A big thank you to all who are involved in this website. You have saved me countless amounts of money, plus this is about the only civilized deal site thanks to the wonderful moderators and posters.

While I'm not a BF shopper, I know that Brad and the mods work very hard to make GD the best site they can - not just on BF but all year. I also want to add my appreciation for all of their efforts.

As always, Black Friday and every day......thanks. My husband and I work hard for our money and like everyone else it does not go as far as we always need, thanks for helping us get there :) Best of the season to you all.

Another update:

 

Now that the online versions of the store's Black Friday sales are over with, we have "archived" the Black Friday site and are now redirecting people who go to the BF site to our main year-round GottaDeal.com online deals site. If you still want to view the old Black Friday site to check out the ads, you can access it here:

 

http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/home.php

 

We'll keep that site up as it is for several more months until we start to prepare for Black Friday 2009. The various interactive elements (shopping list, contact/ad submission forms) have been turned off.

 

The ad scans are still available here: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/AdScans

 

We'll leave those up only for a few more weeks, so if you want to "collect" them and save them to your computer, do so in the next week or two. We may add a "gallery" of past year's ads to next years BF sites for the major stores.

 

We've also moved the Black Friday-only threads from the Online Black Friday Sales sub-forum to their individual store forums. We renamed that forum to Online Cyber Monday Sales and the threads left are for sales still valid on Monday. We'll be adding more Cyber Monday sale info as we receive it.

 

Next week, we'll also close that particular sub-forum and all further online deals will be posted in the main Online Hot Deals forum at the top of the forum listing.

 

As I mentioned in the first post of this thread, we'll keep the rest of the BF forums open for another month or so before archiving them all as we've done the last 4 years. We'll then have 5 full years of archived BF discussion available to browse.

Thank you to Brad and all the mods. Your coverage of Black Friday '08 was fantastic as is the normal day-to-day operations here at Gotta Deal. :)

Couldn't have done it without this site...many thanks, Susan.

[MusicMama]

Thanks Brad and Mods. I got most of what I needed/wanted and was even able to price match at our Walmart! (if I hadn't read the post, I wouldn't have fought with the store manager)

 

Love the site all year long - especially since I'm still searching for a laptop....

[iggystar71]

I've been lurking since last year, but I wanted you to know I really appreciate all of your hard work, Brad!

[CrayZMama80]

You guys are awesome!

I'D give thanks but there's no button. Kiddin....

[Brad]

With 95% of Cyber Monday sales now over, we've closed that forum and moved those threads to the "Expired Deals" sub-forum of the Online Hot Deals forum.

 

Now, for all of the latest hot deals, check out the main Online Hot Deals forum here:

 

http://forums.gottadeal.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2

 

It's by far the most popular board on here and along with the main GottaDeal.com site is where you'll find the best deals all year long.

 

As mentioned before, the BF and Holiday boards will stay open until around Christmas before being archived.

[cw2857]

I too want to give a big thanks to all that work hard to keep this board running. I also check it all year long and wait in anticipation for those first BF ads. I appreciate all that you do and look forward to another year of deals in 2009.

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

[Ladyberg]

Want to thank you too!!! I enjoy reading everyone's posts just as much as checking out the ads. Awesome site!!!!!! Thank you!!!!

[dmmiller]

Awww, feels like the party is over..

Thanks everyone for all your hard work.

 

Happy Holidays everyone! :)
