I was hoping to have a job by now, so that I could have really splurged on BF.

There was a line at BB at 6 pm the night before, so I passed on their laptop. I got up at 5:30 and wheeled over to Office Depot and their line had built up already, so no lappy there.

So, I went home and dived in just in time to get Office Depot's online only laptop for $371 shipped.

Didn't feel like lining up at all this year for BF. So I decided to just head over to the stores at around 10am to try my luck; and to my surprise I got almost everything I wanted!

Walmart:
•8" Portable DVD player - $49
Office Depot:
•4gb mspro duo memory card - $14.99
Best Buy:
•Smallville Season 1 - $14.99
•Family Guy Season 5 - $14.99
•Kung Fu Panda Blu-ray - $16.99 (surprised when I found this, seems like somone was trying to hide it)
Target:
•Dead Space - $30

The only thing I missed out on was the Radioshack sale for the DS3 controllers for $30. I know I could've priced matched it at Walmart, but I totally forgot at the time >.< Oh well, overall good BF day for me.

I managed to get a 10 megapixel camera, 4gb SDHC card, camera case, Xbox 360 wired guitar, and the sims 2 deluxe for pc for $100. I think that's a pretty good day, in my opinion.

Amazon's deals are great, but the way they kept dropping prices on some items left me a little ticked. The Perfect shot on Friday was $7.95 on Friday, then $4.95 on Saturday? They also did it with some games, too. I thought the whole point of these deals is to reward the people who stay up and get to the deals first!

Can't complain too much, though. Here's what I got:

Best Buy
DDR Supernova with mat (PS2): $15

Amazon
Perfect Shot (Wii): $8
Boom Blox (wii): $20
Mercury Meltdown Revolution (Wii): $10
Lego Star Wars Complete Saga (Wii): $15 (not a BF deal)
Sonic Unleashed (Wii): $30 (a Saturday deal)
Rune Factory 2 (DS): $15 (includes squirrelish thingy plush XD)
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness (DS): $10
PS2 Controller: $8

Several of those will be going out as presents.

I got the World of Warcraft Battlechest from Circuit City for 15 bucks......oh wait, no I didn't, they had already sold out by the time I got there  Plus all the CCs around where my brother lives didn't have them either. But the one close to where my sister lives had some......oh no, wait a second, they only had a couple and both her and her husband had apparently been wanting the BC expansion and will therefore keep it for themselves   So I got nothing......a big fat wad of nothingness ...happy thanksgiving...

I also bought a 1TB harddrive from tigerdirect for $65 after live.com cashback. I spent way too much but the deals were too good to pass up, especially since I didn't have to wait in the cold and Amazon doesn't charge tax.
