bah... Deck the halls and all that :) I know it's a bit early...(three weeks early compared to last year...) but, it proves that the info is out there. If it's out there, it deserves to be here! -Mike

3 weeks? Last year the Ace ad (which was first) wasn't out until mid-September. This is 5-6 weeks earlier!

maybe we'll get lucky and ace will send their lawyers to have us take the ad down and we can all pretend that none of this existed :P

If you check the main discussion forum you'll see that some of us were thinking about BF since the beginning of the year. ;) Sheesh! Some of us have already started christmas shopping.

Too early? It's NEVER too early! Bring it on! Posted Image

I am not shocked. I think with the state of the economy it would be good to create early hype.

A little surprised but for me it's more stressful. We are moving during all the craziness!

It may be a little too early for me. I shop all year, but I want it at least to be under 100* outside before I start seeing the ads!

i dont think its too early. it helps me out by either adding or deleting the store from the places i have to go and that helps by them posting their add. the earlier the better!

First thing I noticed when I logged in tonight was the blackfriday add. Wow I really do think it way to early. Make a person think by the time the adds do come out we will be tired of them.
