I sadly didn't get anything......

All I want, is to invisibleSHIELD (Zagg.com) to drop, significantly so I can pick up a new iTouch Full Body Cover, and for eBay to drop their prices on a iPod Touch 2nd Gen Glass Digitizer, and I'll be happy.

I do know a friend who got to Staples quite late, and scored a nice laptop for about $300.....

I wasn't going to stand in line all night to try and get the great deals. I did go to walmart and target around 10am. Target was out of all the specials on tvs that I was interested in. So I went over to walmart. The cheapest ones were gone and they said people stood there all night with them in there cart till 5am to get the special.

I did end up getting a blueray player for $78(really didn't need it but I guess now the playstation can actually be used for games), and a sony bravia 32" $378(not nearly as cheap as the early bird specials but a better tv.

I scored a NIB SC10 kit delivered for 159.99 on FleaBay ! ! ! ! !

My Xmas present to myself, I have no children and a very small family so I can spoil myself a bit.

I have appreciate honesty !

HAHAHA

I picked up a Browning BDM 9mm and a SW 38spl for about 500 bucks... Not bad, as the SW must be worth at least 600 bucks, it is an early model 15 nickel in great shape. Not sure why I bought ANOTHER 9mm (must have 12 now).

Also bought a 1717 from CC, my xmas gift to me! Sent the wife out to get me a metal chop saw... Thats her gift to me, I get to buy her a good camera.

Cold saw? Or an abrasive chop saw?

Closest I got to the crummy mall was dropping my daughter off for work this afternoon - I absolutely despise going to the mall areas at this time of year. Cant stand the traffic, or the people and their attitudes.
How many people use Black Friday to buy x-mas gifts for their family, as opposed to buying things for themselves.

Oh, and still on my soap box here....wont by anything from BestBuy, no matter what the price.

I woke up with a hangover around 9:30 house full of retards who dont pay rent and eat me out of house and home for 3 days. Why no school ? So I drive to Walmart to check out that 50" $500 LDC TV. I saw the parking lot full of scum that should be in the welfare line and went home and cracked a hair of the dog. Id rather pay and extra $200 than stand inline for an hour with that crap

Could not have said it better myself.

Std 14" abrasive saw, nothing special. Most likely get the dewalt 200 buck model as it has a cast base and looks slighly better built than the other crap I have seen. Seems like the 50 dollar difference is worth it?! I have had good success with dewalt and milwaukee, figure most of the tolls will last a lifetime as much as I use them.

Actually my first Black Friday order was a gift for someone else.

What's wrong with Best Buy?

Also, to add to my list, I just helped my dad pick out a new HDTV and BluRay player. Picked up a Samsung LN52B750 (52" 1080P 240hz 2ms LCD) and a Samsung P3600 (Netflix Streaming Capable).

To me, they expemplify all that is wrong with US corporate america. They bought out our best local HI FI shops that had been around forever (Magnolia Hi FI) then shut down most of them. So now insted of being able to go talk to someone that really knew thier stuff, you get a pimple faced 18 year old who has no idea what a tube amp is.
Then they burned me when HD got the axe. I had two brand new unopened HD movies, and I tried to take them back - but they would only let me exchange them for other HD movies.....

That ain't the worst of it. There was a huge scandal a few years back where they were playing a bait-and-switch with the in-store kiosks showing higher prices than the internet site, even though they looked identical. And they've been known to willfully ignore consumer issues after the sale.

Best Buy will never get my business either....
