When Brandon Vanderstelt and his wife set up camp 10 days ahead of Black Friday outside of a North Texas Best Buy with a tongue-in-cheek “Occupy Best Buy” sign decorating their tent, their intent was to be first in line for Best Buy’s Black Friday deals.
“It’s an $800 TV for $200, so we figured people would be out here really early, and that’s a deal we didn’t want to pass up,” he said. ”We get about 100 questions a day and about 100 pictures,” Vanderstelt said. “Everybody talks to us. It’s fun.”
However, not everyone shares the Vanderstelts’ lighthearted view of Black Friday as news surfaced this week indicating that the Occupy Wall Street movement may take their protest to America’s malls on Black Friday to protest corporate greed.
While Adbusters’ “Buy Nothing Day” has been around for twenty years now, the momentum of the Occupy movement combined with growing frustration over the surge of midnight openings and mediocre deals may be enough to form an entirely new form of Black Friday mob. The idea is certainly gaining momentum, as evidenced by the establishment of websites such as StopBlackFriday.com, whose stated goal is to “Hit the 1% where it hurts – in the wallet.” Adbusters is largely credited with sparking the Occupy Wall Street movement.

ULTA’s Black Friday ad was released today. The 2-page ad (presented here as a single page) is presented as a two day sale and notes that all stores will be open “by 6am”, which implies that individual locations may open their doors sooner, so be sure to call ahead to confirm if you plan to show up early. 
Much of the ad is devoted to free gifts from brands like Calvin Klein, Ed Hardy and Elizabeth Arden. We count six different free gift options, plus a 5 for $5 mix and match on a range of small items normally priced under $7 such as lotions and single-use facial treatments, and a buy 2 get 2 free mix and match on an equally wide range of bath and cosmetics items normally priced between $3 and $9.50.
Some highlights from the ULTA Black Friday Ad include:
- ULTA Artist Blockbuster Palette for $16.99
- Free 1 oz. “hope in a jar” with any $50 philosophy purchase
- Ultra CHI Red 1″ Flat Iron or Dryer for $74.96 with coupon

Target is rumored to have released a 12-item Black Friday Doorbuster preview. Since this does say it is a “preview” we think they will announce some even hotter deals when the 2011 Target Black Friday Ad is officially released. We haven’t seen an actual scan for this yet, so it may end up being like the rumor we saw in October. We want to point out that several of the rumors in October ended up on this list, but with lower prices– so this could end up being a great preview of what is to come!
Some highlights from this 2011 Target Black Friday Doorbuster Preview include:
- Element 40″ 1080p 60Hz LCD HDTV for $265
- Westinghouse 46″ 1080p 60Hz LCD HDTV for $298 (Listed October)
- Amazon Kindle Keyboard 3G with Special Offers for $85
- Nikon L105 12.1MP Digital Camera with 3″ LCD Screen for $99.99
