What bargains are you looking to pick-up, at what price, and where?

I'm debating between a TomTom ONE 140 for $59.99 at NewEgg.com (with 10% Bing Cashback) and a TomTom ONE 125SE from WalMart for $59.00 (but only if they offer the deal online - and with 15% Bing Cashback).

I'll probably check out a few things on Cyber Monday too, but that'll be the extent of my Black Friday; heading up to Bowling Green early to tailgate, watch BG beat Toledo (that's for you, Fab), and hopefully see Freddie Barnes set the NCAA single-season record for receptions. ;)

This should help you in terms of what's available where and for how much as far as the GPS units go:

For the cyber Monday, do a lot of these stores offer their best deals on Monday, or is it just as good tomorrow?

Wal Mart and Best Buy are the 2 worst places to do Black Friday shopping if you aren't planning on getting there at noon on Thurs

Well, I'm not above fighting for something if I have to. I'm leaving in about 40 minutes to wait in line.

Isn't Google offering turn-by-turn navigation on cell phones . . . . I assumed that would spell the end for most of these GPS units.

Best buy has a TON of games for 34.99 including l4d 2. I'm pretty sure you can order online too.

Yeah, they sold out of L4D2 online. They still have the new Need For Speed and a couple of others though.

I leave for D.C. tomorrow afternoon/evening, and I may not leave the house until I have to go, haha. I respect those that brave Black Friday, but it's just not my cup of tea.

Wife went out in the madness tonight already. Toys R Us opened their doors at midnight. She snagged a DSi for one of the rascals that lives here. Sweet!

I shop Amazon all the time also. It's real good.

I was inside a book store picking out books and just brought up Amazon on my iPhone and boom, saved like $14 on all the books. Technology saving me money.

Just completed my online order for the TomTom ONE 125SE from WalMart; back to bed for a few hours, then checking out the NewEgg deal once it goes live at 9am. I'm thinking of ordering both while they're this cheap, then returning that which I decide not to keep, or selling it on eBay...
