How to Decipher the Front Page

I do quite a bit of cross linking to help find things. So click the links.

Post 1: lists which BF categories get posted where, it also includes a table of contents for each major category, and lists the BF websites I use most.
Quote:
Table of Contents

Store Index | Tablets | eReaders | Media Players | Smartphones | Computers
Digital Storage | Accessories | Discount Programs | Shipping & Returns
Shopping Tips | General Thoughts | Decipher Front Page | Wish List
Post 2: lists the stores being tracked. It includes a link to the store's website, the store's abbreviation, a link to the BF ad scan, and a link to a post (details) containing dates, times, items on sale, etc.
Quote:
Store Index 2019

Amazon (AMZ) --------------> ad scan --- details
Barnes & Noble (BN) -------> ad scan --- details
Best Buy (BB) ---------------> ad scan --- details
Posts 3~9: each post contains a major category and sub-categories.
  • Clicking the blue category link takes you to a third party website listing all of the sale items in that category. Those items are linked to the page in the ad where the item is found and also to the store's web page for that item.
  • Clicking the Specs/Info link takes you to the post in the Tablets, eReaders, Media Players thread with a listing of major devices and other info.
  • Clicking a blue product link takes you to that product's website.
  • Clicking a store abbreviation link in a sub-category takes you to that store's Black Friday post with details and pricing about individual items in that category for that store.

Tablets 2019 --> Tablets | Specs/Info

Apple iPad ----> BB | BJs | COS | TAR | WAL
B&N Nook ----> BN
Posts 10~15: self-explanatory
