Everything You Need to Know About Black Friday!

Wow!  The ladies over at KCL have some great Black Friday information I wanted to share with you.  Are you planning to brave the crowds to get some deals? This extensive spreadsheet will give you the lowest price (plus competing prices, in some cases) of over 150 items. They've also compared many of the items with Amazon prices to make sure we were actually getting a deal. The results are surprising.  They’ve covered it all (well, most of it) from toys, electronics, gaming systems, tablets, household items, DVDs and blu-rays and more! Wondering where to find the cheapest TV? What about the XBox Kinect? Have a Furreal dog on your list? What about pots and pans? In a nutshell, this list is for you!
