With the upcoming shopping season I think we need a shopping forum for actual deals that aren't being manipulated, like the "deals" you see on Reddit and similar forums. I doubt too many paid corporate shills are hanging around on the Farms.
Yes, the forums in general are hostile towards Black Friday. But, when you have a large family, a limited budget, and you're the one shopping for Christmas presents every year, you might start thinking differently about the sales offered on Black Friday. Every dollar counts, and Black Friday sales can mean more than big screen TVs and Walmart stampedes. Those sales may be the difference between getting nice presents for your family that they actually asked for, or getting them some cheap knock-off that turns out to be broken or defective because you bought it without doing the research before the holiday.
