Cyber Monday seems to be a letdown. - blusubaru - 12-01-2009
I've not found any killer deals. I expected big things from NewEgg and Fry's. NewEgg has similar deals today as Friday. Fry's still hasn't fixed their sales section of their website from Friday (pages 4, 5 and 6 are blank). There is a really nice in-store deal at Fry's, but I loathe going in there: http://www.frys-electronics-ads.com/ads/2009/11/30/45562/Intel-Core-i5-Processor-750-Gigabyte-GA-P55-UD3R-Motherboard
Core i5 750 and Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R for $190AR. About $140 cheaper than the 'Egg.

Yeah, Cyber Monday was more of a snooze than anything else. I bought one $4.99 item for myself and that was it.
I did get in on the $25 worth of free Sharpies at Staples yesterday. If they actually fulfill the order before they run out of stock, that might be the best deal of the weekend for me.

Agreed.

I ordered quite few items from Amazon, mostly video games for half what they would have cost
me around here. I've done more online shopping this year than ever before. Just ordered my
son a set of adjustable dumbbells from Walgreens that were less than half what they were at
Dick's, wife added some lighter weight ones and that brought it to over $75 and that got us
free shipping and $15 off the order.
$59.99

Snooze. Two items I was looking for were a 32" HDTV similarly priced to the BF deals and a 1+ kVA UPS.

We got the Sharpies deal too, my wife and me. We had to go in store and when I tried calling them today I got a message saying to offer was no longer valid - hours before the original cut off.

Hmph. I watched the flyers for black friday sales and found nothing compelling enough to get me out of the house. I looked all weekend for something good for todays cyber monday and again, nothing compelling to get me to break out my plastic.
It's really scary (scary good, I guess) how I'm watching my money these days.
C'mon retailers! Show us something!!

Man, you guys were all about those Sharpies . . .
The offer said "expires 11/30."
That could be any time on 11/30, from 12:01 A.M. to 11:59 PM, no?
