Good lookin' out muchspl3.![]()
I save alot of my future purchases for Black Friday.
Most of the stuff in my house is either free or deeply discounted because of this great day.![]()
Blank DVD, CD, and jewel cases....never pay for 'em (besides tax).
200 GB hard drives....$60. Hell the rug in my basement cost $50.
The list goes one and on...
Here's the tips I came up with.....
1. Be out there at 5:30 am.
2. Hit electronic stores first (if you want electronics of course). You get the most savings on higher priced items...which are usually electronics. Don't bother trying to save $5 on a doll for your daughter when you can save $70 on a hard drive.
You can buy the doll at full price with less crowd.
3. Pay attention to rebate rules.
Many times, although it may not say it, it's one per customer, per household.
If you send a rebate in with the same recipient name as another, one will get dumped.
The same goes for address but there is another piece of shit rule that is almost never stated ONE PER SAME RECEIPT.
If get multiple of the same product and print different names and addresses on different rebate receipts, it many times mean nothing.
The rebate processors look at the bar code (Staples and Circuit City, for example) and duplicates are dumped.
Separate like items into groups and do multiple purchases at the register.
Even with different bar codes you still may have to abide the per customer per address rule, so send mom that rebate and hit her up for the cash. Be nice and deposit the rebate check for her.
5. Map your stores out so you don't have to back track and waste. Remember electronics stores first and other stores in succession based on cost savings
6. If possible, make teams to save time.
If you and wifey are going to the same store, split up and grab items in different section. If it's different stores, drive different cars.
Biggest savings items first. If you are in Circuit City, don't waste time grabbing a 50 pack of DVDs when that HDTV you wanted is in the same store with a $500 mark down (or rebate).
7. Fill your rebates out the NEXT FUCKING DAY if possible. Most manufacturers and stores know that most people will either fuck up with the rules, forget, or lose the receipt. If you are going to procastinate, PUT ALL THE SHIT IN ONE SPOT.
8. Many product require the UPC. Test your product to make sure it works before sending in the UPC. You may have to take the product back.
9. Stores that do online rebates are preferable. No crap to fill out and send in.
Staples has Easy Rebates and other companies are jumping into the fray.

Why do you say I have a system for everything?![]()
If there is an efficient way of doing things, do it that way unless your aim is to fuck around. Planning is essential for a smooth ride.![]()
