what's the best day to shop on black friday?

[DisturbedRamm]

Cyber Mondays has the best deals, nothing really good for black Friday that I saw

90% of my shopping was completed on or before Thanksgiving, $0 spent today so far.

I almost purchased a Tuft & Needle mattress today.

Did get Google Home Mini for $29 plus a $10 gift card at Target and the Samsung 32" curved monitor for $199 at Walmart and the Razer 4-Piece Gaming Bundle for $99 at Walmart all just walking in during the afternoon yesterday. Don't know if all were the best bargains available, but they were requested items. Worked for me.

Any day you like as long as you do it online. Bonus points for taking off work to do it.

Exactly.

those look amazing, i've never tried one though

i ended up just getting a cheap piece of used memory foam and putting it on a regular mattress

But now that BF is a national phenomenon, there are some boutique shops that will join the bandwagon and have their only sale of the year that day. Those are the ones I'm waiting for.

As predicted, I bought almost entirely from smaller retailers:

- Roost laptop stands had 25% off (they have the best portable stands around)
- Wilson Combat put 1911 parts off for 20% off (bought a couple dozen grips)
- Cabela's had optics on sale (bought two RMRs)
- Midway had ammo on sale
- Dave and Adams had trading cards on sale (bought a case of Firefly cards among others)

The big retailers were good for media. I bought $300 in Blu-Rays from Best Buy and Target. Also got the Logitech 910 keyboard and G900 mouse from Best Buy and another MacBook Air when eBay went to 10% eBay bucks. All told, I spent about $6000.

nice but i think @allisolm has you beat in value/$

i ended up saving maybe 20$ on a couple gifts on amazon, and picked up turbotax for myself

My wife is petite and I'm not, after reading reviews and watching Youtube videos the T&N isn't the right mattress for our needs.

The Loom & Leaf looks promising but paying $1,099 for a queen isn't that appealing. If I knew for a fact it was the perfect mattress for our needs I'd pay for it right now, I'd rather avoid the hassle of invoking their 120 day trial.
