It used to be the time to buy TVs because they would get heavily discounted like 80% to make way for new stock. I got an xbox 360 for $50 on black friday. Kind of made sense, but I usually stayed home just to avoid the crowds unless I heard of a sweet deal.

I’m not super in touch with these things, but it feels like over the years the deals have gotten worse and worse. Now it’s like 10% off sales, or they mark stuff up 50% then give a price cut to balance it back to full price.

It’s bizarre to me people still get so invested in it. Like they have been wired to think “OK, time for the shopping day. We must go consume. Think of something to buy while I get my coat.” Maybe the deals are good but I’m just too disinterested to find out, idk.

I checked some TV prices here, just for fun and since I was in the city anyway. They doubled the price as compared to the regular online price and then put on a 50% discount.
