Can't wait for the Valentine's Day Black Friday and the Spring Break Black Friday and the Memorial Day Start of Summer Black Friday and the July 4th Black Friday and the Labor Day Time for Fall Black Friday
They can probably squeeze a few more in there somewhere...

Don't forget the other colors. What about Green Thursday where they focus on eco friendly products (or xbox products I guess)? And lets not forget Red Wednesday where only project (RED) products get sold.

Well there are 52 fridays, so I'm sure they can fit in a lot more. Question is how many can they fit before going bankrupt.

I kind of chuckled when I got the email. BF was pretty tame this year. Why would anyone expect the same sales to be more successful...
1) after Christmas presents have been bought 2) after the bills for Christmas presents have arrived 3) after we got our Christmas presents
I didn't even look

I think they are going after the tax refund crowd so there definitely will be more "Black Fridays" to encourage people to bring that money to Best Buy.

It's a tad kittle early to be going after the tax refund crowd...who files and gets their refund in January? And I think anyone that has the foresight to file and claim their refund early in Feb/Mar probably isn't the type to blow it at Best Buy...!

TV deals during January are not targeted towards Tax Refunds, they are targeted towards the Super Bowl crowd. It is actually probably the time of the year to buy a TV. Better deals than on Black Friday.

Best Buy can go to hell, I'm tired of their deceptive advertising. Offering a week long coupon only to pull it 10 hours later. They're obviously a basket case soon to be BK worthless piece of shat company. I'll payer a higher price to not support their worthless corp.

I meant more like the people who do the tax refund "loans" where you can file with no W-2 and get a prepaid card with your expected loan amount. It's quite popular with people who only work one job and know they have a refund coming.

You do realize that they did that because the coupon was abused and they lost a lot of money right? If it was your business what would you have done?

The Super Bowl is next Sunday and there are traditionally TV sales leading into that.

Not produce a coupon that had obvious flaws causing a massive loss in money and screwing over of legitimate customers?
