Soooo this past Friday, we decided to brave the crowds and see what all the "hype" was about. We had been gifted with 3 Best Buy gift cards for the wedding and Brian's birthday, to the total amount of $200. We were eyeing a surround sound system for our TV, but most nice ones were outta the price range we could do. I happened to find a black friday ad on Wed online, and Beset Buy had their SONY 5.1 1000W surround system, complete with wireless rear speakers, 280W sub, stand alone front speakers, 5 disc changer player, on SALE. Regularly $430, the sale price was $280! We were going to order online, but the shipping was $40.. so we decided to have our first "black friday adventure". Hahahahaaa, wow. Never again ;)
We got in line at Best Buy at 4:50 am, doors opened at 5:03 am, got in, got the system, got out, at 5:12!! They even honored a 10% off coupon, so we paid $250, for the $430 sound system. Yeeeah.
The sound on it is BEYOND AMAZING. Wow, movies are a whole new experience now! We are thrilled with it.
Unless there's a specific item to shop for (like in this case) we've decided that getting up before it's light out and being in crowds of people.. is just dumb. Yuck. But it was an adventure ;)
Very cool, congrats on the new sound system! What a deal!
