Black Friday Stories Thread

[eric]

I was wondering if anybody had any good Black Friday stories, either from online or first-hand? *Also if you got any really great details or anything*

Last night I was riding back with my family from Thanksgiving "dinner" and we stopped at Wal-Mart to get milk.

There were 7 police officers (that I saw) inside the store. You almost couldn't move, and people just had shopping carts full of junk. It was also like everybody just forgot what it was to be a decent human being. We didn't even have carts, so obviously we're no threat to the deals right? And people were damn near running us over with carts. Ankles being hit, actually being hit by a cart, etc....

Just craziness.

I kept my ass in the house and stuck to looking at stuff via Amazon.

Black Friday disgusts me.

I rolled out of bed, realised that over here it's not really a big deal and it was just Friday.

Although I did read a news article about it on the BBC, apparently ASDA (owned by Wal-Mart) are doing this black Friday.

I bought battlefield4 for half price yesterday on amazon. I'm a monster.

The tv media God said shop, so they shopped.

Drudge has some pretty god coverage of black friday. Unfortunately your average drudge reader thinks that it is all somehow Obamas fault.
