Default Black Friday

Who was up early for the sales?
We were at Walmart when they opened and got a Blueray player.

i never been to a black friday due to the fact that i never want to wake up early lol but i got to say, you made a good choice on getting a blu ray player. if you got an HD tv, u will be blown away.. I have a PS3 and use that as my blu ray player which by the way is the cheapest bluray player you can get.. Blu ray, games, internet, store, media player, so much to name all at the same price as a regular blu ray player..

Did you guys see on the news at a Wal Mart I think in California somewhere, a Wal Mart employee got steamrolled by the crowd when everybody ran into the building like a pack of blood thirsty crazy beasts. The employee died, but the front of the building looked like a tank drove through it.

I didn't go out, nothing I needed. If the deal is good enough I would go out early though, however I'd never camp out for hours prior to opening. Last year I was at Best Buy at 530am, it was pretty nuts but everything was pretty orderly.
