You could also buy the same item a day or so before the sale, then on black friday go in for a price correction. This way you guarantee getting the item.

Why go to the store and get the deals when you can get the same price online?? Last year I got everything I wanted the was a “black Friday special” right from my own house.

Waiting in line is for suckers.

or if u want a great deal, just work there for acouple months and use your employee discount. Ive been working at a big name retail store for about a year now, I bought a 50in 1080p plasma panasonic for just over $900. Granit that we recieved a 1000 mail in rebate through panasonic, But there are deals like this all the time when u work for big name retail stores.

Believe what you want to believe. I have worked retail and non-retail for a while and have been able to do it. There are plenty of exceptions and exclusions regarding purchases. I hardly pay retail for purchases and do it all legally.

But your info must be the end all and be all regarding black friday, right?

I was at circuit city last year. It was a zoo, all of the people that waited in line got screwed by the people that ordered on-line and selected pick up in store. They still got the best price. I dont remember much of work until 8am, i got in at 4am completely sloshed, upon noticing my belligerent drunkenness, my manager asked me to work the door and keep people from stealing. I was too allowed to be an ass to customers. I will never work retail on that day again… oh wait i will never work retail again, what a shitty job
