damn. very nice job. here's a tidbit that wikipedia doesn't know... the term "black friday" is used because its known as the day businesses try to get out or the red (financially negative) and into the black (financially stable).

My brother and I are buying a couple games today I think. Thanks for the reminder lol, I would've missed it.

[Frag Man]

I hate Black Friday. Because every time I go to get something on sale, it's gone.

[ZEROATH]

My friend went to Wal-Mart and went to the electronics section and people were fighting over the games so good luck trying to get them!

[AmercanPsycho]

Lol, I was one of five people in my town to buy Far Cry 2. I have plenty of time.

I'm going to make 2 big purchases today:

Apple iPod Touch
Retail: $229.00
Sale: 208.00

One of the following TV's, I haven't decided which one yet, any suggestions are appreciated:

Sharp - 32" Class 720p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV - $499.99
Samsung - 32" Class 720p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV - $499.99

Sony - BRAVIA 32" 720p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV - $499.99

Toshiba - 32" LCD HDTV - $499.99

Based on online reviews, I'm leaning towards either the Sharp or the Sony. I will save anywhere from $50-$230 on any one of those TV's. I plan on just using it for cable TV and high definition xbox gaming and netflix movies via xbox also.

And sargeant, Smallville is gay :D

[SargeantSarcasm]

DO NOT buy the ipod. A new one'll come out in January...hell probably even before then. Plus, that isn't a real deal, if you go to macconnection.com they usually have that deal all year round.

As for the TVs, Bravia is what I was considering getting last year, but I went for a smaller, higher definition one

[Skill Caster]

I got some good deals today, but holy crap...the people are insane. At one of the stores two mothers got into a fist fight (rolling on the floor) over a Wii console. It's a game system, people o_o...

So, not to get off-topic, but I didn't suspect you'd like weedz. I fuckin love that show, but have only seen so few an episode...

Anyways, family is out of town for me, and I'm broke as fuck. Count it as 1 Black Friday completely wasted =/
