never been kicked out, but that's because when I'm looking to buy something, I know what I want to get

Ah lol... wow.
Wait there's an old person bar here that closes that early, maybe before then even.
So maybe you went to one of those. :eek:

But really how long were you there then?

like 8 pitchers long... enough to know i was there, but not enough to know i should leave...lol

A local convenience store will kick you out if you spend 30 seconds in front of a magazine rack. Seriously, you don't even have to touch a magazine. If your feet stop moving the owner will start screaming about the place not being a library.

They use Magnum Force as a training video.

When i was broke and in college, my brother and I used to hang out in Ultimate Electronics all day. We'd take DVDs from displays and watch them in their theater room for hours. nobody cared and nobody said anything. One day when we went to watch some movies some salesman was demo-ing a new hi-def projector - 720p (this was 2000-2001)...we were blown away!!!!

I ended up spending thousands in that store once I had money...ultimate electronics went out of business...don't think best buy would do the same.

Wait. 4 hours at OfficeMax and 12 hours at Fry's? In the store or in the parking lot researching the tire's on people's cars? How many were inflated to sidewall?

he can't be serious, spending one hour at those stores is mind numbing and soul crushing. big box air is stale and ick.

In the store.. Checking people's tire pressure isn't useful unless I can inform them of their under-inflated tires.
