Wal-mart's Black Friday deals will begin at 11:00 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day. The door-buster deals will begin at 5:00 a.m., but customers don't have to wait outside to get the deals. They can be in the store all night.
This will avoid what happened last year when customers were trampled, and a door crushed a Wal-mart employee, literally. Wal-mart is vowing not to be beat in their Black Friday deals, so they are ready for the rush.
CNN Money reports, "Among the doorbuster deals the circular advertises: the 32-inch Emerson 720p LCD HDTV for $198; 42-inch Emerson 1080p LCD HDTV for $398; 42-inch LG 1080p LCD HDTV for $478; Magnavox Wi-Fi Blu-ray player (with a $10 credit for on-demand movie service Vudu) for $68; 8GB iPod Touch for $225, plus a $50 Wal-Mart gift card; Kodak C183 14-megapixel 3-inch LCD digital camera for $59; and an HP 15.6-inch 250 GB harddrive laptop for $298."
Now, you have to ask yourself, are you willing to die for your electronics and toys? It's still going to be a madhouse, and wouldn't you rather shop online and find a good deals that way? Who knows if a Wi-Fi Blu-ray player for $68 is the best deal? It sure sounds good.
Are you going shopping on Thanksgiving evening to try to get the best deals? Both Wal-mart and Targets are promising to outdo one another. Isn't that fun, but isn't that dangerous?
