Black Friday: What's Your Take?

With all of the rampant pre-black Friday sales materials floating around, the real questions is simple: "What, if anything, does it mean to you?"

I have seen some seriously deep discounts on Blu-Ray players and HD TV's. But what if what you are wanting to buy is not on sale, for example the Wii. What then? Do you just buy some soon to be outdated technology because it's on sale? 

Some, if not most, of the items really reduced in price will be outdated and not made again. That is why they are getting such cheap cuts. But the good stuff, the stuff that is new and oh so very pretty, well, the deals won't be that good.

A good rule of thumb for "Black Friday" ads is this: If you planned on buying that "type" of technology, check it out, otherwise, buy what it was you were going to buy in the first place. Don't just buy something because it is on sale!
