Black Friday Deals

[sanddrag]

So, what super-hot deals are you looking forward to? What stores are you going to, and what time will you get there? I've never really even been out of the house on Black Friday before, so I'm excited about giving it a try. I'm willing to sit out there all night for my spot in line, but I can't figure out what to do with my chair when the doors bust open for business.

Chair? Wimp.

(Personally, I wait until a little later in the morning--this usually yields good results.)

Honestly, I haven't seen any of the deals, since we don't get the Sunday paper. So hopefully my mom saved the flyers from the paper, or they'll put out a bunch later this week.

I haven't seen any ads either, but there's a few websites that have supposedly gotten a hold of them and are listing what deals there are doing to be. Don't the official Ads come out on Wednesday or Thursday? I didn't see anything too fantastic in today's paper.

Gah! You're not supposed to tell anybody about those! How am I supposed to get my Walmart laptop if everyone goes to get one?

Black Friday is always the day after thanksgiving, it is when the X-mas gift buying season really starts, and stores celebrate by having huge one time sales.

I have to work black friday I have to be at staples at 5:30 am to open up at 6:00 am. I don't think we will be too busy cause they just opened a best buy 3 days ago.

Black Friday is the bussinesst shopping day of the year, the day after Thanksgiving. It gets its name becuase its the most profitable sale day, which brings retails out of the red (lost money) into the black (profit).

The Best Buy near my house brought in $500,000 last year on black friday alone.

I am disappointed that Radio Shack is not offering some promotion for the Vex kits and accessories. It seems like they're not taking advantage of a great opportunity to get the kits under more trees and menorahs and things this holiday season.

You WILL be busy. If the Best Buy is next door in the same place, you will be even busier.

I know I've planned what I wanted and driven to a CompUSA that was 20 minutes further then the one closest to me because it was much closer to a Best Buy. I ended up with all that I wanted from both places, and was done with my shopping before 7:30am.

My brother is trying to convince me on this Black Friday plan where we wouldn't get more than 3 hours of sleep Thursday Night. I think he's crazy.

Just think of it as a FIRST weekend sleep schedule.. 3 hours is more than enough.
