So since your guys's limit is like 400 bucks, I doubt you'd really be buying bigger electronic items anyway. Do go though, it's a GREAT deal.
Actually, plasma's are on the list. Depending on the deal I can find, it will be anything from a 50" Panasonic to a 65". The duty on them is only 5%, so my limit isn't a big deal. In fact, some Panasonics are actually made in Mexico, so Duty doesn't apply. Unfortunately, the manufacture location doesn't seem to be model specific, so you cant tell until you see the box if it was assembled in Japan or Mexico. Regardless, 5% isn't a big deal.

Are you saying that the ONLY electronics on sale that weekend are limited quantity door crashers? Something like Best Buy or Circuit City don't have weekend long sales? That would kill the trip in its' tracks.

I'm not sure yet. If weekend long sales on electronics exist, I'll need to go to Helena, Missoula, or Kalispell. There are Vann's stores there, and judging by the web prices I've found, they are quite competitive on Panasonic Plasma prices. Probably Helena would be the logical bet, since Great Falls is right on the way. If Kalispell has decent shopping, I could just go there instead, as it is closer. Is there a better shopping location than Great Falls?
