Amazon is a Geek’s Best Friend This Holiday Season

Posted on the 21 November 2013 by Geekasms @geekasms

Amazon has released their Black Friday plans today and they are stepping up their game.  Starting Sunday, November 21st, Amazon will be releasing deals every 10 minutes all week long.  There are tons of items for you or the geek in your life including new TV’s, video games and movies. 

I haven’t stepped foot in a store on Black Friday in 10 years and Amazon is a big reason for that.  Their lightning deals sell out really fast, but I’ve had great luck getting on a waiting list and still getting the deal in the past.   Some of the deals this year include a 32″ TV for $98, Batman Arkham Origins for $34 and a variety of movies up to 80% off.  Check out the release below along with links: 

SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nov. 21, 2013– (NASDAQ:AMZN) – Today, Amazon.com announced Black Friday deals will start a day earlier this year, beginning on Sunday, November 24, with new daily deals – as often as every ten minutes.
