Sears.com Slammed by Black Friday Traffic

Despite the dire predictions of a poor retail season, it appears that consumers are still looking, or at least trying to look, for Black Friday deals. Sears.com was inaccessible for hours on Black Friday, and other retail sites experienced slowdowns and outages as well.

I got a great deal on a new washing machine there last year, but didn't see how good the deals were there this year.

It's a good place here to buy the best TV's - and tools of course. We just have a smallish catalog store - appliances, tools, and electronics is about all they have.
