3 boys Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 I am ready for some wheelin' and dealin' (and there should be some good ones) This is worse than waiting for your birthday when you were a kid

Iliveforblckfri Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 HEY Brad, Thanks for your site. I can't believe that I am this excited this far out. My family tells me that I am always this way. The question I have is when do you put up the count down in the site heading? Thanks again, Darla
Brad Posted September 2, 2009 Author Posted September 2, 2009 Just an FYI, we'll probably be sending out the big "we're open" e-mail to the full mailing list early next week, so enjoy the forum now while you can before everyone starts finding their way back after Labor Day and it gets much busier Also putting the finishing touches on the "BF survival kits" we're going to give away this year.

Brad Posted September 2, 2009 Author Posted September 2, 2009 i am guessing the "my list" feature will open at this time too right?The shopping list won't open until there are ads to use it with. There is no point in opening it sooner.

rbeck24 Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 When the BF talk starts, productivity goes WAAAY down at work!! I'm constantly checking for ads and the forums for things I can't miss!! It can't come soon enough!! BRING ON THE ADS!!! lol
angelbabymommy Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Yahooo.....:)omg ; I love your avator!
wx4svr Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I can't believe it's time already! Seems impossible. Anywho... bring on the ACE ad. We all know it will be the first one. lol.
Jacquelyn11 Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 It's funny I got the notice about BF today. My DH, who recently took a job at a New JC Penney they opened in Hiram, GA asked ME if I had heard anything about BF ads yet. (I've been a BF Shopper for 25+ years!) He said JCP is expecting to open at 4am on BF. Seems the retailers are getting as geared up as we are! With budgets tight, BF ads are more important than ever! Jacquelyn
angelbabymommy Posted September 7, 2009 Posted September 7, 2009 I can't believe it's time already! Seems impossible. Anywho... bring on the ACE ad. We all know it will be the first one. lol.I agree with you about the Ace ad. Hey Brad, when will the holiday discussion boards open?
Brad Posted September 7, 2009 Author Posted September 7, 2009 Hey Brad, when will the holiday discussion boards open?Probably sometime next month.
angelbabymommy Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Probably sometime next month.Cool beans! Thnx!

Miss Star Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Everyday I make a little wish that today will be the day the first ad will be posted
jenna8110 Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Already got my son his "Big" gift -= IPod Touch 16gb. Couldn't pass it up at $250.00. So I will be just looking for a few acessories now for him and the Family Guy box sets and stuff for my daughter. Cannot wait till the ads come!Too bad you didn't wait! Prices just went down on the Touches and they reveled the new ones today!
KaS Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 I can't wait for the first ad to come. I am so excited. My husband thinks I'm crazy thats all I talk about it. I love bf shopping theres nothing like it LOL!

Rebirth Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 When will the countdown timer/image will be posted?
dad2trips Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 The other day my wife asked me if I was taking any extra time off the week of Black Friday. I guess she knows me all too well these past few years. Five years ago she would have asked if I was taking any extra time off the week of Thanksgiving. 39 Days!
wnc_mom Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 well in 2 hrs it'll be 35 days till....ads oh ads where are you???? lol
momof3luvs1 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 well in 2 hrs it'll be 35 days till....ads oh ads where are you???? lol I agree....the ads seem to be coming out much later this year..(especially the big book) or maybe im just getting more impatient!!
Brad Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 I agree....the ads seem to be coming out much later this year..(especially the big book) or maybe im just getting more impatient!!Last year on this date we had Polo Ralph Lauren and Harbor Freight (not counting the Ace ad that was taken down), so the ads are not coming out later this year.
momof3luvs1 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Last year on this date we had Polo Ralph Lauren and Harbor Freight (not counting the Ace ad that was taken down), so the ads are not coming out later this year.you are right, Im just probably more impatient this year! I think it is because the tru big book isnt out yet to occcupy my time:rolleyes: Although I would love for the Ralph Lauren ad to arrive soon like it did last year:tongue1:
Brad Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 Although I would love for the Ralph Lauren ad to arrive soon like it did last year:tongue1:IIRC, the Ralph Lauren "ad" was just one thing - like 20% off a certain $ purchase, so nothing to get too excited about. I think RL sent it directly last year. Maybe I should e-mail them and see if they have this year's offer finalized.
crystalp Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Ever since I went about 4 years ago for the first time, I have been hooked. My first time was with my SIL and then the following year I drug my husband out. Last year my DH had to work and I didnt have anyone to go with, so I ended up just going to walmart by myself and buying a few things. This year, DH took the day off to go. I am sooo excited! I am just itching for these ads to get out. I have been telling everyone I know that they should shop black friday. It was crazy, at my daughters girl scout meeting the other night another mother (also an avid black friday shopper), and I were telling another mother that she should go on black friday. She said she had to be to work at eight, and I was like get up really early and go before work or shop online! It was so funny! I sooo cant wait. Anyone else excited like me??
dawnelise0004 Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 CrystalP I'm the same way about telling people. I was paying my car insurance this morning and started telling my agent about GottaDeal. She's never been BF shopping, but by the time we got done talking she was like, "I think I'll have to go out this year". I think a big draw for people is when they found out they can have some advance notice about what's in the ads. A lot of people I know never shopped BF but once I showed them ads from here several weeks before BF last year, they ended up going out because they could really plan a strategy and get in and get out as quickly as possible. I start thinking about BF in like July...lol.
jennie_bebe Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 Ugh...the wait is killing me this year...are we there yet!?!?! :)
Angelseyes28 Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Sitting here constantly checking to see if more BF ads have been posted and it made me think that I feel like a junkie waiting on a fix but I'm worried that once the shipment gets here, it won't be the "good stuff" LOL
