Anyway jack if you seriously don’t know its the day after thanksgiving. The biggest retail day of the year to kick off the holiday buying season. Most retail places have a ton of deals that day. ---

It’s such a joke except for the 4 or 5 people that are the first ones in the door and actually get the good deals. Everyone else is just retarded masses. I’d rather sleep in, relax, and order it online for $200 more later in the afternoon, fuck that madness. ---

I’d rather sleep in, relax, and order it online for $200 more later in the afternoon, fuck that madness. see, IMO, it’s worth it to go out for few reasons other then that $200 savings / item… considering that You are buying anywhere from 5-15 items. The year I went, we tallied up the reciepts from all the places - 3 of us spent a total of ~1400, our total _before_ discounts / sales was ~3900. T-UUUUP ---

I actually avoid that whole thing on Black Friday. My fiance and I stay the night at her parents house in Batavia after Thanksgiving dinner. Then in the morning we head out to Henrietta and the Market Place mall. Few if any Canadians there. Thank God! ---

I used to dread working at CompUSA on Black Friday. Busy as hell. I usually head out the door around 6am, hit about 5 stores and am done shopping before 9-10am. Sears usually has some nice tool deals. Radio Shack some decent stuff. Then hit or miss between Circuit City and Best Buy. Circuit City usually has great prices on DVDs for 4 hours.
