How many here will act like this on Black Friday?

Oh the humanity!!

On another note, how can the stores stop stealing of small items and clothes that can fit inside a large purse for example?

Can you imagine the security nightmare involved? Too many people to catch some thiefs for sure.

America, fuck yeah!

This is why I hate Christmas so much. It's all about materialistic BULL SHIT! And I fucking hate presents! I don't want shit! All I get is useless shit anyway. In fact I have two boxes of shit from two Christmas's ago! If I want something I can use I'll buy it.

Seems like the economy isn't as bad as they say...

I have never gone out shopping on Black Friday. I consider time to be our most precious resource, and Black Friday is the dumbest use of it that I could possibly imagine.

I hate black Friday with a passion. I don't know how you can have Thanskgiving Day where you're thankful for everything, and then Greed Friday right after it where all you want is new stuff.

Supid..


I dunno. I rather enjoy it. Needed a pressure washer. Lowe's put a really nice one on sale, $44 cheaper than Home Depot's "BF" price. Free shipping, too. Bought it.

Wanted a new set of headphones to replace dying Grado SR80's. Amazon put a set of ATH-80's on sale yesterday. Was going to buy them anyway, so the BF price was icing on the cake.

Chainsaw I was looking at dropped $80 today. Bought it.

Oh, never left my house. Everything I've bought will either be delivered Friday or be waiting for me to pick it up before close of business Sunday, although I shall have to drive 15 miles.

I like Black Friday. Sale prices on stuff I needed anyway and never have to leave the house.

That's the only way to do it. Lining up outside of stores is retarded. I don't even like driving around populated areas on thanksgiving weekend. People leave the house, and their brain stays home locked in a drawer.

Nope, I stay home the whole 4 days. Wed I stock up on whatever I need and then barricade the door.

I have decided that because of the stupidity of it all I am only doing my shopping from the seat I am in now.

The stores here are trying to do Black Friday to curb cross border shopping. Not sure how well it's working out for them because the deals aren't that great.

That right there looks like my worst nightmare. D:
I really do think a lot of people get off on it though.

The only time I would engage in something like that is if my family was starving to death and I was going after a limited supply of food and/or zombie invasion behind me. Acting like this, fighting in a crowd like that, the 1st world's version of a refugee camp, is disgusting.

The japanese were more civilized after the tsunamis and earthquakes and nuclear explosions.

I couldn't agree more. It's a disgrace.

Crazy...

It seems most are people trying to turn a buck (grabbing multiple of an item).

Retail businesses are often governed by your local state and county (and, if applicable, city) governments. If you have a problem with this kind of retail behavior, blame them [and yourself]. Not all states allow Black Friday Deals.
