Got some deals - and had fun despite the hassles
#13 in line at Best Buy - started at 5pm on Thanksgiving. Dressed very well and brought a tent that sets up in 2 minutes.
Got 5 laptops from $229 up
Got a desktop with flat screen and printer for $198
Got a dozen 100-disc DVD-R sets at $6.99 each
Got 50 Mini-DV tapes, 2-packs for $3.99
Got a Nikon D40 with extra 70-200mm zoom
Got 4 x 2Gb of Ram for $55 each
Got 9 x 4Gb thumb drives for $15 each
A bunch of other stuff...warranties alone totaled about $1,500
Great deal - got 4 x 320 Gb internal SATA drives (1.2 Terabytes on the video Mac now) for $60 each.
Another great one - 4 x 500 Gb external 'MyBook' drives at $100 each
Got more than I needed, but then 2 laptops at work took a dump within a few days of shopping, and I couldn't have afforded to replace them nearly as well without picking up the Black Friday deals.
Had a good time in line with my good friend's son and his girlfriend; smart shoppers and great young people.
The wife did a midnight run somewhere, then a 5am and 6am deal.
I checked out and went to breakfast about 10, then to work till about 3:30, then work at home for ninety minutes before crashing. Glad that it is over.
Regards,
Keith
