NortonFan 0 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Usually its because most people have the day off and stores have discounts outta the ass. And yes I will be one of these people. Link to post Share on other sites

cdt002 0 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I'd say it's bad, but at least they don't hate their money by buying things full price. I prefer the afternoon myself. I love it when the papers have articles about people being trampled and injured in the stampedes. Then it's funny. Link to post Share on other sites

NortonFan 0 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 It's not that bad here because...well I'm in Kansas. Usually you have to wait in a semi-long line and thats it. I will be hitting up Best Buy and Circut City. Link to post Share on other sites

Phillip_339 0 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Man, that sounds great. I live in Australia, and we have nothing remotely like this. So it is like the movies...... Fighting, trampling, thats great!!! Sorry guys, thats probably a horrible thing to say, but it does sound great. So its really cheap? I wish we had something like that over here, maybe without the trampling etc. Link to post Share on other sites
NortonFan 0 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 No, the trampling is great. If you see someone who is knocked over and you like there stuff you just laugh at them and take there stuff. That's how I do it anyways. Link to post Share on other sites
