    Yeah they sold out of Uncharted 3 and then restocked later in the day. I ended up getting Uncharted 3 for me at $30, all four seasons of Mad Men in Blu Ray for my brother for $8.99 a pop, and the new X-Men and Gaga CD for my sis for $10 and $5. A good start for xmas.

    Last I checked Meyerland and the Galleria location had them in stock. You can order it online and do in store pickup.

    McAfee Anit-Virus for 3 computers at Staples - Free after mail in rebate. I payed $70 total but the rebate is for 65$ so you've got to pay a little tax, but a darn good deal.

    Asus U56E-XR1 - 15.6" i3-2310M, 4GB, 640GB - $550 at Fry's. I don't know if it was on sale but it was a good deal.

    Odd. Oh well, went to the Galleria today and went to their RadioShack, they were sold out but they shipped one to my house for free anyways. Thanks, wouldn't have known they were on sale otherwise. :)

    Btw, footlocker.com is running a 15% off on all orders, no minimum purchase required!!

    i dug the movie a lot, If you like Cera, its a given u should get it. Its different, if you are geek with pop culture and video games (retro or current), it's worth it.

    Update - Radioshack cancelled my order about 20 minutes ago. I placed it earlier today, right before I posted the deal and they just cancelled it saying they were out of stock.

    Anyway - Found the same deal on Newegg, they only have the Red one left in stock but that doesn't really matter to me.

    Red PS3 Dual Shock Controller
    Price: 34.99
    Shipping: Free 2 Day
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16879261322

    After getting ****ed out of a PS3 controller and UH tickets, 3rd time better be the charm.

    This black friday has been more peaceful than previous years. No deaths of trampled store employees, this year. There was a dead body found in a water fountain, but it is uncertain how he died.

    One guy got shot in a robbery attempt, but he will survive.

    Here come the r****ded occurrences.

    At Wally world, a 36-38 yr old Mexican lady peppered sprayed 10 people for Xbox games or an Xbox 360. You can see a teen being escorted, after being hit with spray.

    Really? Isn't 38, a little old, to be fighting for video games? She should have grown out of it by 12. LOL

    There was another wally world incident, but this one was in Livingston(NE of Houston for the yankees).

    A drunk at Walmart started a fight with another lady, after hitting carts. Judging from the mugshot, she didn't do too well.

    Amazon's Black Friday sales have been pretty good so far ... and you didn't have to drive anyhere - just click fast enough. :grin:

    The only one I was pissed I missed out on was the 4GB XBox 360 + Kinect + $50 Credit for $199. It was supposed to be up for buying around 11am, but it disappeared from the "upcoming deals" list. Then it reappeared mysteriously at around 2 or 3pm when, of course, I wasn't looking. Bah.

    A lot of these deals I see posted in this thread were also on Amazon, but I'm not sure if the prices were comparable or not. Like you guys aren't posting any specs on the laptops, but they've had similar laptops on Amazon. They've had tablets like the Acer Iconia, Toshiba Thrive, etc. Check it out. The deals run all day long.

    So far all I've bought are Madden 2012 for $28 and a leather jacket for $83 (which really wasn't a BF Lightning Deal, I guess, as you can still get it, I think). I was tempted to buy other stuff that I probably didn't need, but resisted... whew... so far, anyway. :)

    Avira's anti-virus is better and is always free, and I think there are probably better deals on laptops than that i3.

    Without spending too much time in searching which one is better spec-wise, here are some i5's that are similar/better in price, plus no tax, and free shipping. I'm sure there are others - Amazon has had BF specials with a couple that were pretty good deals, I think.

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1335537662&pf_rd_i=384082011 (I don't think this is even a BF deal - not sure)
