Black Friday last year was weak, come to think of it I don't really recall Black Friday having any deals worth losing sleep over. I'm not gonna lose 8 hours of sleep to save 40% on a TV that I can get close to the price on a sale somewhere anyways, I'll pay the $200-$400 savings and enjoy sleeping in thank you. "Cyber Monday" is equally blah, I find the deals posted on here throughout the year to be much more exciting. |

There is minimal overlap between the average SlickDealer and the average Black Friday shopper. Not everyone works a desk job and those that do don't necessarily have access to SlickDeals. Considering most daily deals are posted during the business day, how exactly do you expect a utility worker or truck driver to routinely check SD for hot deals? If someone can save $400 on a TV by waiting in line for 8 hours, that works out to $50/hr. Not too many people make $100k/yr and those that do are generally located in high cost of living areas. $400 may not be enough for you, but for someone working for minimum wage, that could be a couple days of work. I haven't shopped in-store Black Friday sales for years, but I don't go around mocking those who do. You need to grow up and seriously reevaluate your thoughts on non-SD shoppers. |

Dude, this is Slickdeals. I just canceled and re-bought an Amazon order to save 48 cents. |

My friends and I have had a long tradition of setting up camp at Best Buy. We usually save quite a bit on gifts. I look forward to camping in the parking lot every year, we have a good time and usually make some friends. I think it's a lot better than sitting at home and watching daytime television!
