So what the fuck is wrong with people. Stores are opening at 8PM on THURSDAY, not Friday for deals. People are ALREADY camping out in some places to get the best deals.

I dont know what is worse,

1. The fact that people are actually leaving their families to go to these stores so fucking early.
2. The fact that the employees have to leave their families to go to work and appease these fucktards.
3. The fact that people are camping ALREADY. You are going to sit for 4 fucking days to save at the most $300-$400. You could go to work, make that much money in the week and buy it online. Do people really not value their own time?

FUCK BLACK FRIDAY. DOWN WITH THE DEALS.

Jesus christ are you serious? So sad, if anything I'll just wait for cyber monday, sit there in the comfort of my house eating my turkey leftovers, and scour the internet for deals. Some people are stupid

I like Black Friday, but I have never really cared enough to camp out for something. I'll just stroll in at like noon and see if anything cool is left at stores where I would actually buy something haha.

I hate how out of hand it always gets. Last year someone fucking died and some chick got pepper sprayed over fucking materials. I understand that there are good deals and some families may really value being able to get things cheaper, but assaulting someone? Fucking christ

Is any other nation like this? I feel like Americans always bitch and complain that they are generalized and labeled for whatever reason but this is something that shows that the self absorbed consumerist stereotype that the world holds of you is kinda true.

The point isnt that people are spending money where there are deals. The point is the excess in which they do so and how people begin to act because the new TV is shiny. No where else in the world do people line up 4 days in advance only to trample eachother, in some cases to death, just to get their hands on something new and slightly better than what they have sitting in their living room.

my cousin from sweden summed this up perfectly when we brought him black friday shopping when he was studdying abroad in the states "you americans are crazy, in sweden we would never wait in line in the dark and cold to buy something"

That said i really really want a sub $200 tv for my bedroom, because some days the living room is just to far to walk.

I get it. I get there are good deals and people want them. But I just fucking hate that people trample others and the stores open early, requiring employees to miss out on thanksgiving with family.

I wish all the employees would just fucking protest the entire day and not show up.

Only thing I ever camped for a night at a store for was phish tickets at walmart this year. Def was kind of entertaining till the morning crew came in and tried to be all serious.

We could sit in camping chairs from "the floor". Bitch, you work at walmart, everything here blows, I do what I want.

People all hyped up on coffee looking to tell somebody what to do to get their day started, fuck em.

I should bring a bunch of tv boxes with wood inside and sell them out front on black friday. Could probably get 10 grand from 50 bucks in lumber.

So if I need something I should not wait for the sales? I should just be careless with my money and spend it on things for full price at other time. Your honestly not really helping your point you still look like an idiot.

Shit I'd complain. I would rally the troops and if I worked at one of those stores who opens at 8 PM. I would smuggle in Thanksgiving dinner and when the people rush in just be eating dinner while they are trying to get help to shop. Nobody at the cashouts, nobody helping get items, nobody doing anything but enjoying a Thanksgiving meal.
