massive black friday deals
black friday 2007 is almost here. yep, we’ll just skip right past thanksgiving, its spiritual meaning and reflective nature, and go straight to the consumer-driven money machine that is the pandemonium of 5am deals on crap. while yours truly won’t be standing in-line or clamoring over helpless children to snag a $300 laptop, i wish all of you the best of luck.
just remember our ybp savings tip posted yesterday regarding how to smartly go about buying your holiday gifts, especially on black friday.
and now for the links:
- best buy doorbusters (has a 12-page flip through feature highlighting each product)
- amazon customer vote ($99 wii, $90 hd tivo; have to check back on the requisite day to see if your name is picked)
- bfads.net (giant listing of deals from home depot, fye, hhgregg, target, kbtoys, etc.)
- walmart ’secret’ deals (5 - 11am only)
for those of you looking for alternatives, my wife and i will be checking out this christmas at the movies during the day to avoid the madness, hopefully. any of our readers want to share their plans for friday?

The consumerist nature of most public holidays is a bit scary. Over here in the UK we dont have the Thanksgiving but we here enough stories about it and how just like Easter and Christmas it has become so commercial.
Shame really because so much of that spending ever comes back into the community that those ad are targeted at.
