Don't know if this counts (not sure I got the black friday idea right, first time I heard of it) or if it's that a good deal anyway, but Neu-Castle 1518 1Y 1800kV for 158$ instead of 225$ :)

I didn't score any actual black friday deals but did pick up the castle 1717 and the new star trek on blue ray for $20 over the last few days.
As for Best Buy, they are like any other store. You have to use price comparison and common sense when shopping. And for the record, Walmart has also done their part in driving local shops out of business.
Extended warranties and service contracts are not always bad. I had an RCA dlp tv that I purchased 4 yr warranty because reviews prior to buying seemed to indicate higher failure rate. It died in the 4th yr and I got a store credit for the entire intial cost ($1860). I was able to get a new samsung 50" 1080p plasma with 5 yr warranty for the $1860. This was from PCRichards not Best Buy btw.

6" bench grinder
14" metal cut off saw
new vice
21 gallon compressor
drill press vice
ac/dc voltmeter
air tools
specialty pliers
oxyacetylene tanks/ welding kit
13hp gas engine
2 12v dc electric motors
heat gun
toolbox

all for around $350.
God I love the inside track club.... discounts and getting in an hour early to the sales...
