I'm going to be looking for a new TV so watch out for them for me please! :) Just a normal size (28 or 30 inch maybe), nothing gargantuan. My TV is so old its primetime show is I Love Lucy. I never replace stuff like that until it dies and this is 95% there. It will be so nice to be able to plug things in in the front LOL.
I'm also on the prowl for Christmas presents too. Between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, there's got to be a good one out there.

They also have game deals too, Zoey. Both consoles and games are discounted.
Walmart's most enticing offers this year? Video games.
You'll be able to pick up an Xbox 360 4GB console (with a Kinect accessory and all) for $200 — and you'll get a $50 Walmart gift card to sweeten the deal. If you're more of a Nintendo boy or girl, no worries: There'll be a limited edition blue Wii bundle for $100 and a PlayStation 3 bundle for $200 (no bonus gift cards with those though).
There will also be plenty of discounted games such as "Batman: Arkham City" for $28, "Dance Central 2" for $15 and "Battlefield 3" for $28.

I saw news that Walmart's kicking off their Black Friday deals on Thursday night at 10pm. I don't know if I'd want to shop that late on Thanksgiving day. Would you?
Nah, I want to spend mine relaxing, not gearing up to fight the crowds. I plan to be stuffed as much as the turkey and to roll myself into bed by 10, not shop! :)

I'm getting too used to online shopping to want to stand in stores ever again. I only do it when I absolutely must, like grocery shopping.

They aren't being very generous with how many each store gets, are they? Only 3 copies of the Mad Men DVD at the discounted price? 12 only each of the PS3 and Xbox 360 consoles? I feel sorry for the staff that will have to face the angry customers that never read the small print in the ad about that.

It does appear to be a bit Scrooge-like, yes. From the customer's perspective I would have said it would have been better to offer a lesser discount and give that to more people. Pleasing 30 instead of 3 goes a longer way to building customer loyalty.

Pennywise, Bankrate's listed 10 cheap holiday gift ideas under $10. I don't think you'd get much better than that. But no TV's :)

Amazon.com's having a Black Friday week with new deals every day. You could check that daily for bargains. :) Here's the link.

Also, there was one 32-inch I saw listed as Most Gifted in the TV section. It's down 43% from $349.99 to $199.99. You don't need to wait until Black Friday for that as it's already reduced.
