But also, even though it's almost half off, $250 is a lot of money to pay for a vacuum cleaner (for me anyways). But I really really really want a Dyson (and it's PINK!) so who knows.

But yeah, Black Friday is nuts. Pre-Thanksgiving "4 Day" sales are where it's at - prices almost as good as Black Friday (sometimes better!) with none of the crowds. I got a 32" Bravia for $498, so I'm happy. I also got a kickass LEGO Castle at Walmart for half price. That was *supposed* to be for Black Friday, but if they put them in a place where they're accessible for (really tall) customers, and if they mark them down ahead of time, well then they can't blame people for (ahem) buying them in advance...

and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong
