Post your best deals here.

Bed Bath and Beyond has 20% off everything in the store if you arrive by 10 AM on Friday.  I just bought a Keurig, so it's time to stock up.

If anyone sees Skyrim for the 360 on any deal list, let me know. Thanks.

Lowes has a $999 samsung washing machine and dryer on sale for $499 each.  Nobody comes close to matching that one.

So I imagine you end up paying a mark up most of the time??

I'm hitting Best Buy for their videogame deals. They have Batman: Arkham City, Rage, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution for $29.99 each. Buying Rage for myself, and the other two as gifts. And for those of you that do not have it, they also have Battlefield 3 for $29.99. Wal-Mart has some good deals also on videogames.

eckseid: I've looked at all of the black friday deals at stores like Best Buy, Wal-Mart, and Gamestop. None of them have Skyrim on sale.

Best Buy is having a bundle sale, $199 for an Xbox 360 + 3 month Live Gold subscription + 2 games. Pretty good deal. There is also a PS3 bundle for the same price.

PS3 gets Little Big Planet 2 Special Edition and Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One
Xbox 360 gets Fable III and Halo Reach.

Target also has the 4 GB version of the Xbox 360 for $139.  So if you are looking to get a gaming system, those are pretty good deals.

Not really, youre better off waiting for the Nexis than picking up one of the instantly outdated phones available for a buck.

so my kids have a WII and are now at the age where they are telling me it isn't cool anymore (they are 11/9).  Gamestop has the XBOX for $150 tomorrow, is that the better system or should I look at a PS3?

I'm leaning toward the because the kinnect games at least require them to get off the couch.  I'm assuming both PS3/Xbox can stream things like Hulu and Netflix in HD?

Both do Hulu and Netflix.  Personally, I find that the Xbox has a better controller.  It also seems to have a bit larger of a total game library.  But with the PS3, you get the added functionality of a bluray player.  I also find Xbox's online service better, though listening/talking to the other players is not something I would recommend letting your children do unless it's with a party of all other friends and not random people.

Be careful with the Xbox that's cheap, as usually that's the one that has less storage (the 4GB model), which leaves less space for things like downloadable games from the marketplace and to install games from the DVD to the hard drive to help with performance.

One neat thing you can do on the Xbox if you have netflix is invite friends over xbox live to watch a movie with you, and you can then chat with them as you both watch the movie in your respective homes.

I prefer the XBOX 360, but I don't think you can go wrong with either one. They both have pretty much the same library of games, except for the games that are exclusive to each system.

thanks.

amazon has all non-iPhone phones on sale for a penny.   That's all phones, every single phone.  Want a 4G droid that normally costs $799 - it's $.01 through Monday.
