    Not many good deals this year. Not even the economical crisis was enough to push the prices down, so that the market can gain some momentum going into the next year.

    it's a little confusing, looks like some of the prices won't show up until tomorrow on black friday? ex. cordless mouse listed on the tracker for $5, on the website it's $15

    Would be better if the main tracker page also states when the deals go live

    I thought it was useful. I found several things that I purchased online on Thursday. Worked for me.

    Is it me, or am I not seeing any deals that are any different than we normally see throughout the year: Unless, of course, I want a new bluetooth or a spindle of DVD's.

    Not Ben's fault but I was really dissapointed with the black friday this year:(

    This is great. I got several good buys. Thank you Ben.

    Staples said their site would be on-line at 6 am. At 6 am it crashed. It worked ok at about 6:30 am.

    Circuit City worked fine.

    Office Depot does not show the Black Friday price when I click on an item. g, the web cameras. No tech info or reviews either.

    In general, deals are pretty weak. I think retailers are aware consumers are holding back. And consumers are trying to wait it out. I'm guessing better deals to come, once retailers get desperate if sales this weekend are weak (which I think they will be).

    Yeah - outside a few ho-hum deals (which aren't much better than the regular deals) I'm not seeing much.

    There isn't a single decent hard drive deal. None of these sites have any discounted video cards. Remember when there were amazing deals on HD's/video cards worth waiting in line for? A few reasonable printers, but who needs those anymore?

    Overall - very poor black friday
