Black Friday....

Got to love it. Nothing like a 4AM-6PM shift in retail! Makes you want to drive off a bridge. Sleep is over-rated anyways.

Everyone that is getting up at the crack a$$ of dawn to go shopping... Your insane. Hope you get what you go out for.

Have fun and try not to beat anyone with merchandise or run them over with a cart and or car.

As for me I will be on the other end of things watching everyone rush around and act like fools. It is kinda entertaining for the first 10-15 mins.

I hope that most of you are sleeping in and letting the wife/girlfriend deal with the chaos.

Heh - a WalMart worker was trampled to death @ 5AM when wild-eyed shoppers rushed the door and trampled the poor worker to death.

Glad I don't shop at WalMart - holy !

It's a black Friday for that workers family :(

This is why I went online and did my shopping. You get the same prices, and get delivered to the store for free, or some places have really low shipping, sometimes free shipping.

Yep, got my savings and the stuff I wanted. i didn't get a couple of things I wanted for Keely, but I can get them later, just not as good of a price. But, I saved some money today...all from online! LOL

F*** black friday.  it seems the whole point is just for cheap shopping after turkey day.  F*** that.  seriously.  just F*** it.

me and my family always practice late christmas just cause of s*** like that.  wait till after the new year, and make a fun shopping trip of it.  then, everyone is gauranteed to get what they want, and it will all be had for cheap.

F*** the mentality in this country.......everyone is gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have gotta have

F*** THAT!!

people of this country need to be more like me.  i'm plain happy with old s***.  my laptop (and the one i have coming in a week or so) are old by pretty much any standard, but play the games i like and surf the web and watch movies, my cars are old and the parts (other than maintenance) are not likely to be new when i buy them.  i live in a tiny dwelling, with my clothes, tools, books, magazines, and my car.  and computers of course.

 this stupid a** country.....

my heart goes out to the corporate wage slave who died this morning from it all....
