Black Friday/Cyber Monday

[Sazabi]

What will you guys be staying up for or battling the crowds and massive lines to purchase?

I'm staying home this year; except for a couple USB drives that I need, I don't think I am going to be getting anything else, thankfully. @_@

I never fight the crowds.Except for food I do 90% of my shopping on line.I have found great deals on cyber Monday and close to Christmas.My friends call me "the deal finder".I have plenty of time to devote to finding deals.It is almost like a game to me.

omg this is the time to get stuff too! good idea for this thread

yesterday we seen a "pre-black" sale from Bestbuy for a Toshiba 55-inch 1080p LCD HDTV for 800 bucks with free shipping (conus)!!!

I got a 230 dollar Makita lithium drill last year for 99 shipped free. if I only had money this year lol doh

this year i'll be neck deep in retail madness... i gotta help support the inventory team at my job (big electronics store)


 

not sure how it's going to work..this year we are opening at midnight

either it's going to be a madhouse because people are going to get in line way early or the masses will eat their turkey and pass on us.

Given that it's a Best Buy, I suggest bringing a helmet.

appears that tvs, tablets, and ereaders are this years holiday fodder.

i'm keeping an eye out for one of those big Husky ratchet/socket sets  the black chrome one at Home Depot, flashlights, tools for cheap

[Sazabi]

Pacu, does your HD ever carry decent flashlights?  I've heard stories of people finding Surefires and even Streamlights, but the best mine carries is Maglite. o.O

HD or BB?

*points*  I was asking about Home Depot. ^^;

[Grant Lamontagne]

Big Target works at HD in New Jersey if that helps.

Ah, cool.   I know I live in a badly hit area due to the economy, but I'm just surprised at all of the cool items some peoples' big box stores carry. o.o

i think i've seen some cheaper surefires but HD always runs LED mags for 10 bucks during christmas. I always grab a few for work , friends, stocking stuffers. Not a bad light for $$. I think they had a XL mag for under 25 bucks last year too.

I've seen a few Depots with a Case knife assortment too. Just yellow mainly and sodbusters.

I spent too many years working retail, and because I'm apparently big and imposing, being part of the black friday oh-dark-thirty team. Not tempted.

Well, maybe a little.

Ok, ok, if anyone has 64gb thumbdrives for like $30, I might do it.

[Sazabi]

I'm hoping for a couple ~$10 16GB USB drives, myself; Newegg has gotten close to that, just not in a brand I'd prefer. :/
