Black Friday was almost a total bust as far as electronics/computers.

I saw a few half decent TV deals, the rest was crap.

I did buy a few formal coats/suits, and I got a chair for half-off at Staples. Eh.

Today wasn't any better. There just were no real "DEALS".

I got a pair of running shoes for $25, normally $40 or so.

Agree/disagree?
 
It was pretty good for me. I got a pair of Ecco dress shoes for work for $82 (normally over $140). I also picked up a $600 guitar for $445.
 
bought the old lady a nice CK coat that we been eyeing for a few weeks. went from $325 to $170. was ready to pay, then cashier knocked another 35% off. got it for $110. im cool with it.
 
Two of the pretty good deals I found: Garmin 1450LMT for $129 at Target, and a Panasoni BD85K blu-ray player for $125.
 
i tried to notice both black friday and cyber monday: neither had anything of value. e.g. $30 for a 16Gb flash drive. 2 years ago i got the same thing for $15.
 
Dropped about 400 dollars at Men's Wearhouse, but doubled up on everything because of their BOGO sale. So, nearly 800 dollars worth of stuff.
 
Lol. The LG BLu ray player I bought went down another 3 dollars after cyber monday. It wasn't one of the featured deals anyway. I picked up a few games I wanted from steam plus a few more to give as gifts, all for pretty good prices. I felt like the best deals were definitely the steam games.
