Black Friday is simply retarded. For my job, it's mandatory to work that day, so I'm lucky enough to be there when people start lining up in the wee hours of the morning, fighting over parking spaces, fighting over merchandise, fighting in the checkout lines, and just being plain crazy all day long over material goods.... people seriously lose their brains when it comes to Black Friday.
Do me a favor and stay home. Nowadays I'm usually off on Fridays due to my school schedule, and since Lowe's scheduler is computer operated, it never schedules me. No one ever thinks to ask me if I'm in school that day or not... so it's a 'don't ask, don't tell' kind of situation. And if they did ask, I'd lie and say my school's not out. |

No, I doubt it. We're usually out of town visiting the folks, and it's not really worth it to me. Last year, however, I did find some joes that were put out at Target (some Troopers and others) that I had been looking for. This year, I have everything I need preordered and I'm not certain I'll be buying the Target battle pack.

I make sure that I'm well-stocked on whatever I need and finished with my Christmas shopping before Thanksgiving, 'cause I don't go anywhere but to visit friends and family on Black Friday and several days that follow it. I've never participated in Black Friday madness as a shopper, and I haven't as an employee since I quit Wal-Mart way back in '00...and I'll never, ever participate in either capacity again. =)

I hear you there... I remember working at Service Merchandise, Blockbuster Music and Music Plus back in the day for Black Friday. And they were horrid, horrible days...

I'm going ... if only for the LEGO store at King of Prussia. They're having a scratch off deal 20-50% off purchases. Hopefully I can convince my wife to buy me that Death Star kit.
