Official Black Friday Thread (merged)

Who's getting prepared, and what do you plan on getting this year?

http//www.bfads.net

Best Buy ad is already up, I'm planning on getting the Western Digital MyBook 250gb external HD, $70.

Do you guys think this would be the best time of year to get a nice LCD or a plasma TV?

Probably.

Check bfads.net for rumors and deals for Black Friday.

Yeah I've got it bookmarked now. +karma for the link D

Not me. I stock up on groceries and then sequester myself for the entire week following Black Friday. You can't get me [i0e01563661]near[/i0e01563661] a store. There isn't a deal known to man that I would endure that for. I'll consider standing in a civil line for 4 hours to buy a new gaming console, but Black Friday lines are never civil, and I can't stand the crowds. Crowds make me very very cranky. I'm getting cranky now just thinking about it. I think I need to ban someone, maybe it'll relieve this tension...

People at the Best Buy I go to are generally very nice and talk to you.

We save spots for each other, etc. A 250gb external HD for $70, Western Digital no less, is a damn good deal, and one I will gladly wait 3 hours for. There are other things I want as well, so I expect I will get a lot of things I want for Christmas at this sale.

Yeah, no MIR on the WD either.

I always look here

I'm aiming for the laptop at best buy. Is it good?

For the price, I'd say so. Built-in wireless (Centrino), even if it's not dual-core, it's still HP, with 80GB HD and 1GB RAM, CD/DVD burners.

Okay this year will be my first Black Friday, what is the average campout time?

CompUSA can complicate things if they pull another Midnight Madness sale. There's noting worse than lining up for CUSA, then staying out all night for the 5 and 6AM openings. http//forum.freeipodguide.com/smilies_mod/upload/e096f892756d0954a193bcda6fbf6f83.gif[" alt=""/imge10511b75b]

Sweet! AD season 3 for $9.99!!

I'm aiming for a few DVDs from BestBuy and the 250GB Western Digital MyHome harddrive w/ USB and Firewire transfers, only $70

I'm really considering going for this Hitachi 51" HDTV.

Look at the first item ---

http//bfads.net/features/tv/

When do you guys think I should show up at BB for it?

thats sweet!! gl w/ getting one lol even teh sears isnt bad...

Should I get there at 1200 AM or what?

That depends on where you live and what you want, I guess.

For a $300 laptop, I'd be there by 10PM at the latest in a big city. You have to camp out for something like that. It's almost like the PS3.

yep, or if its best buy I heard a rumor, that you could buy it early and take it back in (they have some 30 day if there price goes lower they'll refund ya) and you get the difference back (to quarentee you get it), but each store is different so you have to ask ahead of time...

Its $50 more right now at CC.

Hmmm... I think I'll just go down and look at it today. If I like it I guess I'll buy it.

are black friday sales only in the USA? I live in N.S Canada....no bestbuy near me, only wal-mart, staples and radioshack and they just all suck.
