For the gun related stuff particularly, I didn't see that many great deals. Seems like the hot deals were the Cabelas Nikon M-223 and the Surefire 50%, and both of those look to be a bust. The only real deal that I wanted and missed were the Raptors from Primary Arms. Last year, I remember blowing up the credit card on all kinds of deals, this year not a single thing. More deals coming on Cyber Monday?

I didn't buy a single thing today. Just haven't come across any good deals. Hoping Monday brings better offerings. |
|
I was looking at a couple optics at Primary Arms. They didn't go on sale, so I didn't buy. Oh well.
Only thing my wife and I picked up were a few 64gb micro SD cards on Amazon for $10. Overall, pretty lame, I agree |
|
I got a new TV to replace a 12 year old one and a blu-ray player for it.
Also picked up some 22 but haven't looked for any other gun related items. |
|
|
Done with gun stuff for a while. Back into music.
I paid full price for an aNaLoG.MaN mini-chorus today. It should be worth it. |
|
I was impressed by the number of fucking emails Scott at Battery Junction sent me.
|

Really only impressed with some SF offerings and probably should have bought more. Other than that I only bought HighCom armor plates because they were priced right and I needed a set to fill a plate carrier. Had planned on picking up a set from somewhere anyways.
Other than that, this year has been bleh... |
|
Only thing impressive was Dicks had Federal .22 525 packs for $25. I haven't seen a 500 pack in about two years, save for like once at a walmart Spring 14; I should have bought more than just one.

I agree OP. I had planned to finish up a build with stuff I'd get on sale today. Guess what? Build is going to stay unfinished, only got a Geissele trigger, and that wasn't really a screaming deal.

Didn't even look this year. We're so damn broke the kids are going to have to be happy with getting supper for Christmas... |
|
We went to PetSmart, the liquor store, and out to eat sushi. It was a damn good Friday, IMO.
|
|
I got a small brick of 325 .22 from Bass Pro today. I wasn't even looking to buy any. I bought a S&W SD9VE on Wednesday from Bass Pro as part of their black Friday mailer. It was advertised at $349 and I walked out with it for $204.

Will depend on what happens with my surefire order, could be or .
|
|
Yeah I was mostly disappointed. Most of what was on sale seemed to be the gimmicky stuff that shops were likely trying to offload because they've had them in inventory so long. A few solid deals but nothing for me.

Kinda hard to make a great sale when profits are all ready at penny on the dollar prices. Shit really cant get no lower and BF is a fucking sham that women get excited about for some fucking reason. I took my ass to work cause folks gotta have some telephone and internets...........
|
|
I spent way more the last couple years then this year. Nothing really jumped out as an awesome deal , a few decent deals though.
|
|
I picked up 4 ammo cans for $40. One 70qt cooler for $20. 2 surf ire surplus lights on order. Bummed about the Nikon scope but there is still the rest of the year. I am more concerned about the time I will spend looking for deals than the deals themselves. I could make a lot more money actually working than surfing the net!

|
I will let you know when psa and sf orders actually ship!!!
|
|
This was my first year diving into the frenzy, so I didn't have much to compare it to. What sort of deals have you seen the past couple years that were so much better?
|
|
All I bought today was single barrel bourbon, and bourbon barrel beer. Oh, and 300 pieces of Lapua brass. it was a good day.
|
|
Kinda funny that the things people are most excited about were pricing mistakes.

Bought a 50" 1080p LED TV at Walmart last night for $269. They did a great job. I went there, bought the TV, and got back home in under an hour. No World Star Hip Hop Videos were filmed. Checked out with a piece of paper and they were loading the large items into patron's vehicles at the auto service bays.
Grabbed two Fire tablets from Amazon last night as well. So far that's it. The offerings have been really lame. Last year the lightning deals, penny offerings, and PSA deals were entertaining enough to keep me engaged. This year is pretty meh. |
|
I was impressed by the videos of the Black Friday fights. #blackfridaymatters |
|
The only thing I was interested in was a Geissele 13" black MK4 handguard. Both Geissele and PA have big sales on handgaurds, which of course, exclude out of stock items. I'll give you one guess as to which version/model is the only one out of stock.

I had one of the regular chorus pedals about 10 years ago and sold it after I stopped playing. I remember liking it. There is also a guy selling a mint Prince of Tone locally which I will pick up this week. The new Maxon AD10 analog delay with bucket brigade device tech has 600ms of delay time, and is high on my list to get next. I still have an FL-9, and it's an amazing pedal. |

The hard times are good times once they're behind you, because you held tight and got through it together. It's a time to shine. To forgive. To not argue. To appreciate each other. AND TO SEEK GOD AND SHEPHERD YOUR FAMILY TOWARDS HIM. I know it's little conciliation in the moment, but the difficult times my wife and I have weathered together are the fondest and most reassuring times ever. The dutiful efforts and demonstrated loyalty are priceless. |

In general things weren't all that great this year compared to some of what we've seen in the past, but I'm pretty happy with my haul.
I snagged a Champion 3650watt genset for $250 and a pair of LvlIV, stand alone, 10x12, multi-curve, shooters cut ceramics for $200 shipped, so I'm not feeling too disappointed . Now I just need to find a good deal on a PIG carrier. |
|
The only think I picked up was totally not firearm related.
A new fish finder for my kayak. |
|
200 off aimpoint h1 and 50 off slr rail. I'm pretty happy about that, both things I planned on getting at some point in the future.
|

We usually don't even leave the house on Black Friday. We put up Christmas trees and decorations.
|
|
Bunch o nuthin. Got a 40" tv for the bedroom for $110 but all the gun stuff was lame.
|
|
There was some really good deals but you have to know your prices and act quickly, a real deal will sell out fast.
Most were meh, or small savings over normal "sale" prices. |
