    Still about a month away or so... but some deals have already come out and will continue to come out all through this upcoming month of November until the 26th.

    I'm 50/50 on getting a TV this year. If I see a door buster as a TV, I might consider buying it if the specs are up to par.

    Hoping this year Fry's has something that's worth a damn to wake up for... same goes with Best Buy.

    Some sites for BF ads/deals:

    Man I planned on starting this thread after Halloween because I didn't want to be lambasted about it being to early to start the thread. Kudos!

    With good deals popping up on websites too (amazon, buy.com, etc) there's less reason for me to wait in a line at an actual store. Plus with the websites I can usually get free shipping and not pay any taxes. I think I'll stay home this year.

    I am on the lookout for a tv. (32, 37, or 42 inch or so)

    But the deal has to be insane.

    That's what I've been doing the last two years and then theres also Cyber Monday after BF. I'm just going to see if they have anything worth waiting in line for this year, though there's no point getting hopes up.

    I'm shopping for a Blu-Ray player that supports Netflix, Pandora, and will also play Divx files via usb flash drive. Any particular models I should be on the lookout for on Black Friday/Cyber Monday?

    50 or 60 inch Plasma 1080p tv for me. Might order online to save tax and shipping as well. Hoping for a bundle with a good price.

    Frys had that 47in 1080p LG for like 499 or 550 or something. I don't see TV prices being lower than that this year. Not for non-doorbusters anyways. We'll see.

    plasma is still always less expensive then lcd. unless i guess you compared an off brand lcd to a samsung or panasonic plasma. otherwise its cheaper.

    this tv for $1500 seems like a damn good deal. not sure how much you could do better, even next month.

    LG 60" plasma

    I came across this bad boy Panasonic VIERA TC-P50G25 50-Inch for $950 plus tax and free shipping. Tempting but I'm just going to wait for hopefully a better deal. *fingers crossed*
