Get your thermos full of coffee, and your portable chairs ready. It’s that time again for getting goods on the cheap. Apparently the first Ad to be leaked is Office Max.

LOL, to say the least. I remember 2 years ago at Best Buy (Blvd) when a ton of people rushed the door an hour or 2 early, only to be sent to the back of the line while we took their spots. :fail:

I’m going to be driving the opposite direction of everyone else that day. I live right near the Galleria, and will be heading to Ellicottville for opening day at Holiday Valley if all goes right.

Going to be watching for a portable DVD player after how well the one I borrowed worked with my 2.5 year old. 6.5 hours in the car and not a peep from her. Either slept or watched movies with headphone.

I’ll be home watching the kid while my mom and wife attack the sales. I guess it works much better as a team because one can stand in line with the other runs around grabbing stuff.

It’s not going to affect prices in the least bit. Prices from an electronics standpoint have been coming down for years (as technology evolves). Yes, CC had helped drive competition but so have online dealers.

You’re not going to see the same 32" brand XY tv that sold for $349 last year sell for $399 this year just because CC isn’t around.

DO NOT BUY ANY VENTURER PRODUCTS. NO TRUETECH, NO RCA, NO KAWASAKI, NO DURABRAND.

I didn’t even have to leave the house last year for this. I got all the same deals online the day before.

Got a tv, netbook, and tools at stupid cheap prices. Many of the stores are offering the same items online, you just have to keep looking for them and checking out the deal sites.
