I have never went out shopping on Black Friday. I have heard too many crazy stories about people fighting,stealing out of carts and whatever. Since I have never experienced this first hand can you tell me some of the craziest things you have experienced?
I've actually seen a fist fight over the last laptop at Walmart and 2 ladies tugging a Lego box back and forth cussing at each other. I just don't care to go out in it anymore...those kinds of people have made it a horror.
You can get such good deals online now! The ONLY way I'd go out on Black Friday again is to sit down with a cup of coffee and have a good laugh as they all scramble around!
I never go either. I refuse! But my husband told me that at 11pm last night , on the news, people were arleady lined up at the stores that opened at 12. It was pouring down rain, thundering and lightening. And people were out there waiting in line. Then between 2 and 4am I hear lots of car doors opening and closing and people beeping their horns in my neighborhood. That is ridiculous. I need my sleep, especially being pregnant. I just refuse. I think last year someone died at Walmart because they got trampled. There's no sense in that.
All I have, all I am, all I ever will be, is because of you, Lord! I am crucified with Christ, therefore I no longer live. Jesus Christ now lives in me! I am a 100% pro-life, wife, church goin Christian, choir singin, recyclin, natural products usin, vaccinatin, non co-sleepin, CIO method usin, soy milk drinkin, organic milk givin, coffee drinkin, dog lovin, schedule stickin to, vitamin givin/takin, soy candle burnin, as Green as I can get, Preg. w/ #2, WAHM.
I've only been once or twice. All I remember is how rude people were as far as shoving you out of the way.
But we hit up Radio Shack one year, and that was awesome. There were about a dozen of us in there, and everyone was getting along, helping each other out, even holding each others spots in line (strangers!)-it was so uplifting!
Oh, yesterday about noon we saw people already camped out in front of Best Buy. That cracked me up.
We wait to go till later. This year we will be going at 6:30 since there is stuff qwe want, last year we went at 10 just to check it out.
OMG seriously... ya there's no sense in that at all. They asked a bunch of marines here to work security for Wal*Mart and my DH volunteered, heck he gets paid 160 bucks =-) But I'm still waiting for him to get home from it all last night, I can't wait to hear some of the stories he has to tell lol.. I went last yr and it wasn't THAT bad but then again I only went to Wal*Mart and I remember as soon they opened the doors everyone FLEW in and ran towards the electronics lol I swear I think I was the only one that ran to the toys cause that's all I wanted, I don't even go anymore and this yr I'm just looking for good deals online and such cause I would go into labor w/ all that this yr lmfao..
