Black friday

We went to walmart to get two DS lites one for each of my two son's. Also picked up some dvd's and a new printer. They were VERY unorganized at the one I went to. I wanted to go to lowes and get a table saw but after dealing with the walmart drama I decided I had enough and we didn't go to lowes. I went to lowes last year and it wasn't bad at all but I just had enough after dealing with walmart this year. Took care of a couple things for the kids and that was my main concern...

Never have never will, not worth for me especially seeing the way some people behave……………….holiday spirit at it’s worst in my opinion. :rolleyes:

I do not like shopping in general, and I hate waiting in line so it's not for me.

Get to do my shopping online as I always do.

I am very clausterphobic by nature, so standing in long lines and jostling with other shoppers is not very appealing to me. The only Black Friday shopping that I might do, is run to the grocery store for necessities, but that's about it.

I spent Black Friday cleaning rats, snakes, taking the dogs to the dog park for a nice long romp, watching some chick flicks and taking a nap!

I went to Target. It wasn't that bad, but I went pretty late at about 12-1. There wasn't much to look at, I just browsed like usual. We waited in line 2 years ago, and that was crazy. I thought they were going to find a dead body in the line cuz it was so thick.

We went out for the kids stuff today to. Got there christmas shopping done and I picked up a few dvds and some video games. Something to hold me over because I dont get my christmas present until after feb.

My mom used to take me out with her every year on Black Friday, and one year I watched two women fighting over the last Furby at Wal-Mart, until one actually punched the other in the face. I think I was 15 or 16, and that was the last time I've gone out for Black Friday.

The deals are good, but I absolutely can't stand being in crowds, and I avoid them like the plague...

...but fortunately my boyfriend doesn't mind. He picked up an Xbox 360 elite this morning around 5am. :D

Oh my god, that is scary. All for a Furby!!

I remember last year when someone in New York had a heart attack near the entrance of a Walmart. The paramedics couldn't even get to him because the people trying to get in refused to move aside, and people were actually trampling over him!! How crazy is that...

Someone got their face smashed in by a 32in tv. That was fun to watch. All i bought were some blu-ray movies. I love my samsung tv xD

That is so sad! Selfish people! Hmmmm let's ponder this for a moment: a person's life or a $100 savings on a PS3... that's a toughie, but I THINK we should pick a person's life... God! Its just so sad :(

I work at lowes so of course I was there all day, they literally have every employee working the floor on black Friday
