Black Friday explained for dummies [1000x999 - 78KB]

When I worked at best buy, I found out that the big sale items were not regularly stocked products, but rather "new" sku's. Which tells me they were made with much lower quality standards than normal products

Generally though, if you don't fuck with it much, most of those items will work just fine.

As others said, cheaper products will sometimes have less features, quality, etc. Many large store chains that have their own product line do this.

It's not just nigger Friday, it's par for the course on most "sales". You usually only see any real discounts when something gets updated or discontinued.

Some states ban the practice. In California it's illegal to advertise a "regular" price that wasn't actually the selling price for at least 2 weeks prior to the "sale."

I've noticed for years now that with every mention of one of our holidays, Thanksgiving, they have to also mention Jewish holidays such as Black Friday - symbolizing the Jews participation in the black death that wiped out a lot of Europeans.

Except maybe for that cheap hunting rifle at bass pro they do every year. Yeah, it's a rebate, but a $250 rifle that shoots straight works for me. Literally only deal I've seen that I've considered. Only problem is I can't decide if I want .243 or creedmoor. I bought the T/C .308 a few yrs ago for same deal, shoots very well.

My 2 cents mate. 6.5mm is the round of the future.

Which means most common so cheap and available.

When I worked at Cabela's those super discount guns were how we got you in the store. Normally we would only get something like 5-10 of them in period. Most folks would still buy a bunch of crap because they didn't want to walk out empty handed after standing in line for 8 hours. Usually the best deals were on clothing during seasonal change over and we needed to make space.

You mean when they started getting in the shorts and flip flops in December and by January you can't find a God damn coat to save your life?

You were also talking about a rebate witch isn't quite the same thing. That's usually something the manufacturer was doing and was promoted through the store. It can also be part of what's known as a loss leader deal. Take a small hit to get you there then try and make it up with overpriced accessories. Like hey, you can use that rebate on ammo, holsters, slings, hunting gear, ECT.
