Why's it gotta be black?
2005-11-18, 8:00 PM #3
Because black is slimming.

On prices.

Black is what companies use to denote profits. Red is loss.

I'll probably be working my *** off the entire day :/
2005-11-18, 8:52 PM #6
I'll be at home taking care of the kiddo. No early shopping sales for me. :|

Day after Thanksgiving sales in the US.
Pissed Off?
2005-11-19, 9:19 AM #10
I'm thinking about going to stores and pushing people around in the crowds. I don't really have any plans to buy anything.

I need a new car stereo. Preferably something with a line-in jack.

I'll probably be heading to Best Buy as early as humanly possible to pick one of those up.

I've got a [i[third[/i] 19" monitor possibly on the way for $35, so maybe I'll buy a fourth. (CRT)

I'll be keeping a lookout for good deals.

Not bad, Call of Duty 2 for $24.99 on Black Friday.
2005-11-19, 1:42 PM #15
I am going to spend my day after thanksgiving with my family, instead of running around a store like a chicken with my head cut off.

I bought a $400 flat panel 17" screen for $200 last Black Friday. That was my first one I went to.

I don't know though if I would wake up early if I didn't have a clue of what to buy before hand.

It would seem that this "black Friday" is all ready underway. I predict in 2009 we will be starting our "holiday shopping" some time around Bastille Day.

And by 2021, we'll start Christmas shopping on December 27th. OF THREE YEARS PRIOR.

Oh crap, I just realized I'm working that day. Looks like I gave my two weeks notice two weeks too late.

I hate everyone who shops on the day after Thanksgiving. They all deserve to rot in hell.

shop is good

we've gotten great scanners for free in some years past. always get the free cd spendals, and many of the other things.

this year it may be me, dad, and brother going out in the crack of dawn, hitting 3 differnt stors opeing door lines a once to achieve all of our goals... this should be good. well if it happins at all. some years we like to sleep in.
Laughing at my spelling herts my feelings. Well laughing is fine actully, but posting about it is not.

My birthday is on Black Friday.

I plan on buying a pizza and playing computer all day while laughing at those who go shopping on Friday.
I had a blog. It sucked.

I'm going to start camping at Best Buy around 11pm thursday night

I commend you for that dedication, I'm not gonna get to my local Best Buy until ~3:00-3:30 A.M. Then after I'm in and out of the best buy within 15 minutes I'll go get into the line at either Staples or Office Max since both open an hour later. Afterwards I will go home and laugh the the idea of people trying to shop on the afternoon of Black Friday, what with the hour long lines and nothing left on the store shelves.

Because you people make my life a living hell. All because you're weak-minded. Retailers have you in the palm of their ****ing hands. They own you. They control you. you're all just marionettes suspended by strings controlled by a bunch of greedy ****s.
