Holiday 2012: Part XI – What we Learn from Black Friday EDM Promotions

While we still have CyberMonday before us, the Black Friday weekend is coming to a close.  Most of the promoted items are known.  Here is my rough count of the number of different offers promoted over the weekend for the following tech categories:

As you can see, by my count Tablets had the highest number of different promotions over the weekend.

  • Black Media – 10 (remember when this was a perennial Black Friday item)
  • Camcorders – 24
  • Car Audio – 5
  • Computers: Desktop (36), Laptops/notebooks (110), Tablets (210)
  • Digital Cameras – 165
  • Digital Picture Frames – 12 (another perennial Black Friday favorite).
  • DVD and Blu-ray Players – 64
  • GPS – 58
  • Hard Drives – 69
  • MP3 Players – 151
  • Printers – 78 (felt like there were more printers promoted in 2012)
  • TVs – 195
