Who here actually goes/went Black Friday shopping?

I was never big on it, I like to think I'm not materialistic.

But did any of you camp out for deals or leave thanksgiving early to go shop? or better yet did any of you work in the trenches of retail during the madness?

I just remember growing up seeing the mobs of people on the news blitzing through Walmart to get the new PlayStation/Xbox.

Cyber Monday is way better imo and probably better for humanity lol

A very long time ago when I was in college. Scored a sweet suede jacket. But never again. I prefer to watch news stories about the craziness that evening instead.

My plan is to wait and see till the next BF CS update shows up,if those items in mind have a place here then great that should be enough for me with no extras,if not perhaps I might consider a plan B:)

Compelling online deals only.
Never used to be a thing in Canada, and now all the same deals are basically online anyway.

Bought stuff online. These places are screwing themselves by opening sales before Black Friday

My friends & I used to wait in lines at the outlet mall at like midnight on Black Friday. It was always freezing cold & some stores we would have to wait over an hour to get into. The worst part is, we would only buy like one or two things ๐Ÿ˜…

Iโ€™ve only done it like twice when there was a specific item I was going for. Four years ago I got my tv no issue. Walked in and walked out at like 8am

Best people watching there is.

But, itโ€™s not like how it used to be.

I once saw a woman beat another woman with a a 3ft Superman doll over an Xbox 360.

Then I saw another woman hit another with a pan over a vacuum cleaner. As they were fighting, I picked it up and put it in my cart.

The trick is to have someone who waits at the front of the store with a cart.
