My only Black Friday purchase. Grinderman + Fripp single (I will go to my local independent record store, but fuck the malls and the big box stores!)
Subhuman behavior. That Ipad mobbing was pretty dark too. My wife (sheila) works as store mgr of H&M in Virginia..You can see one of their stores (somewhere in America) getting ravaged at the 1:02 mark. Shit is real.
I work in a bar. I got home at 3am today. And I see my facebook a'blazin with people "reporting" from Target, Walmart, etc. A. It's not reporting. You're standing in a line of angry people who all want the same crap you want and none of you (cept those first few) are going to get it. And when you DO get it, it's still just a toaster that's worth less than you paid for it, even if you paid "half off". B. No, sweet girlfriend, I do NOT want to get up at six am (remember when I said I got home at 3am?) to go to Macys. I understand that the high threadcount sheets (for the bed we haven't bought yet) are on sale for $25, and I know what they are retail. Sleep is worth more than 75% off. C. I'm getting everyone gift cards for christmas, and only for stores that sell their gift cards at Superfresh.
ugh... that looks horrible. i realize there are some good deals out there, but worth all that? On top of these dudes camping out for days???? So Best Buy had a 32" LCD Hi Def TV + Wii for like $200. that's a good deal. not worth camping out for mind you....but.... what other deals did anyone score to merit this madness?
There are NO GOOD DEALS out there. You have to factor what they call in economics "opportunity cost". I look at that video as an added tax.
Actually, I found one online. Accidentally while just browsing LED LCD displays. Samsung LED LCD 23" display for $179 + free shipping from NewEgg. That's the only "Black Friday" thing I bought. But I didn't have to wait in a line at 4am with people shoving each other. People are stupid.
Nhl 11 for 35 bucks at best buy. In and out and the last copy at 430 when I got out of work. There was not a single good deal this year.
Mishka is having a nice online and in-store sale. I picked up a few discounted micro infection monsters.
i somehow got conned into going to macy's. we got a wok and a teapot. my personal purchases were from walgreen's 2 DVDs for $5. I got Watchmen widescreen and Mr. Show Season 4. best deal out there as i haven't seen watchmen yet and mr show is unassaillably incredible.
In one of those situations it would be cool of me to shoot a bunch of them in the head. I thought they handed out tickets and shit for the big and crazy items now? I've never gone, I live on the internetz.
It's funny that you mention it because when all those people were crawling out from underneath the rising gates they look exactly like zombies looking for human flesh.

People are such sheep! I watched that video and if you didn't know any better you would think these people were being given food after not eating for 2 months. So sad our economy depends on this shit at the end of the year and people get brainwashed to make idiots of themselves like this.
The question is are you also a sheep forced to think the way you do as a counter push to the masses? We're all sheep man, no need to get upset. Whether we realize it or not, we're all being led. IT'S ALL AN ILLUSION! EMBRACE IT! MUWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! ::trolling:: I just don't get the people who don't understand the internet enough to be able to look for these savings online without having to go out and fight the sweaty hoardes. I was talking to someone I work with who thinks that the only deals are in the stores, then I showed them the equal deals online. They said "yeah but it's all sold out, you had to be online" well yes...but that's better than being outside in the 20 degree winds waiting. Furthermore a lot of the "deals" are illusions, TV's are going to be cheaper in Dec. and maybe even up until March. Some people just ENJOY this. They LIKE going out and doing it. But I like collecting weird/expensive vinyl toys (even non-hyped toys here are expensive in comparison to normal toys), I can't judge them.
