First Black Friday in which I was actually looking at deals. Ended up buying a $250 laptop for $150 (after tax + shipping) - which should work very well with the Chromecast that we bought. Bought this right at the stroke of midnight-ish at Fry's... my first ever Black Friday purchase!!!
Also bought a new Surface Pro 2017 (with a type cover) because I sorely need a new computer. The current one warns me of low battery, even when it is plugged in, and the processor works at half speed half the time.
In addition, as one friend puts it - I also spent most of Thursday 'rebuying' stuff. I was basically looking online for things that I already bought to see if they were on sale.
With the Citi Price Rewind feature from Citi, we had bought a bunch of stuff ~50 days before Black Friday, so that if Black Friday comes and a deal was present, simply snipping a screenshot and uploading it to Citi should allow us to get the spread back. We'll see how this goes and whether Citi does in fact honor this. If they do, they will have elevated themselves to my most favorite credit card company list.
