Dad picked up an HDTV. My mom says that's his favorite thing in the world, and since he was watching on a 20 year old 19 inch TV, I'd say he's pretty darn happy at the moment.

So, I've been busy and haven't been around a computer

Have I missed these amazon deals?

TCL L42FHDE30 42" 60Hz Slim-Bezel LCD HDTV for $179
Toshiba 40E220U 40" 1080p 60Hz LCD HDTV for $179
Haier L32A2120 32" 720p 60Hz LCD HDTV for $97
Panasonic TC-L32C5 32" 720p 60Hz LCD TV for $189
 
I just got off work early, I'm sick. We were understaffed. It wasn't so bad today, midnight releases for CoD are far, far worse. Our new employee got fired because he was too slow. I blame the manager for not properly training him, and making him work on Black Friday. We just hired him on tuesday, he was a hard worker and never complained either, and was polite and owned up to his mistakes. Manager didn't care, he said time was money and it's a sink or swim deal.

And yet our manager wonders why we're so understaffed.

Lol don't you work at Gamestop? Wow serious business apparently.

Thanks to this thread I wasn't pointed to any deals on Keurig Machines and I'm having to waste another half a pot of coffee for my morning fix thanks a lot GAF and Graverobber who chose to ignore my PM's.

Nope not salty at all.

Can someone explain what this "100% Claimed" line in amazon lighting round is.

Sorry for the ignorance.

It means everything of the product they have was claimed, but not necessarily purchased. If they're not purchased within the 15 minute time limit then they go toward the people in the wait list.
 
Gamefly has a PC direct download of AC3 for $40 after NOV20OFF coupon code. Not a deal to set the world on fire, but I haven't really seen any AC3 PC deals.

Got a new DSi for my kid for $80 at Kmart last night. She's 5 so she will be super happy to have something that plays her DS games and has a camera. I hope that was a good deal, have not seen them cheaper anywhere else.

Yep, got it with 99% claimed..

Taking the other one back to mush mouth at Gamestop.. Will flip magazine rack on the way out!

Yeah. My manager is a "sink or swim" guy. he's a conservative as well, and gives rants about liberals and how the Government is lieing to us about what really happened on 9/11. it's really annoying because you can't really argue with him, he hates being wrong, ever.

Lol amazon is fucked. They just put a $500 miter saw on a lightning deal, it was gone the instant it went live. Yeah I somehow doubt people are scrambling for $25 off a $500 tool.

If Amazon was smart, they'd give Prime members a 10 second headstart on all of their lightning deals. They'd sell so many subscriptions.

Found a $99.99 android 4.0 8GB 7" tablet on Walmart.com. Seems to have good reviews, 5 hour battery life, WiFi. Says it was originally $179.99. Sure its no iPad or whatever and seems like a no name brand, who is HKC??? But mainly wanted something to Netflix on other than computer. Last tablet I had was junk, not even had android 1.6 or something. And we are kinda on a budget, so... better than nothing.

Getting it for Christmas.

Awesome haul! I should start doing that, just saving up throughout the year, then go ballistic on Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

For those that are looking at cheap online data backup, CrashPlan are having a huge black friday sale where the yearly subscription is 98% off (the price is supposed to go up until Cyber Monday when it will be down to 42% off). I've used crashplan at work and its pretty darn great. At $2-3, its def. worth getting.

Do you regret going that early? At my store, as long as you came before around 6-7pm (the flood of people basically didn't come til around after everyone had dinner), you were pretty much guaranteed any big ticketed item you wanted.

Thanks for helping stimulate the retail sector

Bought some things yesterday and today, but nothing really for black friday specifically. Ended up ordering a monitor/tv from Amazon; seems like a monitor first and a tv second which is what I wanted, but I can't tell if the panel will be good enough for PC games. Oh well

Don't be mad Rob, there's always Xmas and post Xmas sales.

Nah, I'm good now. Got the amazon ps3 bundle with 98% claimed. So I'm feeling good.

I'm just a little hurt that Graverobber didn't want to help me.. and ignored my PM all week..Wah..wah..wah...
 
Grabbed a GE Washer and Dryer from Home Depot online. Prices reduced from ~$550 to $399 each. With all the additional trinckets needed, ended up paying $818 for a savings of $350.

30% off basically. I'm happy.
 
Jak and Daxter collection or Ratchet and Clank collection if you had to choose?

Where's J&D collection on sale??

Also, picked up the 3D PS3 TV @ Best Buy for $99. Place was completely picked over, but unadvertised special was just sitting there (like 6 of them) on a shelf on the PS3 aisle with no price tag. :D
 
Newegg had Kingston 240 GB SSDs for super cheap but they are currently out of stock. Amazon just had a lightning deal earlier this morning for 130 dollar 240 GB SanDisk SSDs.

I'm waiting for Monday though for the real tech deals.

Want some of those 512gb SSDs to drop in price....
