I've always hated it, but at least in the past, I kind of understood it...pre-internet, pre-online resale...yeah, if you needed to save some coin, I get it.

But these douchebags camped outside the stores right now are idiots.

1) Most of the stores offer online deals now.
2) Most of the shit that's marked down, you can find at very comparable to Black Friday prices all year around if you know how to search properly.
3) Many stores have been offering online deals all week.
4) The money that you could have earned at a job instead of waiting in line for 12 hours for the store to open could allow you to pay normal price for whatever you were so anxious to buy.

Enjoy huddling under a blanket in the car, rubes.....I'll be in my nice bed.

eh. whatever people want to do.

i will be going to bonton and getting a few items which are going to be marked down over 60%. the only reason though is that i work until 4 am and bonton is on my drive home from work. i definitely would not wake up early or camp out to go to a sale.

My brain damaged wife, and sister in law are sleeping now so they can be at Toys R Us at midnight when it opens. Then they're going to hit the other stores as they open throughout the night. I don't get it.

You're giving black Friday shoppers a whole lot more credit than they deserve

All you after turkey day shoppers can kiss my ass. I am staying away from freeways, retail centers, and resturants in the area of retail centers.

I wish I didn't have to work in this fucking traffic.
I wonder if we will hear "trampling" stories on the news later.
10 bucks says some fat bitch at Wal-Mart gets pushed down at least.

I saw the Ukraine MILF in the elevator who lives in my building, she looked like she went 12 rounds with Pacquaio, she looked shot, black circles under her eyes and both hands filled with shopping bags

Homer: [gasps] Look at these low, low prices on famous brand-name
electronics!

Bart: Don't be a sap, Dad. These are just crappy knock-offs.

Homer: Pfft. I know a genuine Panaphonics when I see it. And look,
there's Magnetbox and Sorny.

I was actually thinking of checking out Black Friday for the 1st time, even if just as kind of like a tourist looking in on a foreign country so to speak.

Then I remembered how early you have to get up and said fuck it.

Then I looked in my bank account and said double fuck it.

I am a bit disappointed that there are not many reports of people being trampled and fights erupting inside of walmarts and toysrus.

I live next to Tyson's Corner Center and the combination of shoppers and road construction made me get the hell out of the area last night. Thankfully, the back roads were empty. I heard stories of people being unable to get out of the mall parking lot because traffic was so bad.
