Bought 3 (last 3 in store, actually) of those 20" Acer monitors at Best Buy for $79.99 each. One for my mom, two my cousin paid me back for for his wife and kid. Best Buy was crowded, but not so crazy that it was really annoying or anything.
I got two b/g/n (2.5ghz only) USB 2.0 dongles from newegg for ~$10/ea, they sold out shortly there-after. It was the only good deal I saw where I had an immediate use/need for the item on sale...
Most of their better printers went out of stock 10 minutes after I got the email this morning... Still got a good deal though, just not on my first pick.
I'm currently too poor to do much more than window shop. I was amazed at the prices on blu-ray players tho. BB had a store brand for $99.00 and a Samsung for $149.00. Might have to break down and get one. I did buy Casino Royale for $3.99. I think I can afford $4.00
My haul is mostly Blu-ray movies, since I bought all of my electronics already:
1) Quantum of Solace - $10
2) V for Vendetta - $8
3) I am Legend - $8
4) James Bond 10-pack - $60 (really happy about this one)
5) Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - $13
6) Superbad - $10
7) Spiderman Trilogy - $30
8) Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 3.5" 1.5TB HD - $97
I slept in, stayed in jammies till afternoon, then went and did a little shopping (I am already 95% done). No lines or hassles to speak of. Still one big item to buy (a PC) and I am waiting for a cut throat deal before I give up the bucks for that one.
I probably have the worst horror story yet - I had to wait 7 hours for a 32 inch tv, and then had to give it away because my mother's friend "hadn't had a tv in a year and needed it more than I did". My mother will pay for this.
I tried buying the Acer netbook at Newegg for 189. I refreshed the page within 5 seconds of the new price being up, but the site was so slow that by the time I was choosing a payment method it was already removed from my cart due to being out of stock :-(
I didn't buy anything, I'm still waiting for Christmas Eve.
And in all honestly, It's not worth it to me to stand in line for four hours just to save a few hundred dollars. It's my four day weekend so I slept. For me, my savings was my patience.
