+Lathe26 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 What will YOU be picking up? I'll be picking up a turkey drumstick and a glass of red wine and/or a good beer and/or eggnog with vodka. I avoid shopping on Thanksgiving so that fewer people in retail need to work on a holiday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastRobPlus Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 The handheld Sega is $40 at BB&B. Looking at their ad, they seem to be making a play at becoming Radio Shack Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I plan to swing into my local DG tomorrow morning to grab both the Inty and CV Flashbacks. That's just too good of a deal to pass up, glad I've waited it out thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I avoid shopping on Thanksgiving so that fewer people in retail need to work on a holiday. Exactly! I have been telling everyone that. I personally don't work retail but I am NOT going shopping on thanksgiving! It's downright bs. People have family's and they should be home not manning a store so some rich POS can make more $$! If people don't go they will cut this BS out and let people have the time off and CLOSE! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freewheel Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) I'll be picking up a turkey drumstick and a glass of red wine and/or a good beer and/or eggnog with vodka. I avoid shopping on Thanksgiving so that fewer people in retail need to work on a holiday. Yeah but you can save ten bucks. TEN BUCKS! Surely that's worth more than human dignity. Seriously though, perhaps if you guys had laws that favour human beings instead of the ultra rich... up here people generally love working on holidays because you can earn time-and-a-half, double time, or sometimes more. It's a hell of a bonus for people on the lower end of the pay scale. As someone in IT who is specifically exempted from overtime laws, I'm almost jealous of retail employees. At least they get compensated for missing out on Hallmark Days. Edited November 27, 2014 by freeweed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intellfan Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I went to dollar General and picked up two more Intellivision flashbacks for 28 bucks cant beat that price i now have 5 lol but i am giving 4 away for Christmas presents 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SabertoothRetro Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 We don't have a Dollar General in my area but I went to their site and picked up the Intellivision and Colecovision FBs. $61 with tax. Not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I picked up one (Intellivision) from Dollar General this morning. They also had Atari and Coleco. I kinda wanted the Genesis one, but no luck. I went around 9am and only saw one other guy....who was buying 144 cans of Pepsi His cart was totally full of Pepsi!

+Lathe26 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Anyone who wants to get Dollar General Intellivision Flashbacks (and is OK with paying a little more than today's sale), there are some on eBay. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=231404955031&alt=web Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Just sent some off to family members via the DG website. Free shipping, even to multiple addresses, and another $5 off coupon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tep392 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I just picked up the Intellivision Flashback! I didn't go to DG because it's about a 1/2 drive and I'm too busy at home. But I was able to pop into the Walgreens while running an errand, and they have it on sale for $35. They also had the Atari and both Genesis units (console and portable). I didn't play the Inty much as a kid. None of my friends had it, so I only played in the store kiosks. I'm looking forward to exploring all these games.

+Lathe26 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Avoiding retail is good, but shopping on eBay today is okay? Computers don't need the holiday off. The seller doesn't need to do anything today. Post offices, UPS stores, and FedEx stores are all closed today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 ... also, the eBay post was a consession for the folks who the folks who have to buy the Dollar General version today. It impacts fewer folks on the holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I asked the lady at Dollar General about working today. She and the other manager worked today so they could give all the normal employees the day off. She worked the day shift and will be eating dinner with her family. The other manager is working the night shift and ate lunch with his family. She seemed ok with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
