Sears Black Friday Ad Scans

deleted

Cutting your family Thanksgiving short to save $100 -$150 is just not worth it to me. I can deal with 12AM openings but this is just getting absurd.

Move your Turkey day to Saturday!

I never do Black Friday, but all this BS about having to cut family time short is really, really lame. If you want to spend time with family, why wait for one day in a year to do it? People don't think about putting in the effort the rest of the time. It's like with V-Day...

I looked up the 50 inch TV that is supposedly on sale on BF for $300 and its a 60 hz LED TV. Was hoping it would be at least 120hz. Anyway, I think the model number is 50L2200U.

If it's a 60htz I'll pass. Time for me to do some BF deal homework. I could use a couple of tv's for the bedrooms.

For those looking for an easier way to do BF at sears for some of the deals search out a "hometown" sears store. I've done this for several years. They are overlooked. Little to no line. There were 4 of us the past 2 years and they did hand out tickets for the popular items to us. Something else to check out is the sears reward card. Basically you earn points that convert to cash off a future purchase. I roll the points on last years deal to off set the cost of this years.

I agree normally - but honestly there is only like 3 times a year where our family all has off of work and we ALL get together.

Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.

All the other times someone is always absent because of work etc. Yes sometimes we get everyone together but getting 12 different people to take off of their full time jobs at once isn't an easy task.

Especially when some of us own our own business. Waiting out for 12 hours to save $150 just doesn't make sense. Go and do some landscaping for 8 hours and make $100 cash.

I'd be willing to wait 2-3 hours and maybe save some. The ONLY time I've waited out overnight was when I was a poor college student - waited from 10pm until 8am for xbox360. Spent $424 on it and ebay'ed that sucker to paid most of the balance of my fall tuition. Sold it for over $1200 that same morning - Netted like $700 in 1 night - which is WELL worth it.

So does anyone know (or have an idea) of how the 2 separate door busters work?

Will the store close at like Midnight or so? And let a line re-form (if there hasn't been one already?)

EDIT: Never mind. The ad says that the 8PM door buster is open all night. So how will this work? While people are running around the store shopping from 8PM-3:59AM, there will be a separate line waiting for the 4AM door busters?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Something like that, yes. I'd imagine there will be clearly marked lines for specific doorbusters. This is usually to prevent any one person from accumulating all of them. You have to choose which ones you want, or bring a lot of people.

You'll arrive at Sears, locate the line for the item you want, and wait for the time to come.

The real problem comes with the 8:00pm 50" LED that everyone will be after, considering there are multiple entrances, and if the signs aren't up, how do you know which door to camp at? And if the signs ARE up, chances are, you're not first, so you won't be getting that TV.

I have one pretty close as well, but would they be getting these 50" LEDs?

I think I will go to mine tomorrow and just look around for TV's. Maybe find a nice guy that will give me some info! Won't hurt to try!

The hometown stores are smaller and will not have everything in the ad. Ask in advance. Last year mine did have the 55" Samsung 3D smart TV which I picked up for less than $1400 with all the discounts. I was out the door in less than 10 minutes.They also had a dyson, a wet dry vac and deals on other tools and appliances. If you need a warrenty square trade has the best value I've found.

Does anyone else plan on buying the 50" LED next weekend?
