Well... Keep up with the leaked black friday prices... You can buy the product the week before and then show up on black friday at about 8am after everyone is gone, and, tadaaaaaa, price match...
Generally speaking (aka, Not 100% of the time), Black Friday deals are new products that haven't seen the light of day on a shelf before Black Friday. So brand new UPC codes, packaging changes, or in some instances, a brand new product. This prevents this kind of "solution" from being utilized. Not only do retailers win big on BF, but the manufacturer's do as well.

andyg8180, you are wrong. The Black Friday items at Best Buy do not qualify for price matching. Its not fair for those who wait in line.
