Default black friday stories - 11-24-2006, 06:26 AM

so my sister and i woke up and went to best buy this morning, we got outside bestbuy at about 0445 and the line was already wrapped behind the store. once the store opened at 5 we still waited about another 15 mins untill we actually got in the store, which kinda sucked. after we get in, she headed off to go buy a bunch of dvds she wanted for uber cheap prices and the only thing i really wanted to get was a new 360 mic since my dog destroyed my old one and a new play and charge kit. of course i get owned and none of the things i want are on sale and i end up droping fulll retail. now im back here and its 7 and im probably going to sleep till 2. hope the rest of yall that woke up had better luck.

brother went to best buy at 2am but the line was way too long. So they went to circuit city (there are a few in the area so they were thinking it won't be as crowded). He bought a game chair for $20, 2 32'' HD LCD TV's for $475 each, and 2 free poloroid cameras.

Who makes the TV? Probably some cheap shit. 32 inch LCD tv's (good ones) easily go for 1200.

OLEVIA...whatever, he just wanted one to put in his apartment bc his roommate is moving out to D.C. with the crazy entertainment system they have already set up. I don't care what you say, 50% of a HD LCD TV is pretty nice.

This is true, but large crowds hold a special place in the hole where my heart should be.

which day has cheaper prices? boxing day or black friday? i'd assume boxing day because people don't have to buy anything for a while, unlike black friday where people are going to be buying stuff anyways within a week or two.

Didn't leave the house today until 3:45pm.
Went to get my lil' guy a Hess truck at the gas station and stopped at Circuit City where i picked up the Terminator 3 dvd for $4. Probably watch it tonight.
They had COD2 for $39 but i didn't feel like getting it. Perhaps after x-mas.
