Last Friday, we asked you to Create a "leaked" Black Friday ad or sign that goes to extremes to get people shopping. Volunteer judges Josephus and shan24 looked through all your junk mail, newspapers and annoying pop-up ads, and will be shopping at the following locations this Friday morning before the sun comes up:
First Place
- $100
solius - Bagpipe Hero - solius gave us pause as we set our alarms for very late Thursday night, by showing us why Best Buy is doing so well in business, with the genius of selling the bagpipe hero so cheaply.
Second Place
- $50
gbicer - Free Wiimote - gbicer encouraged us to confess to having thrown a series of remotes at a series of monitors displaying a series of increasing bit complexity games.
Third Place - $20
brianw1957 - Bar Code - brian1957 left us stunned by what the cutting edge design shops are putting out these days, and left us to guess where to show up on Thursday just before midnight.
Honorable Mention
Sonan - Target/WalMart - Sonan continued to dumbfound with this weird meta ad, a combination of print and Web that we can't quite wrap our heads around. Where's Bucky Cat when you need him?
stereo3d - Zombies - stereo3d gave us reason to avoid the Black Friday shopping dilemma for everyone with only 3 presents to buy, provided those three people actually need another brown Zune.
drsusan35 left us pretty confident about her specialty without mentioning it once.
mercurystar78 gave us to ponder how soon that gasoline might tempt us into Sears
faithcoaching left us wondering who might want twins on purpose?
plinth - The Dog Gets It - plinth left us thankful he isn't into cutthroat business practices.
Orcrist42 brought us up short (!) with his heartfelt expression of his personal obsession with getting into shape. Remember, big O, its just twenty minutes a day, and you too can look like this!
Finally, >xtalviper incited us to search through google for that famous outlet, the AJ Superstore.We're left wondering who Mr Thorton might be, and how he survives with blood that looks like pink pee. lest we forget, xtalviper should start looking for a monkey prize in the mail.
