Store Flyers for Black Friday 2007

Post by Sugarflower »

My husband found a nice little site tonight that shows many store flyers for the Black Friday sales.

http://bfads.net/

:love2 There is a nice Nintendo DS Zelda Edition bundle I'd give a kidney for (I'm such a Zelda geek!) that Circuit City and Toys R Us is selling, probably a few other stores selling them as well.

So far nothing has leaked from the company I work for, Gamestop/EB Games, other than they are hoarding Nintendo Wii systems to sell on Black Friday. So, if you want a Wii make sure you are the first ones there that day. Though, at the moment I don't know if there will be a discount on them or if they will be bundled with anything.

It's a handy website. Thanks for the link. :)

Although I'm going to be getting craziness by working retail in-person. By the time I get through with work I'm not going to be in a mood to visit other stores.

At least Black Friday is not as stressful as it used to be because of all the people shopping online now. It used to be so busy in our store on the day after Thanksgiving that it was extremely difficult just to walk through the aisles of our store. Even walking through the mall parking lot was very difficult because of wall-to-wall cars.

There's only about a third of the shoppers that there used to be twelve/fourteeen years ago. So Black Friday has watered down from "All the Workers Stressed Out and Angry after Ninety minutes of Working" to "Very Busy Day".

Our store makes about $950,000 in sales on the Day After Thanksgiving.

I don't have to be in to work until 9 on Friday, so if there's a deal I want this year, I can actually go for it. :) Been awhile since that's happened.

Man, that Zelda DS would be nice. I already have a DS, though. XD *fought for a pink lite LAST Christmas*

Thanks for the awesome link!

I just bought a pink lite about 3 or 4 months ago. :P I'd love to have the Zelda edition but may be stuck with my pink one.

I won't know my work schedule for another day or so. I'm hoping I won't have to work that day since last year was just horrible. Our store is just to small with a large crowd of shoppers cramming their way through it. :(

I have no idea what to expect for my store... I work at a relatively new Borders location. But I work inventory team anyways, so it's not like I'm in charge of sales or cashiering. ^_^;
