The only kind of store that I would dare set foot in on Black Friday is a grocery store. I figure everyone's eating leftovers and the grocery store should be pretty near deserted.
You're probably right. It's much easier to be a reseller today with smartphones and apps. Ebay, Marketplace, OfferUp, Craigslist, and others are pretty easy to use. Especially the local ones. Just snap a couple of pictures, write a quick description, and people will come right to your house, get the item, and leave the cash in your mailbox. You don't even have to leave your house to sell stuff now. And ebay lets you sell to buyers all over the world with relative ease.Oh, I understand that. One of my friends has such a business. He has connections with more than a few stores and auction houses in our state and adjoining ones to get heavily discounted/discontinued items and resell them. I was more posting in the context of "not everyone rushing out for those retail Black Friday deals are buying Holiday presents" . in fact, I would suspect that more retail arbitrage is happening on Black Friday sales than were in the past.
DD went out for the annual poinsettias from Home Depot. They used to be .99 but this year they’re $1.98. Not sure if they’re any larger than in the past.
Yep, that was the case when I went this morning.The only kind of store that I would dare set foot in on Black Friday is a grocery store. I figure everyone's eating leftovers and the grocery store should be pretty near deserted.
No. Even at $1.98 they are smaller. For years I used to get up early, go to HD and buy as many as they would let me. Then drop off two each to all my neighbors. Built a lot of good will just to know we were thinking about them. Today they were so small, we only bought four.
Looks like Hulu stopped their silliness with needing a different email and payment method to get the $1.99/month deal. I tried again this morning and it let me do it with my existing email and payment method. I was not playing their game, so glad I waited and tried again.
I’m not seeing this. But good for you!
I logged out of my existing Hulu account on all my devices, rebooted my laptop opened an incognito window and went to hulu.com and clicked get this deal. I logged in with an e-mail address I had used a few years ago and a debit card that had never been used previously on the Hulu account and it went right though. I had already cancelled my deal from last year although it was still active till Nov 26 and I signed up for the new account on the 24th. So try a new e-mail address or one that was not used last year and a credit/debit card never before affiliated with Hulu and it should work.I’m not seeing this. But good for you!
