The member perk for this month relates to access to the Black Friday sale.
Does the TD Black Friday sale happen in October? Or is there effectively no member bonus for this month?

@Tittielover134 Yup, they started doing the sale in October maybe a year or two back so that they can get ahead of the actual Black Friday rush and shipping nightmare.

@Olivia Yeah I'd like to second this. I'm assuming it starts within the next week but I'd like confirmation

@Luster Actually it kinda makes sense to me. If they give us a specific date on when one of their biggest sales of the year is, they would basically be killing their order volume in the weeks leading up to it.

@Tittielover134 As a platinum member I do not have access as of roughly 1 AM Wed. So it isn't open until at least Thursday mid day for general public? Assuming my admittedly bad math is correct. A little frustrating to have to check in constantly though. I admit to having in the past been a once a year shopper on that BF date but this past year I've spent more than probably the last decade combined (thank you A10 Piston) with no regrets having done so. Generally the sales throughout the year are fair and in some cases with the BOGO half off sleeves that's a 25% discount and I'm pretty sure even the BF sales of the past maxed at 30% on most items. I once kept track on the old forums and someone picked it up for a year or so but I think given inflation etc. there's little point in comparing too much from year to year now. Products have changed a lot and the sheer number of items is way more than a decade ago as well. Anyway, there's a 500 word monologue you weren't looking for tonight lol.

@TimmyTucker No, I completely agree. It feels very weird as a shopper to have to wait around and constantly check in. Not enjoying it.
