Black Friday Conquest 2011: What did you end up Getting?

All I did was order Tactics Ogre PSP from Amazon's sale for 11.99. Also got The Lion King Diamond Edition DVD/Blu for my girlfriend for Christmas. My wallet lives.

Battlefield 3
Crysis 2
Alice
SotD
Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate
Gears of War Triple Pack
Uncharted 3
FF XIII
Vanquish
Resistance 3
Driver: SF

And a Snuggy. I've got some major buyers guilt, but the truth is I always wait for a game to drop all year and this is the only time lever go crazy. Usually I won't spend anything over $15 on a game or anything.
 
24" Dynex 1080P TV, PS3 holiday bundle, 16GB thumb drive, a bunch of PS Triple games and BRs, Bissell bagless vacuum.

I feel better. :)
 
I got my little pony friendship is magic Fluttershy pony and Gran Turismo 5 for PS3. I could have gotten a 40inch Emerson 1080 (walmart) tv since I was in line with my brother and they ask me if I wanted one I said no I am going to run my Philips Magnavox 27inch CRT till the end!
 
Only thing I bought myself today was X-Men First Class and The Crow blurays for $9.99 and $4.99 respectively. I did nab Metroid Other M for $4.99 yesterday, and grabbed the Wii with NSMB and Zelda for $150 at Target earlier in the week.

Gift wise, I got Dirt 3 for my brother for $15 and the Harry Potter bluray boxed set for $70 for my mom.
 
Brutal Legend PS3, Ben Hur Ultimate CE Blu, and New Vegas PS3 from Best Buy. Jackie Brown Blu from Target, and Pulp Fiction Blu from Amazon.

Oh Ben Hur on Blu looks GORGEOUS. You will not regret buying it and the extras from what you bought, I'm assuming it was the one that was the big package right? Nice extras as well. I bought it on day one and don't usually but I'm a big Charleton Heston fan, especially of his early stuff.
As far as stuff I bought the Kinect, Battlefield 3, Arkham City(now just need to get Asylum), a $3 singing game I'm interested in for the PS3 and the Hangover for B&M. For Amazon I picked up "X-Men" when it popped up as a lightning deal. Wish X2 would've popped up as well since I've never seen it.
 
I've already posted in another similar thread but what the hell. I went a little crazy but tried to keep it under $200. That didn't quite happen.

icondvdpng.png

Fringe S1 & S2 - $10 each
Burn Notice S1-S3 - $10 each

------------------------------

TOTAL SPENT: $256.86
TOTAL SPENT (per item): $11.68

When you break it down by what I spent per item, it doesn't seem so bad.
 
Since I worked on BF, I didn't bother doing any shopping, although I did price adjust 4 3-Month xbox live gold cards I bought earlier in the week.
 
I'll throw in the stuff I bought online leading up to BF and concede that I spent more than I had planned (had originally budgeted $500).

All that being said, I still missed out on the Walmart/Amazon $10 deal on Yakuza 4 and the WalMart $28 deal on Infamous 2.

A very tiny portion will come out of pocket (if at all). Have $100 in PayPal and selling my current 20GB Pro to cover the Xbox 360. Sold a giant DS lot for $200 that covers the PS3. Selling a sealed black label Uncharted 1 (going for $60+ on eBay) to cover the 4 PS3 games. The monitor is from money that I still haven't spent from last year's tax return. And the Apple purchase came from a $100 gift card that I had for over a year. Can't wait to turn my MacBook Air into a desktop experience.

Nothing....I didnt see any good deals on anything I wanted it. I am also very confused by some purchases people have here....Lord of the Rings? GTAIV? How did you not buy those types of things in the 10 years they have been out?

Because not everyone buys products as soon as they come out. A week and a half ago I JUST got a nice tv (which I've never had) and LOTR on Bluray for $15 is cheap.

Feel like I'm waiting for an upcoming lightning deal reading this.

As for myself ---

- Nintendo 3DS - $129.99
- Battlefield 3 - $28.00
- Forza 4 - $28.00
- Gears of War 3 - $28.00
- Disney Universe - $29.99
- Skylanders Starter Set - $49.99
- 2 Skylanders Character Packs - 2 for $26.99
- 2 Skylanders Single Packs - $4.99

I'm still not sure whether to keep the Skylanders stuff, I purchased the set on a whim and was this close to taking it back until I saw a thread on here that Gamestop had a sale for the characters. Now I'm in big trouble
 
Stopped at H.H. Gregg at 4AM on BF. Got the 60" Sharp Aquos LED TV with gaming mode. After the 5 year Insurance and taxes it set me back just under $1,400, that's about $58 a month with no interest. Now I have to figure out what I'm doing with my dying JVC.

After that, stopped at Wal-Mart for some Blus.
$5 each:
Pulp Fiction
300
Goodfellas
Rain Man
Quantum of Solace
Menace II Society
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The Neverending Story
The Princess Bride

Also found a copy of Yakuza 4 for $10 among the movies.

Then jumped over to BB and grabbed a 4gb flash drive and 4gb SD card for $5 each along with a Vivitar 7.1 mp camera for $25. Needed a cheap camera to replace my aging Samsung 4 mp for work trips.

Arrived at home at the crack of dawn. Slept until about 5pm.

My main goal was to get one of the 42' Sharps from Best Buy (failed), or the 46' Westinghouse from Target (failed). I ended up just walking out with Uncharted 3 and Battlefield 3 for $29.99 each from Best Buy. My 32' Westinghouse from Black Friday 09 is still kicking, but I liked the sound of a 40+ :(
 
This being my first Black Friday I went to Walmart at 11 and saw nothing I was looking for, so I went to Bestbuy ten minutes to midnight and waited in front avoiding the line. I walked in at about 12:15 am after the line went in and walked around the crowd picked up
Uncharted 3 for 30
Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions for 15
And Shaun White Skateboarding for 3 as a filler item for the $45 reward certificate

As I was walking to the line I saw some guy leave one of his ten tvs since it went over his credit card limit so I walked over and picked up the 42" Samsung which now hangs in my room for $277 I think I did okay :D
But I wouldn't have done this without CAG
So much thanks to all the CAGs that posted like crazy.
 
was getting the all in one printer shipped from bes buy for 25 bucks ordered thursday but the sob still havent shipped it and now it says INSTORE ONLY FU best buy.
 
I think I did well this year.

Best Buy:

X-Men First Class Blu Ray - $10
Machete DVD - $6

Amazon:

Family Guy Seasons 5-8 - $9 each (bought on Thanksgiving day)
Call of Duty World at War - $10

Tried to get the PSP bundle with free game for $100 at Toys R Us but they were sold out. Still on the fence on whether or not I should buy the system on its own at Amazon for the same price or get a Xbox 360.
 
i got portal 2, and need for speed hot pursuit for like 24 bucks from gamefly, then metroid, the other M for fricking dirt cheap. 5 bucks i think.

the cool thing is that i most likely will be trading these in at amazon and after i get my credit, black friday will only cost me like 3 bucks.
 
I didn't go too nuts, mostly some TV shows on DVD. My picks ups:

Amazon
:dvd: The IT Crowd S2-4 - $10 each
:dvd: Community S2 - $14
:dvd: Modern Family S2 - $13

Best Buy
:dvd: The League S1 - $10
:dvd: Big Bang Theory S4 - $9
:360: Gears of War 3 - $30

Fox Connect
:dvd: The League S2 - $6
:dvd: American Dad S6 - $8

Target
:dvd: Burn After Reading - $2
:dvd: The Hangover - $4

Only sale I regret missing out on was It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia S6 on Amazon for $13 -- completely forgot about that Lightning Deal till it was sold out. Target.com matched it, but they don't carry the DVD in store, and no free shipping killed it for me. I also missed the Big Bang LD, but luckily Best Buy came through for me on that with free shipping :)
 
I picked up Forza 4 at WalMart for $28 and was fortunate to find an Xbox 3 month gold membership for $12. And a belgian wafflemaker - didn't get the one on sale, but I found a nice one. Looking forward to making WAFFLES!
