Enter the "Door-Buster" Deals

Tis the season to be shopping, so we here at Side-by-Side Geek thought we'd get into the game as well, and give you a little bit of help finding some of the more interesting deals.  There's a whole load of "deals" going on out there, and it can be difficult to tell which are worth the wait outside the store in the cold, and which are really just old hardware with a slightly lower sticker price slapped on it.  We've searched the web high and low to try to help you figure out where to look for deals, and which "deals" are as good as they say they are.  Here's a list of sources that we find to be most interesting:

• CNET News' article: Rating the Black Friday laptop doorbuster deals, by Dan Ackerman
• Gather.com's article: Truth About Black Friday and Cyber Monday, by Frugal Yankee
• CBS's Money Watch article: How to Bag a Bargain on Black Friday, by Kathy Kristof

It can be a jungle out there, so be careful!  Remember, behind every great "deal" is profit for the retailer.
