TJMaxx Sells A Very Limited Number of iPads to Get More Traffic on Black Friday

It's true.  TJMaxx did have iPads at a few stores.  According to USA-Daily they did have or will have about 80 of them.  Nationwide.  So was this a traffic-ing ploy?  Absolutely!  Will it help them have more customers on Black Friday?  Probably!  I guess I wish that everything was more upfront.  It would have excited me just as much for them to say.  "On Black Friday, a few of our select stores will be carrying a very limited number of iPads."  I would have been very excited for the few who got one.  But the secrecy, and the ambiguity for the purpose of getting more people through their doors kind of offends me.

On the other hand, it has increased their traffic, both on the web and in the stores...and if I'm honest I got a lot more traffic because of it too.  So, thanks TJMaxx! :)

UpDate of the iPad for TJMaxx

  It seems there is a lot of confusion regarding the TJ Maxx iPad deal.  Some sources say it will begin on Black Friday for most participating stores.  Others say it will only be on the east coast.  Most believe it to be an extremely limited offer for the purpose of causing high traffic at tjmaxx stores everywhere.

I guess we'll have to wait until Black Friday to find out exactly where this deal is good, but it is definitely true though it may be EXTREMELY limited...

16GB WIFI iPad for $399!!!!!!

I verified this through the TJMaxx!!  You can save $100 by purchasing the iPad at TJMaxx.  It's rumored that Marshalls has the same deal.  I would definitely call your local store before heading out, as I'm sure these are flying off the shelves.  I did call my local TJ Maxx and confirmed that although they had none, some stores are carrying iPads for $399. Let me know if you snag one.
