What are you targeting on Black Friday

[Don66]

Going to work on time!

Watching all the trailer trash fight for a couple of pieces of electronics.

(That includes higher forms of life without a life)

Good Times.......

I'm pretty happy. I've got a Mac, an iPhone, and a camera/camcorder. Life is good from a nerd-toy perspective.

Hey Super Moderator. How about fixing the link so that it shows up on the left?

 

[IceBergSLiM]

I dont see any BF deals for guns & ammo

 

[Gooberlx2]

Wife and I will be in Wyoming visiting family. There aren't any real stores within 2-hours driving, much less decent internet access.

Doesn't matter, I never partake in BF deals anyway. Saving some $$$ on shit isn't worth standing in line at 4am, to me.

Sometimes its worth it at least a few years ago it was at Frys. Last years ad was a dud though. I know a lot of sheep still waited in line.

 

[CRXican]

possibly a netbook if they're really $150

I used to get up for BF deals, and got tired of falling victim, every year, to what were essentially bait and switch practices. Stores would have like 3 or 4 of whatever item I want at a great deal. When they immediately sell out there's a stack of alternatives on a display 5 feet away, at full retail price or barely discounted.

And shopping in such a chaotic atmosphere is my idea of hell.

Smart!

You already booked the CT scan for your black friday trampling. You must be a pro! :awe:

Seriously though, good luck.

Keeping an eye out on Steam game deals. Didn't they have like everything 70&#37; off last year? Or am I thinking of something else?

 

[d4mo]

My bed, and staying out of the stores.

it doesn't work that way

don't use the thingy on the left, use the jump drop down menu on the bottom

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.

Do your homework on this one. Stainless steel can be a serious b!tch to clean grease and fingerprints out of etc, sometimes seeming impossible, particularly for the non-high end products. Black shows everything too, but atleast it can be cleaned.

possibly a netbook if they're really $150

I haven't looked at any ads, but a decent netbook at this price could put me in line. Woot often has netbooks for around this price (900mhz iirc, possibly refurbs tho)

 

[PricklyPete]

A car if I can get a good deal.

 

[TallBill]

The same thing I target on every friday, the hottest chick in the bar.

 

[El Guaraguao]

netbooks? why not get a tablet laptop?

 

[chin311]

not going anywhere near a fucking shopping store of any type!

heyyyyyyyyyooooooooo!

 

[Leros]

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

Depends how much your time is worth.

 

[Miramonti]

I didn't know cars were discounted on BF. Do you still have to show up at 4am?

Depends how much your time is worth.

My time and a few hours sleep isn't worth much, particularly if I get back by 7:30 to start work. If I can save $40-$50+ for the effort, I'll do it.
