Black Friday 2017 Thread

Black Friday 2017​

It's back! My eighth annual Black Friday thread for ChiCitySports. This one is a little earlier this year as an ad has already been released.


The news, ads and store hours are starting to release so this is a good time to get this going! How you do Black Friday is up to you but I'll try and help everyone with the deals as much as I can. Also, be on the lookout for other deals and sales leading up to Black Friday. *cough* Amazon *cough*

Wonderful, a gun shop that offers Black Friday deals. What could go wrong?

 

[Crystallas]

I liked black fridays when;
A) Super influential retailers weren't opening on THURSDAY as the norm. Aside from the normal argument, good luck standing in line and not smelling at least one person with nasty ass turkey farts.
B) Retailers used it as a day to clear out inventory of high quality items for Q4 For the last decade, they started to make waste-grade products just to bring people in on *door busters*. Yeah, we have a major e-waste problem now and still shipping off tons of trash and dumping it in the ocean. If there was ever a single event that perpetuated this problem, it's HOW black friday deals are conducted.

And because of B, I get more stupid calls to fix shit that companies buy, or just my family. Because they thought they were getting a good deal. And it's usually the same story. I bought these 20 doorbusters on black friday, 18 broke, but damn remember when I boughtz dem bluray player for $12 and it still works today?! Oh, and that blanket was $20, it's usually $32.99. Glad I waited in line for 40 minutes for another thing nobody needs or uses.
Also the 4000 mattress stores surrounding every mall, open for business and with an empty parking lot.




Take it from Crys. Eat your damn turkey and drink all that liquor on thursday. If you don't like your family, why the **** are you going to like stampedes of groggy people fighting over super low spec tablets and all of the products that were rejected by SkyMall? Cyber Monday > Black Friday

Don't even have to wait until Cyber Monday, a lot of these deals are online for BlackFriday and can be purchased while sitting on the couch.

With how ridiculous Black Friday has gotten, I don't know why you wouldn't do the Cyber Monday stuff exclusively. Especially since these deals are available before Monday.

 

[Crystallas]

Yeah, that's cool too. Like I said, My real gripe is Black FRIDAY starting on Thursday afternoon and non-deals that are just cheaper versions of desired items (many sold in a manor that items can't be returned.)

 

[brett05]

I am hoping for a power washer this year

 

[Burque]

I keep trying to tell myself to upgrade my TV, but my 60" Sony still just does the trick. I keep asking myself, do I really need the curved 4k thing? Nothing broadcasts in 4k yet right?

Oh no doubt. The Thursday part is annoying. I remember as early as 2009 stores were opening at 4am on Friday. That was a blast.

First big ad posted! Kohl's has been leaked..

 

[AussieBear]

i played black friday once..

went to a store to get jeans.. i noticed they marked up their normals prices to make it seem like a good deal when it was marked down 40% that day.. but in reality it was 5% from what they normally sold them for.. never played black friday again..

Not seen that trick here in the states for BF

Not seen that trick here in the states for BF

it was at sears in da states.. other than silvertabs, the only other jeans i use to buy were some boot cut arizona jeans sears carried... so instead of getting 40% off a 35% mark up i bought silvertabs which were like 20-40% off and about the same price as normal arizona jeans.. i cant remember exactly..

 

[zack54attack]

Kohl's ad has been taken down. Figured that would happen.

From what I remember they had specials on a 4K TV and a Cannon Camera.

At least that was a discount LOL

Most of the time they sell inferior quality products specially ordered for no-return sales under the same brand. It's like shopping at an outlet mall and thinking you're getting a good deal. Adam Crys Ruins Everything.

Costco Black Friday deals usually have the best cannon deals
