What is wrong with people?

[Jackass master]

Local news is showing folks camped out on the sidewalk in front of Best Buy waiting to get a TV on sale. They have been there since last Friday. That is just nuts. Wife talked me into going there one time for black Friday sales. When I went in and explained to her that after waiting over 2 hours she still had almost that long to go, she set her stuff down and we left. Have never gone again.

I dont go to them kind of specials either.

I went w/ my nephew to Old Navy last year for Black Friday. I found some decent deals, but nothing to scream about, and the line was wrapped around the store multiple times. I put my shit back up and walked out w/o buying anything. Went back a few weeks later and got better deals.

I also learned to just go online at Wal-mart and order whatever I want that's on sale for Black Friday. Hell of a lot easier.

Pathetic

Went to a Black Friday sale one year at Target and Kohls.. never again.

 

[Galvatron]

you can pay in the short term for something dressed as lamb but in the long term will it be worth it????

Nothing cheap will live up to expectations.

You can stop following me around the board with your little jabs.

Most places allow you, and in fact encourage you, to buy online nowadays, with even better deals.. All you gotta do is be a bit patient and wait for the shipping, which is usually 5 to 7 days at most..

It can be tough buying clothes on line, the sizes are not standard. every manufacturer sees the size a little differant

I did black Friday one time. Got a laptop, a desk top, and a TV. None of it was for me. Lol

I don't care how much money I can save, I never go shopping on Black Friday. I do online Black Friday shopping though.

Why do they call it " Black Friday " ?

That depends.. If its for me, no problem.. Personally I try not top get clothes for other people.. I am pretty picky about what i like and don't like and although I will be polite and accept clothes I always seem to get something that is just not me..

But if I do buy online, for my daughter or son, I let them pick what they want and know their sizes or in my daughters case let her tell me..

At worse its kinda like shopping for souvenirs from the vacation Dad took alone.

If it's something that should be tried on, than its not worth the savings and fact you may have to return it.. OK so instead of 50% off we only get 20%.. I rather get the right one the first time around

 

[Minderella]

I will never, ever, ever in a bazillion years go Black Friday shopping.

Way too many people.

Black Friday is like our Boxing Day Sales... Stupidity in motion.. :willy_nilly:

 

[FoxInSox]

Way too many people.

On their cell phones.. bumping into each other, acting as though it's the last, most important purchase they'll ever make in their lifetime.
Not to mention the traffic on the roads.

 

[The Man]

The same deals can usually be found throughout the year...as you stumble across them.
IMO they should start closing down places that are over maximum capacity of occupants.
Not so bright Saturday would be in follow.

 

[Springtime]

No, I would not do that no matter how good the deal is. Time is money. I believe companies offer good bargains from time to time.
