This is where I do my impression of Nostradamus, I will try and guess what the big bargains of the 20 Black Friday sales will be.

• 3D Tv
• Netbooks
• Washing machines
• Computer monitors
• Clothes

Let me explain my logic a bit here.

3D TV
Tv’s are constantly getting better while keeping the same price. A few years ago the big deal was a 32 inch TV for $500, now you can get a 40inch TV for around the same price.

So my guess is that rather than keep on offering bigger and bigger TV’s the companies are going to try and entice us into buying into a whole new market. Getting a bargain 3D TV may seem a great idea until you realize that your Blu Ray DVD player may not play the discs, you will need to buy 3d TV glasses and you will want to buy every movie you can find in the new format.

If you are an avid movie collector you could well end up with a film collection consisting of VHS,DVD,Blu Ray and Blu Ray 3d versions of some films!

Netbooks -netbooks/notepad computers/desktop computers all will be on sale but I think more places will try and get the absolute cheapest model of netbook they can. Last year kmart had a netbook that was around the $100 mark, will someone do a $99 netbook pc in the day after thanksgiving sale 2010?

Washing Machines – White goods are constantly getting cheaper and as forward facing models become more popular due to their energy efficiency and how darned cool they look they will come down in price.

Computer Monitors – I think that like TV offers we will see 24 and even 27 inch computer monitors on offer for Black Friday 2010 and especially on Cyber Monday 2010 . One of the big things that will get mentioned is how easy it is to run dual monitors using Windows 7, so you don’t need to get a new pc just get a new pc monitor.

Clothes – these are a consumable and we keep on consuming. I think we will see lots of $2 T Shirts at Walmart,Kmart and even Target in the 2010 day after thanksgiving sale . Add to this all the deals on jeans and shoes and I think clothes may well be the next big item for everyones trolley.
These won’t be the only items that will be deals to good to miss but I think these will be the higher end items that catch peoples attention and get lots of traffic.

If you look at the typical day after thanksgiving ad you will see huge TV’s, Washing machines, eco friendly dryers and just about every electrical item you can imagine.

The photos will be huge, the discounted price will be in a very bold font and then in the smallest print possible which you will need binoculars to see (they are on sale at your local sports shop which is handy) it will say something like “While supplies last” or maybe the worst one of all “Minimum 2 per store,” “No rainchecks” or “All items are available in limited quantities.”

If a car dealer put a advert out for a car at a silly price then as soon as he sold one the price went up we would all go nuts, he would be featured on every local TV consumer show yet if Sears, Walmart, Target and the rest of the big boys do it then its fine.

I don’t know of any possible fix I just know that it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, especially if I get up at 2am and line up for 2 hours in the cold.

There really isn’t any store that I can think of that isn’t doing some sort of sale during the day after thanksging long weekend. Even some of the small local stores are getting in on the sales fever.

Obviously the big chains have huge sales going on which feature just about every electrical item you can think of.

• Staples Black Friday Ads
• Kmart Black Friday Sales
• Best Buy Black Friday Sales
• Lowes Black Friday Ads

The important thing when you look at the sales is to make sure you are buying something you want, there is no point in buying something just for the sake of it.
