I remember the good ol days when black friday was actually a single day event, and cyber monday actually had real deals and not faked 30% off 60% markup.

I have to remind myself to buy things I need before November because then they bump the prices and they don't go back down until February.

1 TB 970 Evo SSD selling for $140+ on major retailers right now, even though I bought one a while back for $40 (and even that was lucky because they inflated to $80 anyway).

Also rip Newegg
