What are you targeting on Black Friday

[Miramonti]

If you go out (or buy on the internet), what are you going to try and score on Black Friday?

 

[bl4ckfl4g]

I haven't seen too many great deals this year except for on TVs which I don't need.

I'll be staying up for amazon though. If the video game deals are like last year it'll be worth it.

You couldn't pay me to go out shopping on Black Friday...

There's not a dammed thing I need badly enough to brave the throngs of women shoppers who will kill you to save a couple of bucks on the things on their lists...

Now internet sales...maybe I'll look, but I'm not looking FOR anything.

copycat!

I'm probably working on Black Friday. If not, then I'll go hiking.

I found out I can save even more money by not participating.

 

[Platypus]

This sounds completely pathetic. But major kitchen appliances. I need a dishwasher but also want to go stainless through the whole thing. Microwave, Gas Stove, and Refridgerator.

Racist!

 

[Gunslinger08]

I have to work this year since they changed our holidays.

 

[fatpat268]

Nothing in particular, maybe a bluray or few games, but I'll get those online.

I don't need any tvs, computers, game consoles, mp3 players, cell phones, etc. I already got all those and don't need anymore now. And I don't typically buy those things as gifts either, so BF doesn't really interest me anymore.

 

[lokiju]

I haven't seen anything I'm eyeballing even online.

I refuse to go to stores on Black Friday.

Not worth the headache for a shitty deal.

 

[oogabooga]

I will be sleeping comfortably in my bed hopefully.

Moron... he should have got some press coverage first. A good regional news story has to be good for at least a few extra $K's.

 

[BlahBlahYouToo]

wtf, ppl still wake up early for BF?
that's sooooo 2004.

In case anyone is really interested in reading responses, we do have a whole forum on this subject with a thread already made. But since the Black Friday forum is partially hidden and rarely used, this isn't a repost: http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2019681

I had my eye on Photoshop Elements 8 since my wife wants it (the free open source program, The GIMP, is good enough for me). But I found it for $29.99 ($70 off) plus free digital camera over on FatWallet. So, I just bought it yesterday.

I also have my eye on a 500+ GB external USB drive that goes for $60 or less. I haven't seen any Black Friday deal yet that is tempting (too small capacity). I just missed a 1TB external drive deal for that price before I decided to get this drive. I might just end up spending $70 a piece for two, but I'm hoping for $60.

If there happens to be a good deal on a desktop computer, I'll snatch it. The $239 computer at Office Max seems the best fit for me (Dual Core Athlon, 3GB, 500 GB HD, DVD burner with Lightscribe, Win 7). Then I'll just add in a video card and have a good enough computer for $300ish. The processor is a bit wimpy on that computer, but the next most similar computer with a much better processor (Intel E8400) is currently running $469 (video card included).

New monitor in the 22" to 24" range. But since my wife wants to get this for me for Christmas she'll be out and about early while I sleep in.

 

[MotF Bane]

new 24" monitor. this one is going south in a hurry.

 

[JTsyo]

I'm going to keep an eye out for a PS3 but I won't be camping outside or anything. Might try my luck with Swoopo.

I do all of my BF shopping at home at 4am, sleep until noon and casually stroll into the stores to pick up my crap. Its not worth spending 8-12 hours out in the cold/snow to save $300 on a TV
