If I was still a drinker, I would have gotten the flask.  It's nice!  I did get a mess of decks, about a brick's worth of various models.

Congratulations appear to be in order - Lalita, you must have hit your 2,000th post today!  Yay!

I'm having a thought - instead of cluttering the specials topic with who got what, let's move the conversation to the Recent Acquisitions topic instead.  Anyone looking for deals later in the season will have to wade through enough stuff and nonsense as it is.

Even the Black Friday coupon code is over at Theory11, some of their decks are still discounted 15% if you add them to your cart. It'll be on for a bit longer before they reset them back to now.
Black JAQK, Medallion, White Artisan, Silver Monarch, Red Monarch, Black Artisan, Monarchs are all 5.91$ a deck, so bulk discount price even on a single deck.

I found this in my email this morning =) a mad dash of buying from 4-7PM EST tomorrow. The email continues on with information about the Messado Linking Rings, a Single Needle by Wayne Houchin, the Pure Smoke System, the Gaff System, and finally Angel Z: The Ultimate Guide. So I am assuming that these will be involved in the deals.
Just thought I would share it with you =) this will be done through Facebook tomorrow.

I don't think those products will be apart of it, those are just the latest deals and releases they have.

Anyway, penguin magic have added more titles to their "5 for $99" offer. There's some great titles available.
Also, although this isn't really a holiday promo, coterie1902 have a deal on where if you spend $100 you get a Zenneth Kok Black & White New Fan Back for a discounted price of $25.

http://ammarmagic.com

They sent out a correction late this afternoon.  The coupon code is only good for one of these items - not one of each, just one of one of them:

Mike Rogers Chop Cup, 1"
Final Load baseball
Fab Fruit

and the code expired MAY 1st rather than July 1st.  Of course, the fine print says, as it does for most such sales, that you can't combine this discount with another discount.

LATE EDIT: THE BLUE CROWN CYBER MONDAY SPECIALS

Sale on Black NOCs for $5 continues through today.

Pandrea's Stash - get 3-, 6- or 12-packs of Alex's decks, anything from Crown Decks to Jerry's Nuggets and anything in-between.  Just checked the site, the 6- and 12-packs are already sold out while the three-packs are $15 each, a steal.  If they come back in stock, 6-packs are $25 and 12-packs are $40 - even bigger steals; 50% or more LESS than Dan and Dave are charging for a similar deal!  http://thebluecrown.com/cyber-monday-apstash.html

There's a deal on ten videos by Alex covering classic and original sleights as well; $2 each and only available today: http://thebluecrown.com/ap-tips-tricks.html

Overall, it's not too shabby if I do say so myself...

I got a 3 deck pack from AP stash... There are plenty of decks I don't have and at 21 dollars, including shipping, seemed like a pretty good deal.

Edit: Fixed the link to Pandrea's stash deal for you Don.  ;)

I'm not having any luck checking out. Looks like their website can't handle the traffic. Oh well, off to spend money elsewhere.

Now sold out. Hope they spend some of that profit on a decent web server for next time.

At least you got that far. It appears that many folks never could get the checkout system to work, according to FB posts that I read. TBC also reported earlier this evening that they were having problems with their site, especially the checkout process. They appear to have decided to go ahead in spite of having a broken website. I was going to add my two cents to the griping at their FB page, but it's probably to no avail, and plenty of others have already complained. None of their other decks impress me, even at $3/each.

I knew I was leaving one out.  And re the Stash: Wha?  How long did it last, an hour?  90 minutes?

Did anyone here manage to purchase an AP stash last time round? If so, please share what decks you received. I missed out both times due to time difference  :-[

AP stash was gone the moment I was awake so that's 7am UK. Really a shame I didn't really get a chance :')
Did anyone else get one?

I'm still scratching my head as to how AP's stash deal was already sold out before Cyber Monday even began on Monday, December 2nd @12:01am.  :-\
