I would be tempted by a small (13-inch screen?) laptop with good battery life. Also want an Epson xp600 printer below the usual $100 sale price.

Thanks for this thread, tubemonkey!

Seagates are cheaper still with 3 TB starting at $99. I kind of like the WD ones though.

Yeah external drives have come down since last year because wireless drives are the newest thing. You don't need a PC to access them just an app.

I probably don't really NEED them but I would love kobo glos for me and my daughter and I been looking for inexpensive but fairly good quality 7 inch tablets (1 android; 1 windows)

Eta: a 2+TB drive would be nice but I already have 2 1TB drives

An ad list for RadioShack is now out. I posted the link in the OP. As soon as the ad scan is leaked, I'll post it. As soon as I get a chance to look it over, I'll post deals appropriate to this thread.

Totally unimpressed with RadioShack's offerings this year. Very lame! In year's past, they were always a good source for Sansa Clips; but not so this year. They have no Clips.

They do have digital storage, though; but we won't know how good their prices are until we can compare them with other stores once those ads drop.

I'd love to see a laptop preloaded with linux.

cromag · 10-22-2013, 03:48 AM

Well, if you don't find one, don't let that stop you, eschwartz! My new laptop arrived today. After 5 minutes of active involvement on my part, and another 20 minutes letting it "do its thing" I had it dual booting between Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.10.

Just look for a good, inexpensive laptop, and you should be fine.

Too bad about the Clips. The 32GB Cruzer flash drive for $7.99 is tempting, though. Not enough to actually go the the store for one, but if it's offered online I'd get several.

Were the Clips available online last year?

Yes; they were.

I'll decide on storage after all of the ads drop.

Here's a thread over at SlickDeals you can follow. Even though I'll be tracking laptops, I'm sure they'll go into more depth than I ever will.

I don't touch a store or mall after Thanksgiving besides a grocery store.

I start Christmas shopping in July. I've never shopped on BF I don't have the nerves for it.

It's a tradition for my sister to go out that day, but she's always been a little crazy.

Online BF shopping isn't stressful. Streaming music and sipping tea while surfing the deals can be quite relaxing. Give it a shot this year.
