYAYA

Tickets somewhat like the BF ads are good until noon. However, even though you have a ticket if you wait too long to pick up BF morn you may not get it.

 

2 years ago I had a ticket for a Toshiab laptop. Even though I was in the BB store trying to retrieve my and was told that there were no left. This was even before 11 am. Nothing I could do but leave.

 

Thats alright though, I got 3 last year.

Be sure to ask any of the BB employees that come out and pass out tickets how things work in their store. Where to go when you get in the store for the computers and anything else that you are looking for. Ask where certain items are located in the store.

If they don't know they will find out for you.

No plan this year :( Im not going to be able to get out since I have to work early that morning for 12 hours so I need to sleep, not stand in line all night. The only thing I *really* need is a portable dvd player so I'm hoping a good deal shows up online so I can at least get what I need for this year.

Not too thrilled this year with any ads, maybe because my kids want different things that are not in them. My plan is to let my 20 and 16 year old cousins pick, they have been going with me for years and have fought the crowds for toys and blenders. I will fight the crowds this year for what they want!

flyjar... i'm kind of doing the same thing. My folks are going to babysit DD from about 11pm Thursday until 10am Friday. Then I'm going to pick her up and we're heading back out for about 2 hours of shopping. I need to find a stride rite for her so we can get shoes, so that's the last part of the day. Then we're going back home and setting up the Christmas tree (if I can find one at a really good price).
