Black Friday Stories - 2011 Edition

[ZxT Vendetta]

I always like reading about how idiotic people were. Share some stories! I have read the ones online but I think all of us can entertain each other with stories that won't be in the press. The lady with the pepper spray... WoW... Just WOW.


This was actually my first BF heading out to a B&M store (normally I stay and shop online on amazon). Not too much happened at Wal-Mart minus this big fat guy going literally ape shit by the $2 DVD stand. He was flailing about and hitting people and throwing movies around. It was freaking hilarious. The "security" had to get involved and toss him out. People were just watching that whole fiasco so I snuck in and grabbed Dance Central 2, Kinect Sports S2, Forza 4, and Batman AC (for my buddy).

Got me a nice escort service, from a redbook girl, this chick was banging. She had good reviews from other members, so I couldn't resist. Her special for the holiday was $80 roses for the HHR. I played it safe of course so no BBBJ for me!

Few hours later, roughly 8pm, I headed to the local casino with a friend tried my luck on roulette and won $200 within the hour and cashed out immediately!

We drove around checking out the lines at wally world and Frys. Seems we were too late to both of them. We both laughed our ass off when we saw people coming out the chains with generic brand HDTVs! The only thing we wanted was an extra sharp LCD for that $200 lol. We both joked about how people would hold their bladder in that cold and not eat or drink anything.

Decided to go home and do my shopping on amazon.com!

My story?

I was sitting at my computer, on Amazon.com, and F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5.

But it was too late. I missed out on the 360 Kinect bundle.(

I was out Thursday night at Walmart looking for dental floss and I was surprised to see a line down the toothpaste isle. Then an employee asked if I wanted a ticket for a TV door buster. I was only there to buy a few groceries but I like that they have their deal buster lines within the store. Better than all the camping out stories I've heard to get a door buster! It seemed very calm for BF. Maybe it would have gotten crazy at 12am but I had no plans to stick around to find out.

I drove by Bestbuy since it was on the way home to see what the scene was like 3 hours before they'd be handing out the item tickets at 10pm. The line was already wrapped around the building all the way past the back of the store. There was like five big tents there in the first positions in line. I heard they had been camping out there for days. Talk about hardcore! I can't help but think they must be resellers.

I'm afraid of what happens in stores when BF actually starts so I'm not sure if I'd ever participate. Reading that mace story at Walmart really shocked me. How someone could do such a cruel thing, that's serious bad karma.

This year was my first time at a store at midnight, and I have to say, it was pretty tame. I got there at around 10, the line was long, but the people around us were nice. Come midnight, they let us in 30 people at a time (they gave glowsticks out to every 30th person) and once inside, almost everyone was polite, even most people in the toy section (which is where all hell breaks loose, usually.)
I got to the registers and there was nobody in line; checked out, got a coffee at the in store Starbucks, and left.

i was working at toys r us from 1 am to 9 am. nothing interesting except i had this spanish lady from venezuela who could barely speak any english and wanted me to scan all the cheap novelty ($1-$4 max) items. there was a good amount of 40-50. plus she had other items that had more value. literally spent an hr with her, trying to speak my level 3 spanish skills. she wanted to do 3 transactions. forgot to scan the reward card on the third transaction. told her sorry but i already finished the transaction but she could go online and put it in her acct (doubt she knows how) and said something in spanish very disappointing about 3-4 sentence. at that time, i lost my patience. and said " you puta". lol jk i said it in my head. my manager thought the whole thing was hilarious though and thought i had patience. totally irked on that last minute douche move though.
