I went online and when I typed in my zip code, all of the stores showed as not having any specials for BF. Is this possible????
The page that says no specials has a tabbed area and you need to click on "sneak peek" and you will see the BF ad.

Thanks. Well, looks like all of North Texas is not getting the laptop. :-(

Last year I was the first in line outside Staples in Iowa City, IA. But turns out the staff bought all the notebooks before the store opens.
That happened to a co-worker last year in Carlisle, PA. He was around #5 in line and there were no laptops left.

That sucks, but I could see it happening as there is no minimum printed by the ads. A couple of my friends worked there and told me that they could pretty much set aside whatever they wanted from the BF sale, including the doorbusters. At least at BB and CC the minimum is printed, so although the employees can still get in on the deals, people in line will have an idea whether they will be able to get their item or not.
It's not like it matters for me, given that my Staples doesn't even have the laptop in their ad.

I think we should all write letters of complaint to Staples. I also would have picked up lots of other stuff along w/ my laptop such as a cordless mouse, blank DVDs, and probably a laptop bag. They need to realize how much they are losing.
FYI, I called my local Staples and complained as well. Not that they are part of the process but hopefully it will be relayed above.
Exactly, I would have been too tired after spending the night waiting outside to really go anywhere else and would have done my entire BF shopping (including non loss leader stuff that I needed) there. I already do a lot of shopping at Staples as it is (it's <5 min away) but I guess I'll only go there only for FAR stuff and such.

I am telling you the stores arent to happy either about this. I work at one of the lucky stores that do have them, but have talked to several stores about it and they arent happy. There are two different ads depending on zip code. I would recommend that everyone call staples coporate or send in a complaint through the website. because there are many stores that have 30 or more. If they would have just spread it out to even 10-15 a store or so.
