SCORE!

So far I got 2 PSPs for 169 bucks
GTA Liberty City Stories
2 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duos
2 Lexmark all-in-one printers for 29 bucks
And I'm working on 2 of those $250 laptops...

...and I'm not even in America!

Pays to be connected :beer:

Printer looks like a piece of crap, but I'm really just interested in the Scanner, and I can't find one cheaper than 29 bucks in france.
 
I got nothing. Are you kidding me? I slept in and let all of the commercial "goons" go nuts among themselves.
 
3 1gb sd cards $15 each
1 200gb IDE Maxtor $20
1 Hitachi DVD Camcorder $400
2 Gameboy Micros $40 each
1 Game Rocker Chair $40

Walmart was very organised this year. I got in and out in less than 20 minutes. I can barely do that on a normal shopping day.

That's only HALF intelligent. I slept in in another country and STILL got the deals.

Yeah... I'm told Walmart was actually pretty good. That's where I got the 2 PSPs and printers.
 
My Best Buy BF:

2x Westy 22 inch widescreen = 199.99 each
1x Kodak 5.0 MP digital camera = 79.99
1x Samsung Mini-DV camcorder = 129.99
1x 1gb SD card = 15.00
2x Mini DV tapes = 4.99 each
DVD's: Bourne Supremecy, SWAT, Batman Begins, Tokyo Drift, MI:3, and Doom directors cut.

When I got to best buy at 1:35, there were already 170 some people in front of us in line. When they started passing out the coupons for the 7 hour deal items, I managed to get the camera and mini-dv camcorder right before they ran out (second to the last on both of them).

Also, the very first thing I did was run back to the moniters with my friend and we snagged 2 of the 22 inch westys. My uncle got one as well. I had such a good experience on my first black friday!!!!!!
 
Well, I got a NASTY cold for one - Went to stand in line 2 hours early...

2x 1GB flash drive 15$ each
2x Wireless keyboard/Mouse Combo 20$ each
2x DVD-R 10$ each
2x DVD-R 3$ each

The 200GB HD for 20$ were out by the time I got to em, I got ran over =/
 
Logged into staples.com and got

MS Wireless Optical Desktop 5000 for $20 (no rebates)

Now I am going to sleep. Been awake for 23hrs straight.
 
Microcenter (Got there at 11PM, was about 50-60th in line! They had 100 of each LCD model w00t)

Xbox 360 Premium = $299 + $33 Warrenty
Xbox 360 Game = $49.99 (Rainbow Six Vegas)
Olevia 532H 32Inch LCD HDTV = $369.99

Getting all this stuff by spending a little bit of money that I got from selling a PS3 = Priceless

Rofl oh those priceless things are so lame but I had to do it. I gotta ask D94 I hope you had a big truck for that 42/37 LCD, you wouldn't believe it if I showed you the 32in in the back of my coupe L O L. The plus side is that they are uber light. Time to go to sleep now....

Ahhhhhhhhhh..I see now. Commercialism and standing in line for the "privilege" of spending money is a sign of intelligence. Wow, I got this whole college education thing wrong.

Lol nobody says anyone has to go. They do it to get some really good deals.....nothing wrong with that....

Also, black friday really can just be an exciting experience. Not to mention a huge adrenaline rush.
 
At Office Depot they had a Samsung 203B 20" LCD for $180 AR. Seems like a pretty good deal to me.

What do you think? I was deciding between that and CC's 225BW for $280 AR.

I got the last 203B though, and I got there about 30 mins after opening.

I'm pretty sure CC won't be selling out of their 225BWs, as I looked there and it seemed like no one had touched the stack. But, if I wanted to, I could probably return this 203B and get a 225BW... think I should? I'm pretty undecided.
 
So far:

2 17" MAG LCD $80 ea

19" Samsung LCD $130

G15 K/B $60

1gb SD cards 2pk $20

2 DVD movies $3 ea


Not too pleased about BB's ticket thing this year. I got there at 1am and there where ~50 people ahead of me. Those people got all the tickets. There was one ticket left for the 19" LCD and that's it. It it had been a free for all I would have gotten everything I wanted since I got there while they were all still on the shelf. :banghead

Good news I was out of BB by 5:10 and heading towards CompUSA where I grabbed the G15 and SD cards.

No I got to get ready for work and maybe find some more deals :p
