Anyone go Black Friday shopping?
Feel free to share any experiences.

Three or four years ago, I went with a friend to Target. Wasn't too bad of an experience, so I decided to participate in Black Friday this year. No Wal-Mart, no Target, no Best Buy, and no Mall. I went to Academy Sports. I had a friend call me at 1am to tell me people were in line when the drove buy. The store wasn't opening until 5am, so I was going to head that way at 3am. Instead, I got there at 1:30, and there were about 25 people in line. I waited in my car until more people started lining up. I froze my hiney off from 2:20am until 5am.

Two good things I got from this experience. One, Christmas shopping for dad is done. Two, I am reminded why I don't do this, so probably won't again.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've been up for 20 1/2 hours, and I have to take my mom out for lunch for her birthday before meeting friends to watch the LSU/Arkansas game. I'm going to bed!

You have a very limited view of economics.

#1) The importing of cheaper alternatives to american made products actually helps the entire nation live well above where they would if we had to buy products made here by overpriced labor.

#2) Walmart will run many small businesses out of the market, but there is so much competition from stores like Target and Kmart, that it is moronic to think there will ever be a time that they can 'charge anything'. Additionally, websites like Amazon, and dollar stores further drive down the margins.

Now, if you want to keep manufacturing in the US, then you should adopt the fair tax, and eliminate corporate income taxes.

Cuz...newsflash.... the corporations aren't actually paying taxes. Those taxes come out of the pockets of the consumer, or the people who work for the company.

I did the WalMart thing last year. Didn't really have anything I needed, but my cousin wanted to grab a few things & I decided to go with him. Bad idea.

DVD/Blu-Ray rack was completely empty at about 12:10. Kids & adults were fighting for position with each other at the video game rack and the TV and laptop area was ****ing insane. So yeah, I'm not doing that again.

And I'm curious to know how many of these people are actually doing Christmas shopping and how many are just getting shit for themselves...

I'm pretty damn happy our family decided against giving any presents this year. Eliminates the need to spend the time & money freaking out over what to get anyone. Plus, that jackass cousin who only shows up with the family once per year at Christmas to get his presents before he leaves won't show up. **** yeah.

Woke up at 10, at work at 11, bought a 23" Samsung SyncMaster monitor for $129 from my office chair at 12. That's my Black Friday story.

I heard some stories from a couple of people in line behind me that had gone to the earlier sales. From what they said, most places had organized chaos. Target only let 60 people in at a time, etc. A guy in line was reading something on his phone about a few people getting physical over people letting people cut in line at Gordman's but that's about it. Of course, I slept from 6-10:30 this morning, and just went to lunch with my mom, so I haven't seen or heard any newscasts.

Also, the guy behind me in line said that he was about 200th in line at Best Buy. He went in, got the tv he wanted, and was out within about 20 minutes. He was 200th in line and was able to still get the items that were available to those dumb ****s who camped out since Monday.

When you figure up how much time people put into waiting outside, they are actually getting ripped off.

You can get this at Macy's but you need to hurry before they are all gone.
