As you all probably know, we've been experiencing some technical difficulties with the site. We were attacked by some big, bad bots (see image) which resulted in downtime for our site. Hopefully we have resolved the issue so we can continue our coverage of Pre-Black Friday Deals, Black Friday Deals and our awesome Black Friday / Cyber Monday Giveaways. We appreciate your patience and understanding, and apologize for the inconvenience caused by the bots. Stay tuned for more Black Friday / Cyber Monday coverage; you don't want to miss out!
