I'm not.

They could be selling 50" plasma TVs for $5.00 a pop and it still wouldn't be reason enough for me to deal with that shit. I'd rather sleep in.

I hear you but when it comes to saving some cash I can't complain. Plus we'll be home early and just crash out.

Considering I get off work at midnight, it wouldn't be so bad for me to just stay up, but the only thing I want from tomorrow shouldn't sell out by the time I wake up and if it does, oh, well.

We never have, and we weren't going to, but I looked at bestbuy.com and they have a $200 desktop tomorrow morning. I can't pass that up. My little boy needs a new computer and that's probably the best deal I'll be able to find. Besides, we just bought a home theater system last night, and it's $110 cheaper tomorrow, so we need to get our money back on that.

Should be fun. :rolleyes

Too bad the Dell deal isn't on for $399 anymore, it was a heck of a deal - Vostro 1000.

I was going to get that e-machines pc and printer for 199 for my mother but I went to the BB at 410 and San Pedro and there was already like 100 plus people out there at like freaking 930 so I was like well I guess the PC will just have to wait another year

I was pissed ...let me know if there is another BB with better odds

Im still going to Pennys at 4am

Upon further reflection, and another helping of turkey/pie/stuffing, we've decided that it would indeed be quite foolish, not to mention extremely cold, to be anywhere at 5 am other than a warm, comfy bed. I am holding out hope that with the economy "tanking" like they are predicting, that the deals will be forthcoming all the way up to Christmas eve. And if not, then I don't really need it anyway.

The news showed all those people at Best Buy with their tents set up. That's just not for me. :lol

The one on the news looked like the Best Buy at the Rim, but I could be wrong. There were already about 50 people at least out there. Camping at the Rim. Sounds wrong on many different levels. :lol

HAHA. Seriously! And I'll hear all about it tomorrow afternoon, my sister works at Old Navy and will be there bright and early in the morning. IPOD shuffles to every 5 people in line.

Seriously? It may be worth a trip just for that! My 11 year old wants an Ipod, and free is awesome.

And I believe if you sign up for an old navy card you'll get one no matter what. Go in between 12:30 and 4:30 find a girl with bright red hair and ask her about it. She'll get 3 bucks for you getting one, that's my sister.

Yeah, go for it! When you sign up you get something like 20% your whole purchase and with the card 10% off at Banana Republic and the Gap (because of the sister company thing). They send coupons all the time too. I buy all my work clothes there now that I have it.

I saw it on woai news at 9. I am almost positive it was the one at the Rim, but either way, I'm sure they are all pretty crowded. It tells you online the minimum amount of items per store, and it's only like 15 of each. Yes, that's the minimum, but they probably won't have much over that. So a lot of those people waiting already probably won't get what they came for. And it's too damn cold for "maybe."

So I want to hear from the ones that went out to get "a specially priced item" only to find out its magically "sold out".

I just got a call from my mom, her and my sister got everything they wanted, including the really cheap electronics. They are tired though and asked if I could keep my nephews a few hours longer while they take a nap :lol Even if I kept them all day its better than standing in line for hours like they did in the freezing cold.

Fry's has a 32" LCD HDTV for $377. That's a good deal.

Got everything we needed...went to Target like at 6am....not too bad...was in and out...they had all registers open...came back and chilled out...went to Best Buy at around 10...still plenty of stuff...not as much people as I expected...got a 2gb Sandisk mp3 player for $35...I actually thought they were gonna be out...they had a HUGE box full of them...not bad at all...seems like everyone slept in...even the line to pay at BB was extremely short...

I just braved out for the first time today and I gotta say there wasn't much going on. I know that a lot of the early bird sales were done by 1pm when I left but stuff looked pretty normal still, I thought there might still be more people out there for the sales that are all weekend.

Things didn't look all that bad at Radio Shack (obviously) and they had boxes of what I wanted at 9:45 a.m.

Also went to CompUSA for a new backpack (necessity, not want) and it just seemed like a Sunday.

went JC Pennys pretty much line free out at North Star although right around 4am it started to pick up some. Got in stayed for about 4 hours didnt get grouchy like I usually would have shopped for a lot of gifts for the kidos. Lots of clothes and outfits and good shit at that. So yeah I also picked up some stacys for me, a leather jacket for the misses and all came out to about 450. All my shopping is pretty much done for with the exception of our parents. So too me it was worth it. I am actually glad I didnt go to best buy however gay that sounds

I waited until the afternoon and still got everything I wanted and the stores were not that crowded at all. I think retail stores are in for a bad season.

I think you are right.

I work in Rolling Oaks mall and it seemed less busy yesterday than it was this time last year.
