Deep Discount DVD's 20% off sale
Amazon/Warner TV sale and Subterranean Press 40% off sale
Tons of DVD sales (including lots of box sets) at Amazon
Season 1 DVD sets at $15.98 a pop and other DVD sales.
As Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving, when all sorts of insane sales occur) approaches, don't forget to look over the Black Friday circulars to see what deals are worth camping out all night and then fighting through a crowd for (in my opinion, that would be none of them, but I'm not exactly a people person). Look here or here for deals.
Over at Amazon, no major new sales, but there are a handful of low prices (clearly aimed at the pre-Black Friday gift buyers):
Music:
Continuum (John Mayer): $9.99 (47% off).
Not Too Late (Norah Jones -- note that it's a pre-order, and will be too late for $Winterholiday): $9.99 (47% off).
Awake (Josh Grobin): $9.72 (49% off).
Love, Pain, and the whole crazy thing (Keith Urban): $9.72 (49% off).
Once Again (John Legend): $9.72 (49% off).
Calendars (I normally just wait until January 1 and buy 'em at 50% off at the mall, but 40% discounts are pretty tempting):
The Book Lover's Page-A-Day Calendar 2007: $7.17 (40% off)
The Far Side Gallery 2007 Off-the-wall Page a Day Calendar: $8.39 (40% off), and all of Larsen's royalties go to Conservation International.
Mary Engelbreit's The Happy Side of Me 2007 Day-to-Day Calendar: $7.79 (40% off).
DVDs:
Lady in the Water (Widescreen): $17.98 (38% off)
Little Miss Sunshine: $15.98 (47% off)
The Ant Bully: $16.87 (42% off)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (widescreen): $14.99 (50% off)

The Thirteenth Tale: A novel (Diane Setterfield): $14.41 (45% off)
Thirteen Moons: A Novel (Charles Frazier): $15.04 (44% off). I guess the new literary fiction trend is books with "thirteen" and "a novel" in the title.
The Road (Cormac McCarthy): $13.09 (45% off). This one comes highly recommended by
robyn_ma (and sits on my wishlist as well).
We Few (David Weber and John Ringo): $4 (50% off).
Lost Girls (Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie): $47.25 (37% off). If anyone feels like buying me one super-expensive gift from my wish list, this would be the one. And it would piss of John Byrne, too!

The God Delusion (Richard Dawkins): $15.07 (44% off)
For One More Day (Mitch Albom): $11.74 (47% off)

Date: 2006-11-16 05:17 pm (UTC)That's pretty much my approach, as well. I might consider hitting Best Buy or Target because they're really close, and I'd be likely going for the less attactive items (dvds, as opposed to TVs), but only if I'm awake then.
Personally, we do about 90% of our holiday shopping either online, or in stores before Thanksgiving.

But, yay, I gots Psychonauts today!
