I just don't understand why people line up and do this shit every single year. No sale is worth that.

This is why other countries hate us.

I can sit on my ass, all day, any day. Go to many websites or ebay and find better deals than you will find in these stores. And you know what, they even deliver it to my house. People are fucking morons sometimes.

Stanley Nickels 11-26-2008 02:52 AM

I can tell you, with 100%- guaranteed- certainty, that if Apple has any sales on Friday, they will be the same online as they are in the retail store. For your sake, stay away from the Plaza or Leawood stores.. it's not worth it!!

Same thing I do every year. Sleeping late from a Tryptophan and beer induced coma.

I refer to my prior statement from last year:

The worst are the doorbuster computers that barely have enough horsepower to run the OS and people expect to be able to play Crysis or Bioshock on them. Dipfucks. :shake:

This years Black Friday sales are the worst I've seen, ever. Last years sales weren't that good either, but quite a few items on this years list are cheaper now than the "sale price." The only item that sticks out would be the Arcade Xbox 360 w/ Free Guitar Hero III bundle at Walmart. You can buy a refurb 20 gig HDD from MS for $30.

If you still feel the need to go out and suffer, here are a few tips.

-It's going to be cold, so dress in plenty of layers. I'd strongly suggest wearing multiple pairs of socks, sweatshirt+coat, etc.
-Bring a friend. Sitting in line just playing pocket pool for hours in the cold makes the time go by very slowly.
-Make friends with people in line. This comes in handy so you can save your spot in line while you go out back and take a dump in a gatorade bottle, or whatever.
-Don't take any shit from the asshat that lets their entire family cut in line at the last moment. This seems to happen every year.
-Hit up the lesser popular chains like Radioshak, Staples, etc. The lines are a lot less pathetic than places like Best Buy.

I haven't actually participated in the Black Friday hysteria in forever, but I did wait in line for a Wii when they first came out. In general, I'd strongly suggest avoiding it altogether.
