Ciao!

The End………………………….

zekeburger1979

Thanks speedy! My wallet is going to be hurting on Friday morning, but it will be worth it!

MrChaos

Thanks Speedy! Nothing worth braving the crowds for though.

Rypro 525

any specials on dvd recorders?

Pitchman

Great job as always, Speedy! Thanks!

One question, though. Are you sure about season 1 of Arrested Development being on sale for $9.99? I saw a poor scan of the ad the other day and I thought for sure it had a picture of the season 3 cover (the one with the paint roller) in it.

Rypro 525

Also, got a question, I've never been to a black friday event, is getting there at like 1 or 2 am be conistered too early? And are the big 7 hour stuff (like tv's and cameras and what not) marked and up front?

MadonnasManOne

Thanks, Speedy!

One question, however. In the store notes section, you've posted this:

"EVERYONE: Enter to win a $4,000 Panasonic 50" Plasma Home Theater System // 24 Lucky winners in November // Pick up your game piece at any Circuit City store for your chance to win a $5 - $500 merchandise card and you'll be automatically entered to win a spectacular Home Theater System with installation"

That is the Circuit City promotion, right? I think you may have mixed in the store notes section of Circuit City with the Best Buy circular. Just a heads-up.

speedy1961

Thanks .... I did....

speedy1961

I'll report back after work today..... (sigh)

running from 1 job to another and posting like a madman this week.....

Here's one from above:
[*]Toshiba DVD-R/RW Recorder // Model D-RW2 >>>> $79.99 // Minimum 20 per store // Limit 1 per customer // No rain checks

speedy1961

Probably not.

This is the first time that I remember Best Buy handing out tickets to get in.

Usually the specials are in their respective areas and you can tell what people think are the hottest deals by the direction the inital crowd takes off in.

1 Year at KMart, I got caught up in a Video Game system rush. It was like being carried along by a tsunami. Once I freed myself of it, I had the pick of the OTHER specials that I was looking for....

I gotta believe that the biggest thing will be the cheap DVDs and notebooks.

In my mind preparation is KEY and knowing where you have to go is most important. I have in past years staked out my route the day before.

Also I've listed the minimum store quantities. These amounts are SURE to create a feeding frenzy mentality.

All in all, if prepped properly the experience can be a lot of fun.

speedy1961

I'll report back.

On my way to second job now for 6 AM.

king slug

YES!!!! Sorry, I'm just excited I didn't see anything.

Sweat deals on Prison Break, and My Name Is Earl. I did see Fun With Dick an Jane for $4.99, but it's not worth going through those crowds.

sotra

Some places they line up even earlier. The good thing about being in the line and getting the ticket(s) to the hottest items is that you can go home (if you live close enough) and catch a few hours sleep/rest and then return to the store at like 10 or 10:30 with your tikcet(s) and get the item(s) you came for.
I did that last year at Best Buy with the portable DVD player they had and they still had most of CDs/DVDs in their early bird sale available too.

GetrDone

how do they do the tickets? do they hand out tickets for each item on sale or is it just one ticket and you can only buy the early bird items if you have a ticket?

sotra

Usually the higher priced items like TVs, laptops, DVD players etc. have tickets. DVDs, CDs, software etc. do not. Last year we were offered 2 or 3 (not of the same item) at my local Best Buy. YMMV though.

kmac2878

Thanks!

akira7

Could you specify if that's Metal Gear Solid 3: Substance for the PS2?

TexasDVDer

When I have been in line at Best Buy different people came out at different times for each of the big interest specials. They would hand the vouchers out starting at the front of the line working toward the back. Some items would obviously go quicker than others and quantities available differed.

A couple of years ago I wanted to get a desktop for my oldest. I was given the ticket at 4:00 or so. I had gone into the store Wednesday and eyeballed where some of the minor things were. When the store opened I went and got those, went to the computer checkout, paid and was taking the first load out at 6:05 (6:00 opening). People were still pouring in.

Don't think you can get there at 3:00 for a 5:00 opening and get the most popular items.

speedy1961

A magnifying glass reveals:

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

speedy1961

Tickets will be handed out at 4 AM.

Perhaps another DVDTalker will have more input on this.

speedy1961

Sorry... It is Season 3..... Text amended

speedy1961

The only other DVD recorder in the ad other than the one I gave you this AM is:

Samsung Progressive Scan DVD Recorder / VCR combo
Model DVD-VR330

$249.99 BEFORE $50 Mail In Rebate


Minimum 10 per store // Limit 1 per customer // No rain checks.

That's all my friend.

Rypro 525

Also, i was hoping that the office season 2 would have been on sale for 19.99 as well, oh well (season 3 of AD for 10 bucks is so mine)

speedy1961

Some weird groupings of TV DVD sets this year.

Only Costco beat the $10 AD price.

Be well Rypro 525. Have a safe holiday.

dpz301

thanks speedy. might not make in that early because i dont want to fight the crowds for a few bucks. i would like to get entourage season 2 for 14.99 if i make it over and its still there. fun with dick and jane for 4.99 isn't bad either.
