    ***Official Black friday / Cyber monday deals***

    Anyone aiming for anything? Looking to get at least a 55" for the bedroom (have the 60 in the living room that's fine) and a laptop/desktop to connect to it.

    Is 4k really worth it or is 1080 good enough? I'm not big on having things be super super clear so never really thought of looking into that.

    I don't want to fag up this thread with any debating, but let's have an honest talk about Black Friday / Cyber Monday.

    Are you really getting great deals, or are you simply buying lower quality crap for "cheap"? I have always suspected the latter in many cases.

    SAMs club Black Friday ad has a 58" Vizio 4k UHD smart tv for $698 that I'm planning on grabbing
    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    we just got a 60" samsung 1080 for the living room. one of those smart televisions. it's almost too clear personally. can't even imagine what 4k looks like. we have 50 in bedroom. your room must be quite large to accomodate 55 or bigger.

    Anyone know if Apple is doing anything this year for the new Ipad? The last one I bought was several years ago and I got it during their one day sale. I think it was $50 off or something.

    I got my last iPad from B&H Photo and Video (based out of New York) during Black Friday / Cyber Monday.

    You also don't pay sales tax if you're outside of NY state, which is another plus on an expensive purchase like that.

    Best Buy and Target both have iPad promotions

    Look up their ads I think Target is doing gift cards.

    I am a religious follower of Black Friday, lots of junk but also lots of good deals.

    Best deals far and away this year are Kohls 30% in Kohls cash for every $50 you spend. Give you some kind of idea buy their $400 PS4 you would get $120 to spend at Kohls on your next purchase.

    Other general fantastic deal is Target's spend $75 get 20% off a shopping trip the following week. Pair that with a Red Card and your next shopping trip is 25% off.

    I plan on going to Target spending $75 on games and movies then will go back the following week and drop probably $1000 on groceries and a couple grand on a new camera, tv and Xbox one.

    If you are looking for something specific I can probably help.

    I'm looking for the new Ipad Pro. I saw the ads for what Abrown posted (thank you. out of reps for the day) but they were for the other models. I think this one is too new to have any deals.

    Seriously do not buy an iPad Pro, this is coming from someone that owns a iPhone, MacBook Air and a 27" iMac. It is iPhone OS on a over powered tablet. Why would you consider buying it?

    I wanted to upgrade the family Ipad. We have one that's around five years old. What do you recommend?

    There are no crushing deals this year for either system. Sadly they are both selling too well to illicit great deals. I think it is universally agreed upon Dell has the best deal though.

    $299 gets you Gears, Fallout and an extra controller.

    It's almost as big as my living room. My condo/co-op is the biggest in this building (hence the extra maintenance fees I pay monthly) 55" would be perfect, 60 or larger could be pushing it. Honestly just getting it for the lady friend as she hates watching shit in bed on the laptop, I personally don't care.

    100%, but the crap stuff at a discount is better than the crap stuff at a premium?
