Who’s going after what? I for one have stopped being excited about the door buster deals and the “extreme” specials they have (just smaller markup on many items). I also heard that many companies do one-off cheaper products such as laptops specifically for these specials and that model isn’t a typically carried model, hence why it’s so cheap.

Fuck Black Friday. Went to Wal Mart last year and mentally murdered 50+ people. Never again. Although Map Performance is selling the EF3 turbo I want for $1400 instead of $1800. Kinda pissed I can’t get that shitz right now ---

Tried going to walmart for a GPS last night. Shoppers were parking in parking lots down the street, because every lot near walmart was totally full. Said fuck it and turned around. Not worth this shit to save $15. ---

My wife went out to a midnight thing at target. She didnt buy much but did help an elderly man stop from bleeding to death becasue he tripped, fell and hit his head on the curb outside the building. As shes assisting the man waiting for police and EMT’s, another nurse she worked with walks right by and pretended like nothing was going on. That other nurse must have forgot the oath she swore to and just had to get that iPad on sale. The hell with black friday and ruthless people… I will enjoy my quiet day at work watching Slednecks ---

Not worth it, also places typically only have a couple of the BIG sale items, so you don’t end up getting them anyways. I’ll Cyber Monday shop. ---
