Black Friday Thread of Doom - Ertai - 11-20-2009

So it's black friday time.  Some of us actually brave the stupidity of the mob and go out this day to actually try and find a deal.  Sadly I am one of these people.  Also i have my shit planned out.  For those who want to see the ads i like:

http://www.blackfriday.info

but here's my tentative list right now:

Bestbuy
Klipsch floor standing speaks.  VF35/VF36 50% off
Assasins Creed/stalker $5
Brutal Legend $35 (maybe)
probably a blu ray movie or 2

GameStop
Extra $25 trade in on 360 console (which i bought a new arcade 2 weeks ago when bestbuy matched the $100 gc walmart was giving away.  so net profit of $10 for swapping out consoles.)
Probably the b2g1 free used deal on some games.

Walmart
See what kind of movie selection they got out for cheap

So who else will venture into this madness and what do you hope to get?

Atom, Major_Angry, and I are all going out at the crack of dawn

Hitting Up:
Frys
Gamestop
Tiger Direct
(Others)


Items to Get:

DS Games for gifts

And perhaps anything else that tickles my fancy on impulse....

If you don't have STALKER and are going to Best Buy, definitely pick it up for that five dollar price.

Re: Black Friday Thread of Doom - KorJax - 11-20-2009

Is the $35 Best Buy game deal apply to PC versions too?

I really want to try and get Dragon Age, but they only list the 360 version for $35, and I want the PC version.

Do they have PC game sales at all going on?


Re: Black Friday Thread of Doom - Eschatos - 11-20-2009

Re: Black Friday Thread of Doom - KorJax - 11-21-2009

Allright, decided to pick up dragon age at best buy today anyways seeing as I'm 99% sure the $35 sale doesn't apply to the PC version.  I hope I like the game, never played a bioware RPG before.

Re: Black Friday Thread of Doom - at0m - 11-21-2009

I'm going to be hunting for a pair of cheapish SSDs, possibly a 4GB matched set of RAM, and a Garmin 255WT or 255W (The 255WT for myself so I can give my gf my 255W, or if its super cheap her own 255W).

Re: Black Friday Thread of Doom - Evil Cheese - 11-22-2009

I did the whole Black Friday thing once. You know, wait in a giant line just so you can get in the store right when they sell out of the item you wanted. Turns out the item was shit and you're better off without it, but what a colossal waste of time. Never doing that again.

I agree with surf, between the incredible hassle of shopping on black friday, and black friday becoming more and more a scam than anything else, it's not really worth it anymore to go out unless you plan on waking up to twilight to go camp a store for the 1 big-ticket item you've been wanting all year.
