Your Black Friday & Cyber Monday Plans?

Since Cyber monday is on monday, and black friday is a day away, and some stores here in the US have already begun their sales by now or starting around 9pm/midnight, what are your plans? Will you buy anything? Will you wait on those tremendously long lines? Or just sit back and stay home and shop online for the best deals?

Im planning to avoid the long lines, and instead shop from home, from sites like newegg, bestbuy and some clothing stores.

Hopefully I can find a good deal on a new laptop and tv.

What about you guys?

Steam has already started some if it's deals.

Tho I'm gonna wait for the winter (Christmas) deals and buy a company pack like Valve or Bethesda.

I bought most of my family big presents last year after getting my new job (including a macbook pro for the gf). Going to be pretty laid back this year I think, don't even really now what I'll be getting as presents for people. As for myself I'm pretty content with what I have. Might take advantage of a cyber monday for my bro if the hong kong online hobby shop has any good deals.

You can have a friend gift it to you through steam, then just pay them back with cash.

Oh and thanks, I should get Garrys Mod now

Not much shopping this Friday. Just went to the mall and browsed through stores selection. Brought some clothes but the real shopping is going to be on Cyber Monday. Planning to order computer hardware parts and build a decent gaming desktop.

My biggest buy was i5 2500k and i5 3570k which were at microcenter here in Denver for like $99.. My brothers gf does a lot of ebaying, she already sold 10 of them for $175 around, so like $50 profit for me per right there, was a really easy & quick sale, I'm nice so I give her a big chunk

motherboards at newegg, and power supplies from newegg and hard drives all around, I usually easily sell drives to companies I work for, for like if they need a drive for whatever I say "I got that new!" and give it to them like $5 less than whatever it's worth at the time, lol.. usually on sale it's like 50% which is a huge profit

not as good as some years, 2 years or so back my buddy and I bought the black friday blizzard WoW sale stuff, like $5 for the games, resold all for like $30.. was something ridiculous like 2k total profit or something - he bought most of them I was pretty poor then, but total that's how much we got lol..
