- pumacub, on 10/12/2007, -0/+24The deals are pretty good, I think some people appreciate the heads-up.
Besides, it's filed under "tech deals", which means you've officially won this post's "whine like a bitch" award. - Muyoso, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20Last BF I got a laptop for 378 and it has been better than I could possibly have imagined. Beware of people with isolated bad experiences that claim to be the norm.
- jackhole, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19Not me! I whittle my computer components out of driftwood.
- tuxidomasx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11as opposed to spyware heaven...?
- rohcky, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Oh Noes! 4 dead pixels!!!! It's the end of the world! /sarcasm
Besides, you could've gotten a decent 19in LCD monitor for that amount anytime of the year. Looks like you're the "noob" who got ripped off on BF. - Bara, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Getting a little angry there buddy... it's alright, I understand, the internet hurts.
- Nougat, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11Seriously, you can read PDFs on anything - Windows, Mac, Linux. Somebody name some more.
- Bara, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11Just takes me back to the front page...
Either way, you can find all the information here:

It's considered the day in which retailers transition from the red (lose) to the black(profit) for the year.
- mbthompson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Haha, yeah I guess you're right. Black Friday is the day after we celebrate our Thanksgiving (always the 4th Thursday in November) when all of the stores put their items on sale and people bum rush the front doors.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Looks like they are finally charging the right price for Battlefield 2142: $25.
- Philbert, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6A couple of years ago I worked at BB during Black Friday That time our store opened at 6am but the employees had to be there at 4. When I arrived there was already a line going down to the end of the store and around the corner and I understand one fight had already broken out. This was in a higher class neighborhood.

To inform you, my laptop has never visited myspace. It has an 8 hour battery life, is used for surfing the internet and word processing. Anyone buying a laptop for anything more than that is wasting their money. I guess I am a "noob" unless I buy a 20 pound laptop which still has a crappy video card, a 2 hour battery life, and a bottom that could fry an egg. You are obviously retarded, but probably young, so its ok for a while. When you grow up, maybe you will realize that you cannot judge people by the products they choose to buy.
BTW, I have a desktop at home which does all of my intensive work, as well as several Media Center PC's. Throwing this out there in case you choose to respond. - OsiVert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@wbreim
Brick stores and online stores sell LCD's that were manufactured at the same place, so dead pixels is just bad luck or the brand. But saying that, I have had no-name lcd's with no dead pixels and well known LCD's with many dead pixels. Just research before you buy to see if other people have the same problem. And since when is a Core Solo, Windows MCE a bad laptop? I would only be worried if it were a Cyrix laptop. - danglerman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4xutopia:
you're hilarious - ngmcs8203, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Usually... it really depends on your location.
- LilGator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3If it's anything like my Westy 32'' I picked up over Labor Day weekend ... it's one awesome TV. I paid ~$700 which was a steal back then...
- UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2thanks! scary though.
- deetank, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Westinghouse 32" LCD HDTV for $480 is looking pretty good.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Westinghouse 22" widescreen monitor for $199 ($300 off) looks like the best deal there.
- UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4What time is it good to arrive at a best buy if the doors open at 5AM. 4 oclock?
- afex, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5goat i hope you aren't an engineer or a CS major because PDF's are all you'll see for spec sheets/tech drawings/schematics when you get a job...
- rockorager, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2How about the 51" plasma for 1700? Or the 50" (I can only guess CRT projection) tv for 800? Granted, post-christmas will have the same prices...but right now those are great deals
- bushawa, on 10/12/2007, -1/+229 pages of nothing I want. Maybe next year!
- priceless721, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i work for gamestop/eb games the link to our ad sucks balls only shows nintendo stuff and like 2.5 cut up and cropped pages i was bummed these should get to store soon i want them so bad

- Himself, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yay meaningful profanity? fabulous fecklessness?
- cgmason, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2If you're a savvy internet shopper, you should be able to get a lot of those prices already - the Canon SD600 was going for like $210 at amazon the other day. No way are these prices worth getting to Best Buy at 4am on a Sat for.
- ateoto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I work at a newspaper and they sent around a paper for us to sign reminding us of the Confidential Information Policy in effect, I forgot about "Black Friday" it all makes sense now. :)
- jlawson1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1sony dvd camcorder is not really a deal, sony website has it for that price right now????
- JoeB4ever, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I work at best buy. And usually the people that get the notebook or desktop get in line around 6pm thanksgiving day.
But I'm actually quite impressed with this years ad. A lot of home theater deals.
Last years ad sucked. - JoeB4ever, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For that price it can't be beat.
Buy it, you'll be happy - NewPunk, on 10/12/2007, -9/+9Black Friday...? Must be an American thing. Up here in Canada we don't have "Black Friday" sales... unfortunately.
- jstem1994, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That 17" LCD for $89 looked interesting. Couldn't quite get the brand, MACE? Any thoughts? My 17" & 21" CRT's are getting long in the tooth.... (I mostly do Photoshop work)
- jstem1994, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@joe: Thanx. Tried Google'ing MAG LCD and MACE LCD. MAG's logo matched up. MACE gave me the usual pepper spray, and security camera monitors actually.
So, MAG LCD's any good? - 9h0s7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i've got a MAG 15". its ok, just make sure to check the max resolution, my was only 1024x768
- JoeB4ever, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I believe it's a Mag monitor
- ufoman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Looks like the site has hotlinking on. So linking to the PDF file just sends you to the front page.
- DucksofAnaheim, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Ah...but I know about "boxing day" ;)

- IceBoxCake, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Not all that good.
- uritbang, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0boo... ***** meaningless consumerism!!
- ufoman, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Looks like the link has been fixed now.
http://download.bfads.net/BFAds-BestBuy.pdf - mbthompson, on 10/12/2007, -10/+3None of the links work, no digg and lame.
- ufoman, on 10/12/2007, -7/+0I went to the adscan page and I don't see a high-resolution colord Best Buy adscans the site claims to have. Just the old b&w one.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1Thanks for the link to spyware hell
- Johnagain, on 10/12/2007, -16/+4What does goat boy have against PDF? Can't we all just get along??? ;-)
