Does anyone know what time Best Buy opens on Friday?

[brj8826]

The deals only last until noon, but what time does the store open? Normal time of 10 or earlier because of the specials?

 

[Jack159]

I believe its 7am, but I could be wrong....

 

[BentValve]

6am

 

[huesmann]

Well, since their 6-hour sale is from 6am to noon, my guess would be 6am as well.

the manager said that people start lining up around 4:30 am so be sure to get there early

 

[colossus]

haha, hopefully it will be raining in SoCal in the morning. Nothing keeps people away in SoCal like rain - it's a scary sight for us

For those deal hunters out there, even hail wouldn't be a problem (of course any savings would pay for a body work on you car haha).

 

[alm99]

when do the actual flyers come out for black friday? Is it today or thanksgiving?

 

[EvanGeliSt]

What you guys are pulling with this rebuying stuff is jacked up. It's legal, but it shouldn't and won't be for long. Pricematching is one thing, returning and rebuying something is just a way to deprive people who wouldn't dream up such an absurd idea. You're returning something but you also want to buy it back real quick? Soon, maybe not this year, CSRs will tell you that all returns have to be taken back to the stock room and recirculated. That's how it should be.

lol, you a csr? bad experience? told all the good deals after their dead? i agree with you somewhat, but this is how its done these days. get it before hand, or sit outside 2 hours before they open. BB will have a minimum of 10 for you brave folks getting there early.

That's silly. Its no worse that what BB tries to pull with their bait and switch tactics with this 10 per store thing. Ive been there many times when they've opened and being like the 2nd one in the store only to be told "sorry we're already sold out". and this "lets hide all the stock so no one can get the deals ploys". People wouldnt need to resort to rebuying if BB would just stock enough of what they advertise like most reputable stores do.

yea, if BB would stick to their policies. PM? "call walmart yourself, and ask if they have any instock, then maybe we can PM" "since technically bb.com is a different company, they have no stores, and can offer things for cheaper, sorry no PM" "it doesnt matter if i saw you yesterday buying this, you have to have your rec. for all exchanges"

when i was at BB today, the guy said they would get a truck on firday, who knows when it will come. i stand out side for 2 hours in the wee hours of the morning, truck comes in at 9, first come first serve.

staples pulls the same sh*t, thats why im passing out printable coupons on black friday.

i hate my local BB, only go there if they have deals like this. most of the employees at my local BB dont know what their talking about, act like they were trained for 1 thing and cant help with anything else. check stock? at the first BB i went too, i had to wait for the comp employees to check on the ti4200, while i waited for 10 mins for someone to be free, 5 other bb employees walked by, all saying the same thing, i would have to wait for the "knowledgable" (ha) people to check stock. they dont know how to use the freakin comp system??? lazy bast*rds

*this is not a hot deal thread

quit crying and do your homework early, the ones that knew about it and didn't want to risk of getting it too bad for you. for the rest of ppl that actually did this, we deserve it, we did our homework early and we took a risk and we put up 200+ (tax) up front for this.

what's that saying .. if you can't defeat them, join them.. or something like that.

next year i am sure you'll be doing the same thing we are doing, given if conditions stay the same.

 

[BoKingWen]

Friday I will be at BB at 5:30 am.

my shopping list:

1. free CD-R disk
2. HD and Memory combo (dont really need it but what the hell)
3. maybe the dvd player too.....

kekeke

I dont know will there be a lot of those HD combo, I remember the HD deal was gone in 60 second last year.

I've known about this for the past few days and decided not to do it this way. Then again I'm the same guy who ordered a vertical file cabinet from Staples and got two delivered by accident and decided to call Staples and let them know so they could pick up the extra. I hate BB as much as the next guy. If you can do something to legally rip them off, then I'm all for you, but you're ripping off your fellow consumers here, not BB.

 

[J3S73R]

well... i work at a BB in arizona, and... hrm...just a fair warning, we will actually not be accepting any returns/exchanges or anything that day. I am pretty sure this would be for most others too... but not 100% [Basically CSRs' registers are normal registers...

oh and i can admit... some bb employees have no idea what they are talking about heh... and wont help you for anything if it isnt their department... even something as easy as checking stock [Its the same for all the departments... get sku... type in... check it!] Then again... i also suck at "selling" or so do the numbers show... but... i only tell people what i know... and dont... really... hrm... how should i say.... i try not to do what they think is best? [well more stuff ] hehe anyways, just a warning

[not all bb employees are bad ]
