What do you hope to pick up for yourself or others?
I'm looking to get a new laptop, nothing top of the line, just to browse internet with.

Every year for Thanksgiving we go up to my grandma's cabin in northern Michigan. The shopping plaza there had a Walmart and a Gamestop (and several other stores not relevant to me)
The Gamestop closed, so it is just Walmart. We tend to do Thanksgiving dinner as more of a late lunch (1-2) and so we are all just hanging out in the evening and head down to Walmart. We don't stress about getting there for doorbusters or anything.
I pick up a few deals online. Last year I got a 32 inch HP Omen monitor for a great price from Costco (250?)
I don't have anything eyed right now for this year.

Dell has a decent laptop on sale right now for around 100 bucks. Just ordered one to use as my travel computer. Did Black Friday shopping last year,doubt I do it again for a long time. |

I am not planning on going, however there is a slight chance that I'll end up going.
Like last year, odds are my Aunt will want to go. For us it's a 60 mile Drive to a city with actual stores. I'll most likely go along, however I have no plan to actually shop. I'm almost broke for the month already. I'll just go along for something to do.

Been wanting to buy an X-Box One S for a while. Might just wait until Black Friday.

Myself? I'm getting Disgaea 5 for Switch Thanksgiving night for $20 at Best Buy. Same with Xenoverse 2.
I'm also getting camera accessories Black Friday at the local camera shop for my brother.

My cousin drives me out and about every year after Thanksgiving dinner. A tradition started when the 49ers were getting killed by the Seahawks a few years back so we needed something else to do. Right now I don't have any plans, but if there's a discounted Nintendo Switch I may be tempted. Last year I had no plans and ended up with a new 50-something inch 4K TV.  |

In college, a friend and I decided that after our respected family dinners, we'd go to a hockey game and THEN stay up all night to be the runners for some Black Friday shoppers, who had a full route planned out. We hit 8-10 stores starting at 3:00 AM. He was totally beat by 11:00 AM!
Never again.
...'til the next time.

Would bestbuy be the best place to get a new laptop? I'm iffy about buying something like that online, i'd prefer to see it in person before buying

My iPad Mini has gone to Apple heaven (it works, but every single app crashes after about a minute), so I need a new tablet. Might try Samsung this time.

I plan on doing all my shopping online or maybe the day after Black Friday at night. I plan on buying a lot this year. I’m looking into the PS4 Slim for $199 but waiting it out to see if there will be any good PS4 Pro deals. Also, plan on buying a bunch of games for cheap, and maybe a few movies at Best Buy for cheap on Blu-Ray. I’ll likely be getting the iPad 9.7 on sale too. I have a Best Buy Credit Card so I’ll likely do the 6 month financing on that so I don’t have to pay for all of it at once since I’ll be spending quite a bit on other stuff most likely. I hope to not spend any more than $600 total though.

I'd go there before Best Buy One nasty trick Best Buy does is have Best Buy specific SKUs for laptops that are exceptions to the manufacturers warranties. I bought an ASUS laptop there years back and that model was not protected by ASUS's warranties - you had to buy the Geek Squad protection. |

I haven't done any Black Friday shopping for the past 10 years or so; however, this year, I picked up this TV, which, for some reason, went on sale today. I'm also looking to get a Fitbit Charge 2 to continue my weight loss journey. (I'm down 50lbs so far) If I didn't have baby expenses, I'd pretty much just order that TV now and ask for forgiveness from my wife later. |

If I had the money, I'd want to get that one TV from Best Buy, the 50" 4K Ultra HD with Roku that's $180.
As it is, I kinda want to go get one of those free Xbox 360s from GameStop.

I have committed to buying my wife an electric stand mixer. Not sure if I'll try best buy or costco, but feel like this week would be the best time to buy it.

I remember years ago when I was having problems with my iPod, took it to the Geek Squad and the first thing the girl ask me was "is there a battery in it?" |

I'm at Best Buy, and let me tell you, it almost looked like the Red Sea parted when they announced there were no more tickets for the $179 32 inch Sharp TV.
