no offense engadget crew but posting black friday deals at 121 pm just doesnt cut it these days. I was driving by bestbuy thanksgiving day to check out my odds and at 3 pm there was already 20 + people lined up outside. To me that means that a useful blackfriday post is 2 days before the event at least. about half the stuff listed is in store only, and the other half starts online at 5 am and is already sold out.

Sure is a good thing that most of these deals are online, and don't require you to leave the house!

The previous two years I had camped outside bestbuy with a group of friends, twas not to be this year. I had planned on going up at 9:00 pm, I got a call from a guy I knew who got their earlier and he said at 7:00 there were 38 people in line, when I called him back 15 minutes later the number was up to 42... So, I decided that with so many people in line the laptops were as good as gone, so I called it off for me, and got a good night of sleep before splurging.

Apparently stores can sue if a website posts prices from ads before the sale happens.
