You're in gaming right now. Its always been in off-topic as there are not enough gaming deals to make a gaming-side thread (and the other disucssion clogged up out gaming deals thread last year).
Last year it began the day before Thanksgiving and ran through Nov. 30th. If it's the same this year it'll start Wed. Nov. 23 -> and end Wed. Nov. 30.
For how long? I checked it this morning and it was not available, then it went live at 12:05 EST but the site is broken and their phone number is overloaded.

You're correct. It went live at noon and the site is going bonkers.
For at least an hour at around 11:30 PST, I went to sleep after that so I don't know how long it remained up. I do know the site was showing regular prices until you added stuff to your shopping cart though.undecided said:
I have the same question. Really want to pick up that Zelda 3DS bundle.

For anyone here who is a BB Premier Silver member, is Best Buy including the Sharp TV in this Monday sale nonsense?
Nope, but there are other deals (not as good as that one though).
For anybody who is Premier Silver and is trying to get the deals and is having a hard time with the site, use the mobile site, works great and I checked out pretty quickly with what i wanted.

I'm good on games for a long while. Still have Uncharted 3 shrink wrapped, and Skyrim and Batman: AC to dig through.
I'm more looking for PC this year. My checklist:
-New PC build (still rocking AM2/AMD 5850, but ready to move on)
-Blu-Ray Deals
-Stuff for my office (wireless keyboard/mouse, etc)
I'm on the TV search for my parents though. They are looking for a 46", at a decent price. Need to start digging in on research to see which would be the best route (they are looking to spend $500-700).

Best Buy's site is basically unusable right now. And when I do get through it says some stuff in my Reward Zone account doesn't match up with my Best Buy account... Even though I have the Premier Silver or whatever, I doubt I'll ever be allowed to buy anything due to the shitty site.
Bring on more Amazon deals :|

SO many people are after that Sharp $200 HDTV. You'll have an easier time playing pick-up sticks with your butt-cheeks than getting that TV on Friday.
They're putting up and taking down games daily. Black Friday will probably have some of the daily sales brought back, but most of the good stuff will be Lightning Deals.SSJ1Goku said:
Today's Lightning Deals are up, seems like its mostly PSP stuff:
- 12:00 PM PST - Will you become the next Dragonmaster in this classic RPG reborn on the PSP?
- 1:00 PM PST - In this PSP game, save Altago from long-forgotten ancient forces, and reunite the estranged five tribes who serve and protect the Five Great Dragons.
- 1:59 PM PST - The City is your weapon in this PSP racing game - trigger explosive, devastating events lined throughout the track that drastically alter the dynamics of the race.
- 3:00 PM PST - Compete in a series of action-packed game grid challenges, in your quest to become the ultimate Grid Games champion.

UGH! I'm trying to order the Zelda 3DS and best buy's servers have been taking a crap for over an hour now (premier Silver members get early access to all black firday sales fyi). Guess they did not count on so many early shoppers.
Edit:
Finally went through Zelda bundle for 179.99

The TVs on Amazon....not worth it based on prices
We do boxing day, day after Christmas. Usually some pretty good deals but nothing massive. That said, Black Friday deals don't look as crazy as they used to be from what I've been seeing in recent years.

Come the fuck on, Amazon. Kinect for $125?! Match that shit to $99.99 like everyone else.
I've got a $10 credit and $20 in Discover card crewsrds credits waiting to be used!

I'm a little disappointed there aren't any Dark Souls for $30 deals. I still haven't gotten it (because NewEgg screwed my on the preorder), and because I don't have much time to play right now, have been waiting for the price to drop. Seems to me like it would be a game whose sales would be helped my a holiday price dip.
Oh duh, Grid Games. Went right over my head.
Two more lightning deals for Amazon:
