Yea it's sad. I saw on the news some folks fighting over an HDTV at a Walmart. I don't get why these stores advertise these 'Super Specials' and than in fine print mention, "Only 10 Available".

That's crazy. I had to go into work early yesterday morning for a couple hours and there were already people in line at Best Buy waiting for stuff.

Because its a way to get tons of customers in the store when otherwise, the store would be dead

I read a story this morning about a Wal-Mart in California. Apparently, people started arguing over an item before they even started the sale, and someone pulled pepper spray and juiced about 20 people. No, pepper spray isn't fatal, but if you've been hit with it, you feel like you want to die. It's terribly painful.

Hope they catch the lady who pepper sprayed.

People should go to the Target I was at today. It is in a weird location and was not busy, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon I could have had my choice of any of the "door buster" deals they had advertised. It was like the twilight zone when compared to most Targets on black Friday.

Seriously are the deals really worth hurting another person for...

This is why I like staying safe at home, warm, and shopping online. No bs

I greatly dislike going out on black Friday. My mother just really wanted to go but like I said I lucked out and found a not busy Target. I normally do most of my shopping the week before Christmas due to my ability to procrastinate to the extremes.

I just tried to go to a friends house by a local mall who's a good 5 minutes from me, took me 20 minutes to get there... My fault for not looking at Google Maps first before leaving though...

Normally I don't shop for Christmas til two weeks before this year was some good deals online. Plus this year the rest of my family got iPhones (blah), so it was easy to get gifts online, and they were all on sale:hail:
