wolfrhk Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 GREAT NEWS!! Our GM in our area sent a list of items that will be appearing in the Black Friday ad, with instructions to hold them in the lockup area to ensure proper stock for BF. No prices, no SKU's, just the product listings. HOWEVER, THESE ITEMS ARE CONFIRMED. I bolded some the items we are commenting on in the store so you get an idea of what the associates here are predicting. Here's the list:Sandisk 2GB Ultra II CF CardSandisk 2GB Mem Stick Pro DuoSandisk 4GB HC Memory (I am assuming SDHC)Sandisk 4GB Micro SDSandisk Cruzer 8GBExecutive 12 Sheet Crosscut Shredder Staples 50pk DVD+R SpindleHP Everyday Photo Semi-Gloss (Possible FAR item?)Norton Int Sec 2009 1-3PCHP Officejet 5610 AIO Inkjet ($69.99 currently, below $50 on BF?)Samsung ML-2510 Laser (Regularly goes on sale for $50 after rebate, so it could go lower here!)Samsung CLP-315 Color LaserMaxtor 2.5in 250GB Onetouch 4 Mini USB HDDTomtom One 125 GPS (Sears BF for $99, likely the same price here)Motorola H350 Bluetooth HeadsetOmnitech 7in Digital FrameOmnitech 8.5in Digital FrameVtech Dect 4 Handset Cordless SetKodak Easyshare CD93+ (Digital Camera, probably under $100)Verbatim 2.5in 320GB USB HDDEmachine 19inW E19T6W (LCD Monitor)HP Notebook (No other details, we'll find out what it is soon enough)Greeley Black Luxura ChairGreeley Pecan Luxura QS10Greeley Grey Microfiber There was a 2nd part to the list probably pertaining to office supplies, but it wasnt available. Anyway this is huge news for us in the stores as we close in on the finish line, I'll try to get more details soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Thanks for the info. This looks like every Staples ad for the last 3-4 years, lol. Just updated models. No TVs or desktops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfrhk Posted November 9, 2008 Author Share Posted November 9, 2008 No TV's in our region, very likely no TV's nationwide. No word on desktops yet. And yes, the items may look somewhat similar to BF's of the past, but prices have dropped quite a bit on items like flash memory and LCD's. I would put most of the flash memory around $5-15 out the door. Also the 19" LCD monitor could go less than $100 (we've had $150 monitors recently, and last BF 19" was $200) Also as a sidenote we are now setting up TONS of "gifts" and holiday-themed items, little knickknacks that would make good stocking stuffers for friends and family. I have even seen bizzare items like Goo Gone and Silly Putty up near the registers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigger97498 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Well that sucks I was hoping for a monitor a little bigger than 19 maybe a 22. Hopefully Target has one again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The End Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Thanks a bunch for posting this. The top item on my BF wishlist this year (at least as far as stuff that I'm buying for myself goes) is a new computer chair. So I’m glad to see that there's a couple there on that list.

I have an office chair recommendation- I got a Sealy Posturepedic one, and it is super nice- probably one of the better ones I have had (I work at home in my chair all day!)

batojefe Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 These items are just like last year... not sure if it is worth waiting in line, although i am sure they probably have an ace up their sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TazErase Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Looking for a 2TB external HD, I know they had the 1TB last year and the 500GB. Hoping to get rid of all my other smaller external drives for once, looks like a Christmas tree whenever I turn them on, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll certainly keep that in mind. I’m waiting for the ads to see if whatever they have to offer looks like a really good deal. If not, I might just take your advice and get a sealy chair.

Any rebates?? My boss is looking to help her daughter find another laptop for one of her twins. They got the $298 deal at Walmart but it was one per person and her hubby wasn't with her that day. Thanks for any info you could give me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TazErase Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Any idea when the rest of the ad will be posted? I usually pass by Staples after Best Buy to get a few items but if I don't get to see the list soon I may just go to a backup plan and go someplace else.

chimeralife Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Does Staples let you buy some of their stuff online? We don't have one near here but they do have a couple things I would like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
