I have to say that the MS store hit it out of the ballpark this year as far as deals. RIDICULOUS deals! $60 games for $10 shipped. Unreal.

Best Buy came through with the deals as well. Amazon was ehhhh... mostly price matches. Thought about the Vita bundle but I passed. Total came to $200 after tax and CA recycling fee and I really don't see myself playing the Vita more than my PSP.

Overall a GREAT Black Friday week I did all of my purchases online no lines, no bullshit, no crazy motherfuckers. Hell yeah!

This was a pretty good Black Friday. I spent about a fourth of what I spent last year.

Oh, and I have some advice for next year. Never, ever go to Walmart on Black Friday wearing a navy blue shirt, & khaki cargo pants.
 
Not too much for me this year. Usually I'm all over the Blus but I already have most of what I want.

Here's what I did get though:

Assassins Creed Vita Bundle - $179.99 (Amazon)
Ipod touch 5th gen for daughter - $245 (Amazon)
Wii U Deluxe a week ago that I cant really afford - $379 (TrU)
 
PS3 Infamous/Uncharted Bundle $200
Playstation 3D Display x2 @$100 and one $20 warranty = $220
PS Sharpshooter $10
Dead Island GOTY $8
Grand Slam Tennis $8
Call of Juarez: The Cartel $8
God of War Saga $15
NBA 2k13 $25
Xcom: enemy unknown $25
Lollipop Chainsaw - $12
Two (2) 1TB External Hard Drives x2 @ $70 = $140
Breaking Bad Blu Ray season 1 and 2 $7.50 ($11.99 - $5 RZ)
Salt Blu Ray $4
handheld flood light $20
100 piece drill bit set - $12
3 piece utility knife set - $5

grand total = $719.50 [I might take back a few things]
 
I slept in the morning of Black Friday after doing lots of deal hunting (but little buying) on Thursday/today and ended up with…not much. Just wasn't interested in any real shopping this year, though I did waste a lot of time lurking and reading the deal stories as they unfolded.

Non-gaming buys:

iconamazon.gif
Amazon.com
Absorber Synthetic Drying Chamois, 27"x17" - $8.99 - Random unexplainable impulse Lightning Deal purchase.

Big Lots
Recliner - $189.99 - Purchased as a gift during their one-day only sale Thursday.

eBay
Garmin nuvi 2460LMT GPS 5" with Lifetime Maps and Lifetime Traffic (refurb) - $99.99 - Sold by Garmin on eBay, and a better deal than the nuvi 40LM model Best Buy and Radioshack have been showing this BF.

icontarget.gif
Target.com
Canon T3 18-55IS DSLR Camera with EF 75-300 Lens, Gadget Bag, and 4GB Memory Card Bundle - $499.99 - My cousin lucked out at the store but I jumped on it online on their behalf.

iconwalmart_r3.gif
Walmart.com
Lord of the Rings Original Motion Picture Trilogy (with Hobbit Movie Money)
iconbluraypng.png
- $9.86 - not a Black Friday sale but pre-ordered this a month or two ago and saw the credit card charge and estimated date so I'm listing it here anyways.

Non-gaming total: $808.82 - $499.99 for the camera (I'm getting paid back) = $308.83

Gaming buys:

iconamazon.gif
Amazon.com
Ratchet & Clank Collection
iconps3.gif
- $15.00 - Bought for myself.
God of War Saga
iconps3.gif
- $15.00 - Jumped on it after they finally matched Walmart's BF price.

Also traded in my God of War Collection and R&C1 on PS2 to Amazon after I secured those to get back a few bucks…and that was it!

Gaming total: $30.00

I pondered but did not buy several other things:

Gaming/non-gaming non-buys:

iconamazon.gif
Amazon.com
250GB PS3 Black Friday 2012 Bundle
iconps3.gif
- $199.99 - Saw in an unboxing video that it was just cardboard sleeves for the Uncharted/Infamous games (of which I have all of them already), so that plus the new super slim look of the console ultimately deterred me.
Assassin's Creed III Liberation PlayStation Vita Bundle with PSN code for PSASBR, 3-month PS+, $10 off ACIII
iconpsp_r2.gif
- $179.99 - Deal of the Day that went in and out of stock at the start (then back in stock for a few hours), but I'm really not in the market for a handheld right now as good as this deal was.
Borderlands 2
iconps3.gif
- $20.00 - Missed it, and while it's at $25 now, I'm spoiled into holding out for something lower.
Jak & Daxter Collection
iconps3.gif
- $14.99 - Would've bought for myself, but have too much of a backlog and chose the Ratchet & Clank duo over this one.
42" TCL L42FHDE30 1080p LCD HDTV - $179 - Never even was around when this happened for however many seconds on Amazon, oh well.
Titanic 3D+BD+DC
iconbluraypng.png
- $14.99 - For the family.
DualShock 3 Controller
iconps3.gif
- $34.99 - Still live now on Amazon as of this post. One of my controllers doesn't work properly but I'd rather wait; it's hit this price before and it'll be at this price again.

iconbestbuy.gif
BestBuy.com
Sony PlayStation 3D Display Bundle
iconps3.gif
- $99.99 - I thought about this forever (and the Best Buy warranty offers) but the failure rate scared me away.

iconwalmart_r3.gif
Walmart.com for in-store pickup
God of War Saga
iconps3.gif
- $15.00 - I still kind of want this but didn't want to go to the store, so I'll see.
(EDIT: bought at Amazon)

Elder Scrolls: Skyrim (PC) $22

It was a good Black Friday for getting Skyrim and a decent priced television since I wanted 3D LED and Smart Apps. I spent more mainly because of the TV but other than that it was a good priced spending BF.
 
I was out most of the time so I missed out on the best prices for some of these but I picked them up regardless.

Assassin's Creed III - $34.99
Borderlands 2 - $34.99
Theatrhythm - $19.99

Went to a comic book warehouse today, and spent about $25 on comics and some other knickknacks. Found a paperback copy of 30th anniversary of the Princess Bride. And this collection of arcade games for the SNES, practically new in box without a seal. ($3.50) I saw Golden Axe 1 and 2 complete for the Genesis at the same price, but didn't want to get it.

That's about it for my actual Black Friday weekend shopping.
