What did everybody buy for Black Friday 2014?
romevi:
They started the Thanksgiving openings either last year or the year before. I was appalled. I went to a handful of Black Fridays in my entire life and can count on one hand as well the amount of things I've purchased as a result.
But when they announced the whole Thanksgiving thing I was shocked and vowed not to go. Nevertheless, I did go to one store the night of last year because the wife wanted to go since some of the in-laws were going, and we went checking for a few baby items.
This is the first year in 5 years we haven't gone out at all.
I look forward to Cyber Monday, but even then I'm not too excited. I've learned over the years that some of the best deals are spontaneous, and I'm a very picky buyer anyway so the things I want are rarely on sale.
That, and the wife had started couponing this year (not "extreme") and that saves us tons of money and has helped her to realize that the Black Friday deals really aren't that great deals as they advertise.

I've been looking at this website lately and they stay really current on the latest deal. Cheap ass gamer is good, but this seems like the best site for deals that I've found:

Wow, you braved the supermarket? Been watching the footage on TV. Complete mayhem.
It makes me laugh how Black Friday suddenly appeared in Europe. Most people don't even know the significance. Lol. I actually went to a supermarket here in france - we had 30% off everything in the wine aisle. All very civilized. Lol. Spent around 160 euro on wine before the discount.
