I needed an LCD HDTV, and already bought a 32 incher for 280 bucks. I doubt I'm gonna beat that deal even on Black Friday.

There was a thread like this that was mysteriously deleted last night from the B.F. area, if I'm not mistaken. I guess some cranky mod didn't care for it there or something. With all the locked posts in BF, I think most ATOTers are afraid to post anything in it. What is the point of deleting a relevant thread when no one knows why it was deleted? What is the point of a BF area if we can't use it to openly discuss BF?

I might go out and pick up a few marked down DVD's that I'd like, but I'm not fighting the crowds for 'em.

I also might try to catch a larger internal Laptop HD if I can find a good deal on one.

I've been hoping for the last 4 months or so to get a laptop on bf, but the deals aren't nearly as great as I hoped for. Same goes for a portable dvd player.

$229 for a laptop is not cheap enough for you? you want a gold bar to accompany it for that price?

Not a thing. I am one of the few who will be holding down the fort at work.

Nothing. I was going to buy a 1080p LCD, but then I saw the quality of that 24000:1 dynamic contrast ratio Samsung LCD at Best Buy. Holy crap! The quality on that thing is so great compared to everything in the rest of the store. At my store, it was going for $2000 and was 40 inches.

I am going to wait and save up for the quality although I may not get it from Best Buy. :D

LOL
If you'll point out all the locked "relevant" threads, I'll be glad to unlock them.

This is the first time in the last 10 years that I've had a Black Friday off, and I have zero desire to wait in any lines. I just haven't found anything worth squatting over.

I'm with you. I was hoping for a deal on a HD DVD or Blu Ray player, but no such luck.

It usually takes about half an hour to get everyone through checkout. Perhaps you could bribe someone in the checkout line for what's in their shopping cart if you're dumb enough show up at 6:05 :)
