After they bitched and moaned and sent threatening we’ll-sic-our-lawyers-on-you-if-you-post-our-Black-Friday-ad-on-your-site letters, Walmart went ahead and revealed BF deals they are going to be having on several items to the news network CNN. This is after they said nothing would be leaked until November 24. Go figure.
Some of the deals: doorbuster deals offered between 5 a.m. and 10 a.m. including a 50-inch Samsung plasma HDTV ($798), Magnavox Blu-ray player ($128), Xbox 360 ($199) sold with free Guitar Hero III Legends of Rock game and wireless guitar, HP Pavilion desktop computer ($398) and a UniFlame gas grill ($175). These are deals? I’ll never understand why any human being needs a TV larger than 20″. The picture is still the same. But if you have $798.00 lying around and want to blow it on a 50-inch TV, be my guest.
The one that worries me is the GE microwave for $25.00. My first question is: how big is it? Second question, how long will it last?
The article went on to state that due to the poor economy, last week Walmart stated they would offer more discounts on thousands of products over the next seven weeks. Well, I shop at Wally World every week and I have yet to see any lower prices on anything.
Right now the two main places on my BF list are Sears and Wally World–depending on what Wally has to offer, of course. I’m looking for a new DVD/VHS player and right now Sears is the only one offering one for $49.99. Unless Wally comes out with one also (hopefully lower priced), I’m going to have to go with Sears.
