    http://blackfriday.info has everything.

    It even allows you to create an account and make a shopping list. It is, by far, the best black friday site.

    TSI I know about the Black Friday sites.. We were looking for specific deals from vendors that are too good to pass up.

    For instance... A 16gb USB Flash drive at Target for $5.00 (this is made up).

    mmmmKKKKK!!!

    Thanks for the offering though.

    the site is good, but am I the only one that is somewhat dismayed with this year's deals?

    Nope.

    I haven't found anything worth jumping on, and I'm looking to spend some of my first Guvmint paycheck

    There are "regular" deals on the egg more exciting than anything I've seen so far

    Looking for:

    Big hard drive (1.5TB on egg for $97 which I'm probably buying)
    Possibly 24"+ monitor (if one is a great deal)
    Possible 4.3" GPS unit (I don't know much about them so hard to see deals or not)
    Maybe...5850/5870 or 5770 x 2
    Q9650 @ 4.68 24/7 -- EVGA GTX 275 @ 685/1624/1200 (folding) -- Gigabyte EP45-UD3P -- 8GB G. Skill Pi Black -- Swiftech Apogee GTZ -- 60GB OCZ Vertex (OS: Win 7 7077 x64) -- OCZ GameXstream -- Woodmaster 1.0

    Yeah, maybe on Black Friday they actually will have ATI"s 5xxx series at MSRP

    I want one of those Seagate 1.5tbs but the recent reviews on the egg (despite their obvious limitations) seem to indicate a relatively high failure rate.

    If you have the option, MC has the retail version for only $99 before tax. Its warranty is 5 yrs instead of 3.

    I'm looking for a pair of decent 1TB drives for my Christmas list. The cheap 1.5TB drives, like Bild said, seem to have reliability issues. If the Samsung F3s go on sale that's what I'm after.

    Just wondering if any of you Americans would be willing to help a Canadian out, if, say, there's a 4890 for $100 black Friday deal.

    You can get Seagate 1tb retail drives for $79 @ BB. Personally I am looking out for maybe and i5 or AM3 deal. HAF 932 is another thing I would not mind having.

    looking forward to seeing their deals over the next couple days, but I dont want any of those games

    I would like to see Civ4 for $5 or $10-20 with the expansion packs
    COD4 MW for $15-20
    I want games, but for cheap. For that, Steam is king

    I've been mostly unimpressed.

    Sears has a front-load washer and dryer set for $500... usually about $1k for the same.

    Best buy has a deal for a fridge, stove, and dishwasher for $1400...

    otherwise, nothing much. Some newegg stuff is decent, but not wonderful.

    Not too impressed with the listings either, but that 10% cashback looks great when I'm going to be ordering my new build tomorrow.
