Divinfool 0 #2 November 25, 2011 I don't get it.... two days in line to get a TV for $200 off? Must be the thrill of the hunt? Fear is the thief of dreams..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnMitchell 16 #3 November 25, 2011 I used to go to Best Buy, get in line 10 minutes before the doors opened, and score great deals. But like Yogi Bearra said "That place is so crowded nobody goes there anymore." I ain't camping out for 2 nights to save $200, at least not while I have a real job.

Well, up until the goons start with the pepper spray anyway. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

I thought one of the draws for camping was to save the $$$ from hotel rooms. Cheap bastards are always camping out at the DZ ...go figure. My reality and yours are quite different.

If not, well... I guess Darwin will handle the rest.

popsjumper 2 #12 November 27, 2011 Holy crap! SAVE $1200????????????? I don't wanna know...I just don't wanna know. If you're buying a fridge AND saving $1200 on the deal, you can afford to adopt a son....when can I move in? My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

popsjumper 2 #13 November 27, 2011 OK...now that the battle is over, does anyone have stats on injuries and fatalities? Body count? Just out of curiosity, what was the expected level of collateral damage and did we exceed that again? I learned by watching others....don't get mixed up with Black Friday warriors...you will probably get your ass kicked. My ex and her family all get together before hand every year and make battle plans. It's very much like a military operation with attack zones and back-up reserves. Watches synchronized, routes planned, objectives identified and located, store maps, blocking maneuvers....it's really impressive what 4 women can come up with. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
