Black Friday 2014 = Fri 28 Nov ----- Cyber Monday 2014 = Mon 01 Dec

The first Black Friday ad dropped today (Harbor Freight), so once again it's time to fire up our annual BF thread. BF is no longer a 2-3 day shopping event. Thanks to a major shift to online shopping, BF now lasts several weeks with frequent deals that may or may not be better than the planned door busters. The last two years saw online BF deals starting just after midnight on Thanksgiving morning, with some stores opening their doors later that day. Expect this trend to continue with even earlier openings this year. Also, some stores will offer bonus deals and earlier shopping times for their preferred customers (memberships, reward cards, etc).

Only book-related technology will be tracked in this thread (tablets, ereaders, MP3 players, computers, digital storage, accessories). The OP will serve as a master index for these categories; linking to posts with device and pricing specifics. I'll also post links to ad scans for stores related to these categories only. Other BF ads can be found at any of the BF websites listed in the same post as the store ad scans.

Feel free to post any BF stories and experiences you may have. Pics and videos are also welcome. I hate dull, boring threads loaded with stats.

* Off-Topic Deals -- I don't mind if you point out deals in non-book categories and a little back and forth discussion; but if further discussion is needed, please PM the members involved. Remember, the primary focus of this thread is book-related technology.
