im in the same boat

banana boat :D

My earlier estimates of online sales availability have been vastly exceeded. I've been surprised at the number of great deals BEFORE BF even started. The number of post feast transactions that have poured out of our home today would make any consumer whore proud.

Hell I'm just about done with my Christmas Shopping.

Where are you guys finding the Amazon listings?

Nevermind, was looking in the wrong place.

EDIT: So say I add all I want from the black friday sale to my cart now. If I refreshed said when the sale went live, would the prices change over automatically? Please say yes.
If you are trying to get that PS3, I don't think it will work because it's only the people who amazon chose.

Shadowlink, did you know about that deal?

so circuit city opens at 5am when should i realistically be there to get the 360 arcade with 20gig hard drive deal?
It's your choice, if you really want a 360, then give it a shot :D

seriously or joke?
Really it depends on where you're at. In a busy metro area there's probably already a huge line at your store. Somewhere not so busy and you might be better off.

Drive past and take a look.

In case anyone missed my post 2 pages back, here's a repost:

Honestly, PS3s have always had a huge discount... it's just that you need to sign up for and be approved for a Sony Card. It used to be $100 credit back, but now, it's a $150 credit or $250 for a PS3:

Then there's a new deal that gives you back $200, but you have to spend $1,500 within roughly 4 months to get this deal:

Every time I wanted something on Black Friday from there I had to start camping around 11pm in hopes to get what I wanted.

thanks for the info. i will not be shopping on black friday after all.
 
Looks like that circuitcity 360 deal (20 gig harddrive extra controller) has been online for a while. MIGHT WANNA CHECK to see if the store around you have it in stock. If you buy it online I think you have a couple days to actually go to the store and pick it up. HAVING IT SHIPPED TO YOU IS NOT AN OPTION

Nah, im just trying to get Animal Crossing Wii speak bundle, Left 4 Dead PC (we can return the CC one we bought earlier this week), and possible Infinite Undiscovery and De Blob. Maybe Dead Space.

GREAT FUCKING LOOK, sir.

This works for me; I just bought it and will pick it up tomorrow. Hopefully, it's no muss no fuss. Thanks, dude!

Would anyone recommend the new Brothers in Arms over Heavenly Sword?

Both are 20 dollars, and I've rented HS before and beaten it, but I was wondering if the BiA was worth the price.

What's the cheapest 360 Pro system out right now? It don't need any games unless its bundled with Gears 2.
Edit-Also anyone doing a buy 2 get 1 game free deal like last year?

Fred meyer has a 20% coupon for all games tomorrow. Though if you don't live in the pacific northwest, I guess that doesn't really help.
ALL games? PC included?

Might have to make the trip to my local store to see what they got going on :lol

called it!

After Amazon our Christmas shopping is just about done :D Didn't plan on heading out tomorrow, but the local book store is having a hell of a sale. Going to stock up :]

@ What time you need to line up. It depends on the city you live. However, after the first or second big year people have literally had their Thanksgiving Dinners in line waiting so I said to hell with that. Most of them just pawn the stuff off on E-Bay. The advent of e-sales just turns the internet into a giant woot-off with bags of crap tearing down servers at the appropriate hour :lol

It's weird, I haven't really bought much new of anything since Warhammer Online came out save for King's Bounty over Gamersgate. It sort of "paid off" , if you will , since literally every interesting PC game I had been eyeing has been on sale in the last 24 hours, it seems like.

Save for RA3, which I told my wife to get me for Christmas. She agreed, provided that she can keep the bear hat item for WAR. :lol
