    Yeah, they are amazing. But, usually retailers have 2-5 in stock of each "good deal items" and you have to fight over it, it's not worth it IMO.

    Not to mention, if you want any shot at getting one, you have to be waiting in line at the store for at least an hour or so before it opens.

    Black Friday is considered in the States the biggest shopping day of the year, and retailers usually lower the prices A LOT. I think next is Boxing Day (Dec. 26), but it's smaller.

    Non-US Citizen here as well but let me say it will be hard to find a bargain better than those offered during the BF sales.

    I know where I'll be at 5am Friday :D

    You can get one for $7.98 (after rebate) at Staples. It's the SanDisk Cruzer 1GB USB Flash Drive. But the sale ends at 10am today. I'm in RI so I got one this morning. No lines, in fact, not many people at the store.

    So hurry if you still have time in the west coast.
