I live in San Jose, CA which is absolute hell for getting good deals, and I've never camped out more than 4-5 hours out from BF opening and not gotten a door buster I've wanted. Yes, there's people out there in obscene amounts of times, but between large amounts of stock and not everyone in front of you wanting the same things as you - I've never had issue getting a door buster. And Best Buy typically does a ticket system, so it's not just a herd of people racing in to get what they want.

i posted this over in the gaming thread, but its worth posting here too:
Regarding the Wii U deal, with Best Buy's Gamers Club and a refurbished Wii U from nintendo's online store at $200, you can get this bundle right now if you want. Probably cheaper, because this includes tax and shipping.

Even with your example, that means giving up aal of Thanksgiving just to save a little money.

Damn, even Best Buy's ad sucks this year. I'm not going to be spending that much money on Black Friday I guess.

Supposedly these are the full list of blu-rays for Best Buy (stolen from blu-ray.com):

That Galaxy S5 deal for $1 sounds enticising. What does it mean 2 year activation contract?

Nobody carries the Vita in large enough quantities to have any sort of sale on them. I think Sony has quietly put the system out to pasture in Western retail.

Eh, I'm already apart of the family package with AT&T. I need a new phone. Sound doesn't work anymore.

Oh dear... Righteous Kill is on the list of $7.99 BDs. Buy it today and it's only $6.99.
And half of that list is already $7.99... SMH, Best Buy.

As a fan of Resident Evil 4, are The Evil Within and Alien: Isolation worth it for $55?

Meh, was expecting more section.

I think it's a decent list. The only thing is that I already have a lot of these titles. That's what I get for doing Black Friday every year.
Here's more:
Will definitely pick up the last two Breaking Bad seasons if true.

Desperately waiting for WalMart and Amazon's deals...

Are there any good online Xbox One deals?

Amazon just PMs select items from retailer ads as lightning deals. I'm just waiting for Walmart at this point. They usually have the best blu-ray sales.

Are Target's deals generally mirrored on their website?
The Best Buy Wii U deal is way too expensive. Sure, you get a lot of games but you could also buy all them used as well. Granted, I realize that doesn't fit the use case of everyone (wrapping up used games to give to someone as a present) but still. The bundle is assuming all of the games are at the $60 MSRP price point as well which isn't really the case for Super Mario 3D World or Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze in the second hand markets.
Or maybe I'm just sour grapes I can't find the Wii U for $200 (other than refurbished models).

I'm still waiting, hoping Amazon matches some of these deals for black Friday. Looks like the Microsoft store will have some sort of deal too

Haven't seen anything yet, but I remember last year that Seasons 1 & 2 were going for $20 each on blu-ray. Not sure if they were advertised though, but there was a big display of them near the entrance and had a price tag of $19.99 on top of the display.
Thanks, S3 for $20 this year would be great if they do it.

No problem. They did it at Best Buy for sure though I might've seen a display for them at Fry's too.
This is probably the case considering all of the people saying they'd just wait for some ridiculous $100 WiiU bundle on Black Friday. If you want a console at a rock bottom price, there's Target's Xbox One deal.
The WiiU deal is definitely "worth it" in one sense but it's not going to blow anyone's socks off either.
Be aware that signing up for a contract may screw up your Family Plan pricing if you are using Mobile Share.
What's the story behind this?
The premise behind AT&T (and Verizon's) family sharing plan being cheaper is that you are not getting subsidized phones under contract anymore.
If you have one of those $100 for 10GB Mobile Share plans, the only way to upgrade your phone while still keeping that pricing model is to either buy your phone full price or use their Next plan, which is making monthly payments for your phone.
Gamer's Club Unlocked. It's a program that gives you 20% off all new game purchases at Best Buy.

i think this might be it. what other major retailers have yet to release their ads? amazon and walmart? i KNOW there will be a 65" or even 70" deal that will come up after i decide to buy this. or should i even wait until after thanksgiving?

Even consoles?
Someone missed out on last week's crazy deal lol
Awesome program that gets you 20% off a new game, doesn't work on consoles though.

any good non-touch screen gaming (not heavy gaming, just enough to run dota, etc) laptops going on sale on BF? i've been waiting to replace this piece of junk laptop!
Likely unadvertised. Neither game has released yet so showing it for a cheaper price on Black Friday would hurt day/week one sales.
Actually this makes sense, hoping for a last minute sale somewhere after they release.

I might bite on a good Gsync monitor. Are any of those going up for sale on Black Friday?
This deal seems too good to be true. Is this TV probably shitty? I see that Panasonic has very good ratings generally.
What the hell! I just bought the 49" version of this for $250 a month or two ago.
Works perfectly for me ._.
