Looking for a P&S digital camera for my parents' Christmas gift. Haven't seen anything yet, but I'll have to keep looking.

I need nothing but would like a "good" deal on a new monitor.

You're insane if you're actually going out shopping on Black Friday. Stick to the online sales.

My wife, my bro-in-law, my sis-in-law and I are all going to upgrade our iPhone 3g's to 4's at AT&T <crosses fingers>.

My nephew gets my bro-in-law's old phone in the bargain.

The only deal I want is to sleep in. I really don't care if I get anything for Christmas. I think this year I will just donate to charities.

Want a 2TB hard drive, but don't want a Seagate or an external, so nothing. Waiting to find a Samsung or WD internal 2GB for $60 or so, should get one by Christmas even if not on Black Friday.

I was looking for a few things but sadly there don't appear to be any great deals this year, so I'm gonna sit it out...

I think the "black friday" phenomenon has gotten to the point where the stores have everyone convinced that there are great deals to be had, so they don't offer really great deals anymore, people will come out anyway.

I'll check to see if there are any great deals on Blu-rays, though I spent so much (an insane amount!) on the B&N Criterion sale, I should probably just hold off. :hmm:

nada. I almost NEVER do Black Friday shopping.

I H-A-T-E crowds, and don't deal with them very well...or politely.

I embarrass my wife at the mall at x-mas time.

"MOVE! GTF outta the way." "If you assholes want to hold a fucking convention, rent a gawd-dammed hall!"
I have the "stiff-arm" down to an art...I can get through a crowd. :p

I might look at a few sites, but doubt I'll get anything. Spent too much money for no reason recently.

Cheap ssd would be nice. Surprising how many non tech geeks visit Anandtech forums. Figured there would be more tech talk?

I almost bought that $300 40" 1080P TV but didn't because I don't actually need it.

gracias...it's an art. :p

I'm waiting (impatiently) for the Amazon gift cards I'm getting for all my Starpoints.
THEN I'll do some computer shopping.

(for the first time, I'm considering an AMD processor) <ground shakes>

Value City Furniture is actually making me consider venturing out. They've got a 4-drawer chest for $40. (Allegedly $170 pre-sale.)

(How crazy should I expect a furniture store be at 6am on Black Friday?)
