Black Friday Walmart 2009
November 5, 2009
Black Friday Walmart 2009:Black Friday is starting early at Walmart this year. How early you ask; Saturday November 7th early!
That’s right this Saturday Walmart stores will offer the HP Pavilion G60-519WM Entertainment Laptop for $298 in stores while supplies last. For $298 you get a 15.6? screen, Intel Celeron processor, 3 GB of RAM, 250 GB hard drive and a Lightscribe DVD burner with Dual Layer support.
One thing to note is that this notebook uses an Intel Celeron processor rather than a faster dual-core or Core 2 duo processor; but it will handle everyday items like browsing the web, managing your photo collection and working on documents.
Just like last year’s Black Friday discounts on the HP G 60 series of notebooks this model number, 519WM, is exclusive to this discounted version of the HP G 60 notebooks. If you want to compare prices and specs you should look for similarly equipped HP Pavilion G 60 notebooks; rather than looking for the exact model at other retailers.
Similar notebooks at Walmart are in the $450 dollar range, and given the inclusion of Windows 7 and OK hardware, this deal is good for someone looking to do basic computing.

Black Friday Ads 2009..Walmart Black Friday 2009:When should 2009 Black Friday Ads appear online? Some alleged 2009 Black Friday Ads appearing online today are fake, reports Reuters.
In 2008, LALATE profiled the deployment of Black Friday ads from several national retailers. Whereas you should not see official ads online until that Friday, you can in fact see official teasers from retailers starting as early as the Monday before.
In the case of Apple, LALATE profiled an official teaser in 2008 put on the Apple website days before BF. It read “Come back to the Apple Online Store this Friday for a special one day only Christmas shopping event. You’ll find dozens of great iPod, iPhone and Mac gift ideas, all with free delivery.”
As you can see, three things worked:
1. The notice came directly from the retailer rather than some 3rd party website.
2. The notice in fact gave a suggestion of which products might get Black Friday discounting.
3. The information was on one website and only one website – Apple’s.more
