Does anyone know what time the Amazon Lightning Deals start each morning? It seems that they stop each night around 10pm Pacific.

 

[hayejin]

Usually 8 AM.

 

[See You Next Wednesday]

So what are the best deals on TVs so far?

 

[Puddles]

Usually 8 AM.

Eastern time?

 

[JLG-]

Eastern time?

Going off the movies/tv black friday calendar the lightning deals start at 8am pacific time. Except on black friday which they will start at 12am.

 

[golem]

Hmm any good deals on the 3DS XL? The Target normal 3DS deal seems ok..

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Anyone know what the best music equipment/instrument stores would be for BF?


Or is it cheaper to wait for cyber monday?

 

[JDeluis]

I heard some people are putting the Walmart $15 games on layaway, does this actually work?

Won't work. Black friday game deals come in big pallets that will be opened at 8pm. They have a sticker with a different upc number.

 

[Puddles]

As I suspected, it doesn't look like Amazon is doing the tv deals today.

The 32" tv will be on sale again at 3pm Pacific. The same one that's been on sale before.

Anyone know what the BF sales will be at Apple Stores?

 

[Puddles]

Oh, I see it. There's no picture, just a box.

I'm not sure if I want to do that or hold out for a 40 incher. Is 32' adequate for a small living room?

For the price, I say hold out. If the past few days are anything to go by, today deal will be around $150.

Damnit, Best Buy decided to put the Sony PS3 3D display at $100. Not sure if I want to upgrade my 32", get the 3D display, or both (for my gaming setup). Best Buy really stepping their shit up again this year.

 

[XMonkey]

www.deepdiscount.com is having their BF sale right now. A lot of shit to go through, but there are some gems. Kino titles are cheaper than anywhere before for starters. Worth checking out.

 

[Puddles]

Anyone know if Best Buy's $199 Xbox 360 250GB holiday bundle deal will be available online, or do I have to try to go to the store to get it?

 

[foladar]

Fair enough.

Just have the site open for the gold box deal. There's already a counter that will count seconds off until the next item is live so I'd probably just chill in front of the computer within the last two minutes of the previous deal. Then, once the item you want goes live, just go for it. If you don't have 1-click purchasing set up yet, do that beforehand as it'll make everything that much easier since you basically click -> buy -> done with just 1 step.

I don't think one click purchasing works with their gold box, but you have ~10 mins to check out anyway.

You know if it possible to put things on layaway on black friday? I know it sounds dumb but just a thought

 

[GManDH]

i honestly think that last years was much better. i mean techwise it gets better every year but overall, last year was much better. and ive never shopped on cyber monday, is it that much better or not really?

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

guys looking for a good TV deal. should i look into it on Black Friday or wait for Cyber Monday?

 

[brianmcdoogle]

I'll ask one more time, but:

Does anyone know a place selling Windows 8 OEM for cheap? I need a copy for boot camp on a Mac, so the upgrades of Windows 8 won't work. It must be used as a fresh OEM installation.

Thanks.

 

[Askani]

guys looking for a good TV deal. should i look into it on Black Friday or wait for Cyber Monday?

Same. I don't know what to do as this is my first real Black Friday experience.

I was thinking about the 39" LED from Samsung in the Walmart ad. Tiger Direct has it now for the same price as the ad with free shipping.

[DietRob]

Keurig Machine?

 

[twinturbo2]

When can I buy Black Friday stuff off of Best Buy's website? Will that start on Thanksgiving evening?

Windows 8 topic? Doesn't seem like something that would see a black friday deal.

[G-Fex]

Before I go to work tonight and tomorrow, I have one thing to say.

I hate you all, you're all part of the problem.

 

[Ace 8095]

Does anyone know when the 60" vizio on amazon is going on sale?

I know it doesn't look quite reliable but here's the post on CAG that I got it from:
http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=332389

Doesn't really seem like anybody on there is calling bullshit which is a good sign.

Thanks! I will check it out when the sale goes live. I think it's worth $100 even if it's not the best display out there.

 

[G-Fex]

nah I'd rather blame you.

 

[ckohler]

So Sony says the Vita bundles will be $199 on Friday and Saturday. Does that mean at every retailer? If I go to Walmart (who isn't even having a sale on the Vita), I should expect any Vita bundles they have to ring up as $199 simply because Sony has said so?

Here's what they said: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/16/exclusive-black-friday-deals-for-ps3-and-ps-vita/

How does this work?

 

[SSGMUN10000]

I decided to stop by Best Buy today to just browse around. Lo and behold I bumped into my wife's cousins who pitched there tents yesterday and are number 1 in line for black friday. Chatted with them a bit and one of the cousins has like 7 kids so the one per limit restriction doesnt phase them. From what I know they do every black friday, buy as much as they can and resell most of it.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Hoping to get some cheap games.

Hopefully nobody gets trampled to death this year. Black Friday brings out the worst in some people :-\

 

[tino]

Match what?

 

[brianmcdoogle]

When does Best Buy start their online sales? I had two external hard drives crap on my in the last week, and I need to replace them, so I was going to get the external seagate ones.

 

[Jackben]

nah I'd rather blame you.

I blame your avatar's source spawning children of terrible genetics into this world.

I was out today, buying an xbox 360 holiday bundle at Best Buy as a present. The clerk ringing me up asked me why I was buying it today, when I could get it for $50 less on Friday. I explained how I am too claustrophobic to fight the crowds and mentioned how it was a present for a neighborhood halfway house for adults with development disabilities. She asked a passing manager over, explained the situation, and the manager adjusted to price down to the Black Friday price!

Got to love customer service like that.

 

[MrJames]

The price on the 3TB Seagates you posted. Looks like they ran out of stock.

I feel your pain and will not be shopping on black friday. It is a god damn clusterfuck of plebian greed. My aunt is missing thanksgiving dinner cause her store is open till 6:30 on Thanksgiving Day. Fuck Black Friday.

As someone who works as a CSR, this makes me happy.

Yeah I really am not seeing anything worth standing around and fighting crowds for.
