Got Halo 4, Black Ops (1, first disc was damaged and Target had it NEW for $15.) and Battlefield 3 ($15 too :)). Got some jeans and gloves at Macy's - wanna get a soundbar/woofer for my TV as LEDs being super thing (1.4" for mine) doesn't leave much room for good speakers!

Funny you should mention that iLive soundbaes as that's the one that I saw that got me going in the first place. Was that sale only today? I just checked it and the price on the website shows back up there again at $85.

Got a LG HDTV so wanted to get that but just keep hearing it's crappy.

There's the other model with a subwoofer:

Which seems to be much better but just crazy money :p

Yeah it was only last night/today. I went there looking for it and the guy said they were all gone. Then I was browsing in the clearance dept. and someone must've changed their mind and left it sitting there. The same guy saw me later walking around with it and scanned it, I got the last one.

I would check amazon or bfads.net if you still want it,

That LG one looks sick, I think my aunt has one like that. It's not worth that kinda cash though. You could get a 1000w 5.1 surround for that price.

Zip! Nada! Nothing! Zilch! I don't participate in this stuff as it is too violent in our area. Instead, I shopped online and got mighty tempted by some black Friday deals (Not Cyber Monday for some reason), but still didn't buy anything. Not sure why...

No electronics this year, just house stuff.

Got a tv stand, coffee tables, kettle, knife set, towels, small utensil drawer stuff like can opener, etc.

That's pretty much it.. Sad when I shop for house stuff rather than electronics... :(

No tech for me this year, took advantage of amazons sales from afar (surprisingly pretty close to what those in the States were getting seconds for) picked up a pair of AE wingtip Daltons and matching Manistee belt :)

A Kindle Fire - was reduced to ?99 here in the UK.

Very pleased with it so far, though rather annoyed to find it's the "updated" version of the Fire with a locked bootloader which means I can't flash it to a base / normal Jellybean ROM and am stuck with the Amazon one for now :(

Also got few apps on Google Play (QuickOffice for 99c and RDM+ for $1.99) and WP Games.

I stood in line for almost an hour with a few hundred other people at a microbrewery here in Milwaukee. They were releasing a limited run Imperial IBA called "Black Friday". I couldn't believe how massive of a turnout they got and they sold out of it in an hour.

It was snow flurrying, windy as hell, but the beer is fantastic and well worth the bit of suffering in the cold to get it. Looking forward to doing it again next year. :)

The only thing I got was The Big Bang Theory Season 5 on DVD for $8.99. I was thinking about setting my alarm since that deal went live around 3:30am on Friday, but I woke up around 4:30am and only half of it was claimed. I should receive it tomorrow.

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
