Echo Screen Live #17: Is Black Friday Obsolete? (11/21/12)

We’re live every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month!

Black Friday – the media loves to hype it to the gills.  But beyond the deals, lines, and people stampeding over each other for $5 off an HDTV – is there a better way?  Has the “holiday” become passe?

Plus, we’re bound to talk the Wii U launch and Xbox 720 specs, so come join us!

    I won’t be able to view this one live but will you guys finally settle the eternal question?

    What makes a better breakfast? Waffles or pancakes?

    I also won’t be able to attend live, since I’ve got festivities with family tonight. On the subject of whether or not Black Friday is obsolete, my sister and I got $220 off regular price on a lenovo laptop today (Wed. Nov. 21) at a big box store. No crowds, no lines, no vouchers, and there was actually a sales associate available to help us. So we’re happy and I’ll be home and content in a couple days when a large percentage of the population is going crazy. Eat that, Black Friday!

    Oh, yes, and I think waffles make the better breakfast, but I eat pancakes more often.

    I never get to watch these live as I live in Great Britain and the times are all messed up. It’s very annoying that you lot in America get the Wii U 12 days before us in Europe.

    Happy Thanksgiving CotGW! I would have made it but I was helping with some holiday prep yesterday and totally forgot. So I spent my evening baking pies, cleaning my room, and watching the original Ninja Turtle movie. Cowabunga!
