Never have, but it wouldn't be too difficult to do I suppose. I was just at Target an hour ago and they had already moved everything into 'sale positions' -- I could tell from the endcaps what would be the Black Friday sale items.

One downside...while I was there looking at a display, an employee came along removing all of the sale tags from the Sunday-Wednesday sale. I stopped her and asked how I would know what was on sale now. She seemed taken back by my inquiry and mumbled something about checking the price on anything I was interested in... Seemed kind of strange to be getting things ready before the store closed on Wednesday. I have a friend who works at Circuit City who's going in an hour before the store opens to help 'set up.'

Talk about Thanksgiving stuffing!

i dont think i'll spend more than $60. i'll hit up best buy, circuit city, and target, in that order. not alot of great deals this year.

Stayin' home. Buying way too much crap online, while eating turkey and trimmins. The benefits of staying at home and finding deals online has its benefits.

Bought alot of stuff online. Staying home with cold pizza, beer and a hooker...

I've been known to try to tuck some DVDs here and there ahead of time.

Personally I'm not sure where I'll go this Friday. I actually kind of like the craziness. I'm thinking about Wal-Mart for the $50 DVD player, but I'm also liking the $167 22" widescreen monitor that Target has (plus South Park season 10 for $14.99).

Other than that, I'm not too impressed with the DVD sales. I was hoping someone would have "Spider-man 3" on sale, but alas...

Speedy, always a pleasure to see you post on here.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Going to Circuit City with a couple friends. We're going to try and be there by 5-6PM Thanksgiving Day. We're all buying TVs or laptops, so we want to make sure we get them.

I'm getting the 42" Sharp Aquos HDTV for 800$ there. Probably pick up Season 3-5 of Smallville there as well.

Then, off to Best Buy/Target, doesn't really matter. Picking up a couple of DVDs at both stores, maybe, just going to play it by ear.

Then heading home after eating breakfast, set up the new HDTV and sleeping till it's time for my LSU Tigers to crush Darren McFadden and the Arkansas Razorbacks...in HD...while eating Thanksgiving leftovers.

Then I'll probably head out again to hhgregg to try and get a Toshiba A3 for 150$.

Pretty busy day, but one of the best of the year.

might even venture out to k-mart tomorrow to see what dvds are on sale.

as for friday, only best buy has some good dvd deals and a 500gb external hard drive i'm interested in. depending on what mood i'm in, i might brave going to target/cc/wal-mart/fye afterwards. nothing amazing on sale this year though... or at least it doesn't seem that way. no big ticket items i'm interested in. people were waiting outside best buy TODAY for the $199 laptop (that's what they said when i asked them. didnt really pay attention to computer stuff on the ad). kinda surprising. i can see waiting after thanksgiving dinner. but almost two days in advance?

i agree with a previous poster about the people-watching/crowds of black friday. never been in a situation with trampling or over-the-top craziness/fistfights. it's always been fun going shopping with my friends and checking out the deals. it's certainly an experience.

I really haven't seen the black friday ads yet, so my game plans are unknown.

What is at Target that people are getting? I did see that Shoe Carnival had a $10 gift card to the first 100 people, and Shoe Carnival is next door to Target where I live. I could kill two birds with one stone...

I'm staying in, I might go to Circuit City around noon to see if the Cds/DVDs on sale are still there. I'll try to buy them online for the Black Friday price first. The Best Buy by me would let people in then stop them so as not to go over the fire safety limit. Standing in line to check out is about a 2 hour process. No thanks.

Planning to be in Oxnard by 5 AM, not quite sure which store to hit first, but will probably hit at least 10 by noon.

Well, since Best Buy has few DVDs on sale online already, that solves my problem of going to Best Buy. Now I just need to go to the mall, hitting up some purses, beauty products, jewlery stores, and Macy's for my sis and mom, then I will be done. Since I can get presents for my dad and older brother at ND bookstore. Hopefully the mall is not as crazy as Bert Buy (meaning, I do not have to stand in the cold for hours just to get in).

I had planned to camp out at the store with the most appealing big ticket deal and then dart around picking up various bargains at the other usual stores.

Then I actually saw the ads and decided to lay in bed all day and occasionally scratch myself.

For African-American Friday, if I'm up at 5am (like I am today), I'm going to go to Fry's and get a PS3 w/ 5 free blu-rays.

Then I'm heading over to Circuit City to pick up South Park seasons 8 & 9 for $18.99 each. Then over to Target to pick up season 10 for $14.98 and Call Of Duty 4 for $48.

whitetigeress

I will probably head to target and walmart after work tomorrow.

lisadoris

Leaving at 6:30 to grab some breakfast and heading to the mall. Not because anything I want is on sale but because I too enjoy people watching and walking around. Hope to be back home enjoying leftovers by 3pm.

Snowmaker

No Best Buy near you, eh?

I have a feeling Target will have ALL South Park seasons for $14.98. I remember last year they only advertised one season of 24 for $16.99, but ended up having them all at that price.

dhmac

I avoid the early morning Black Friday "doorbuster" sales entirely and just go to the stores either on Friday afternoon or sometime on Saturday (most of these sales go through Saturday) for the rest of the "Black Friday" sales, when things have quieted down a lot.

nodeerforamonth

Actually, there's a Best Buy right across the street from Target. Are they having South Park on sale? I didn't notice. Also, their PS3 deal is Spider-man 3, Open Season, and an NBA game. Frys' PS3 deal is a blu-ray remote and 5 blu-ray movies (spidey, 300, etc...)

If I can avoid Circuit City, I certainly will! Last year, I showed up at 6am (hey, I couldn't sleep!) and tried to pick up South Park season 8 for $20. It was so disorganized and after waiting in line and not moving for what seemed to be an hour, I just got fed up and left.

Artman

Ha ha, sounds like a good one - I'm in!

Seriously, I've come to the conclusion that no matter the savings...it's not worth it.

pbro83

Yes, online they have them for 14.99 (however most are sold out now), I don't see any reason they shouldn't have it same price in-store.

nodeerforamonth

Yeah, just got the paper and it will have it in the stores too. Cool... I guess I can go to Frys, then get everything else at Best Buy.
