StephanieD Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 It looks like Ace comes a month earlier every year...2005 In Nov, 2006 in Oct, 2007 in Sep, and 2008 August. I guess we can expect next year's ad in July! LOL
cassgurlie04 Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Yea that makes ace a teaser, you get one ad in the beginning of august and we wont see another til late september or early october UGH:(
Tessangel Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 When did Walmart come out last year or shell I say the "supposed" walmart ad? I know it was kinda floating then with the legal stuff it didn't come out offically til the week of. I was just curious! :)

darkwiggles Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 I guess we won't be seeing another ad for a month or so... :(:(:(:(:(
Lanhawk Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I think you'll start seeing some decent deals now, due to the economy, I think stores will try to lure the public into shopping earlier and try to move goods now.
austin944 Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 i HOPE this year will be awesome! I agree with Lanhawk thou, i also think we wil see some sweet deals this year!
schwoozer Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 Before we all get worked up into a frenzy over these dates, please also remember BF is almost a full week later this year. So I would anticipate the dates for the ads leaking will also be later, on average.

I'm just sayin'... http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Rude/pom.gif
bigjimslade Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 It has been in the news reports that most of the stores will have less inventory as it lowers there debt risk. So the law of supply and demand will come into play big time this BF.

TazErase Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 I notice someone has "Mayor Of Best Buy Tent City" on their post, I'm the local mayor of the Best Buy where I live. I'll be there by 12 noon Thursday this year.

Bursley2010 Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 At least we have the quote from TRU saying this BF will be big...I can still hold hope there will be some big deals. And I also hope we start seeing some more ads sooner rather than later! :)
Cheri0113 Posted November 2, 2008 Posted November 2, 2008 I'm ready to start seeing more ads anytime......bring them on!!!!!!
wnc_mom Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Me too its so wierd how its almost a week later this year...its throwing me off lol
zim05 Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 wnc_mom said: Me too its so wierd how its almost a week later this year...its throwing me off lolThis week later thing is also throwing me off as well, so basically we have to add about 5 days to a week more to the dates above so it fits with this year. But so far it hasn't been exactly (as in when certain ads dropped) so I'm hoping within this week to get another semi-good one. Hopefully next week some big ones, I'll even just take one...
jediliz Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 I hope the Target Ad is released soon. That's usually the only store I am able to get to, though 4 years ago I also made it to Shopko & Sears (but not usually at early bird hours).
premiumchip Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 With each new ad posted I get more excited and anxious for the next one. I'm waiting on Target also and Walmart, which propbably won't come until Nov. 26 - urrrggg.
skytrain Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 why is the staples ad so late. Past couple of years it came out around Nov 11th. I am hoping it is a really good ad. Hopefully it will be up tomorrow.
