Here’s hoping everybody had a good Thanksgiving and stuffed themselves silly. And if you’re one of those nut jobs that is going to get up at the crack of dawn tomorrow to get the great deals on Black Friday, good luck (I’m sleeping in, myself). If you’re looking to by one of those dirt-cheap laptops that they’re selling at Wal-Mart, Staples, and Best Buy locally, read up here on the skinny on all of them and which is the best deal (I’d buy one, but don’t have any money nor motivation to get up at 4:00 to get there at 4:45 before they go on sale at 5:00AM). I really wanted to get in on the 200GB Hard Drive they have for roughly $30 bucks at Staples, but again, no money, no motivation to get up that early (but if anybody wants to buy one and contribute to my “I’m dead broke but need a less crappy computer” fund, feel free).

I went to Best Buy this morning at 5 am and it was nuts. I wasn’t in the market for a computer, but even if I were, it sounds like they were all sold out by the time I would have gotten to that section. I got an amazing deal on a 1GB compact flash card. $59.99 at the register with a $20 rebate on top of that! Plus a few cheap DVDs. I did go back to bed though.
At the Wal-Mart around here, one lady actually bit a 15 year old girl to get to something on the shelf! Apparently there was one left, and she really wanted it….makes me glad I slept till 1:30, and I’m flat broke anyway!
