    Best buy has the new macbook pro retina 13 inch for 1099. Not an amazing deal but considering i was thinking about purchasing this i'll probably hit it up and save a few bills.

    Are television deals doorbuster only, or can you find some good ones online?

    I'm sure you'll find some online. There were some on Amazon last year that Amazon price-matched from other retailers. Newegg and Fry's are two others that haven't released any ads yet -- I know Fry's did their online sale last Black Friday by letting you buy online and picking it up in the store.

    Does anyone know if there are any Black Friday deals for NBA 2K14? I've looked but couldn't find any. I've been able to get it for $25-30 the past few years from Wal-Mart and Best Buy.

    Got a Discover card? Don't want to stand in line? Just go buy the item(s) you want now, then when it goes on sale, call Discover (1-800-DISCOVER), and they will credit you the difference. This is assuming it is the same product, and it was paid entirely with your Discover card. I think Citi is also doing this.

    Basically this is due to the 90 day price guarantee they offer.

    1. Purchase the exact item advertised in BF deals (same model #) before BF (sale date).
    2. Call Discover and ask for price protection claim. They'll send a form in snail mail. (yes, no online application).
    3. Fill the form. You have to send a copy of your receipt, copy of the advertisement with lower price (at the same or different store) (You have to buy BEFORE the sale date, which is BF in this case). File the claim after the sale date. You can file up to 3 claims per claim form. $500 limit per item, $2500 per year.
    4. Wait for the claim to be approved. Takes several weeks.
    5. Enjoy your new item purchased at BF price without staying at lines.

    Don't have a Discover? They're offering $150 back when you spend $750 in the first 3 months. They're also giving 5% back on all online purchases (they have rotating categories every quarter, so this is thru Dec), and will be giving your Transunion FICO score for free on each statement.

    Link if you want to sign up, although you're probably out of time to beat Black Friday.

    There are some good pre black black friday/cyber monday sales for computer parts right now that will be pretty hard to beat come BF and CM at Tiger Direct and Micro Center. I always felt the week before the big weekend has always had great deals on parts.

    I'm on the lookout for good a power supply, RAM, and SSD.

    Any thoughts on obtaining this? Is it a "doorbuster"? Will I have to stand in line early and get a ticket, or will they have enough in stock? Order online for $199? Please advise. Will rep. Thanks.

    These people do it to make the news, and generally get free stuff. They know they could get the same stuff showing up 3 days early or less.

    Sweet. That's what I was going to fight through Target to get. Now the only question is, when exactly will this particular item go on sale? And related to that is, why the hell doesn't Amazon have a price tracking feature on its site? I could have it email - or even automatically purchase - the item once it gets to a certain amount. Why isn't that a thing? That should be a thing.

    I would honestly follow SD forums for any specific thing in particular. Some of these TV's will probably sell out in less than a minute. I'm guessing someone will report the time of when some of these things will go on sale in the BF forum. http://slickdeals.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=41
