Nope. She took out her competition, got her XBox for dirt cheap, and got away.

Symptom of a banana republic.

The potential for being a victim on Black Friday is a small price to pay to get some cheap foreign made crap that you probably don’t even need.

I must be tired. I read the headline & thought “Gee, I should post that on FR”. Then I realized I was reading it on FR. And no, I’m not tired from shopping. I actually worked today.

This is good news. Someone posted somewhere earlier they heard sales were way down.

I thought of driving to Best Buy to get an ASUS tablet at an attractive price, before remembering that I don’t need a fracking tablet. I dropped a Prozac tablet instead.

Wife went out for some fabric and there wasn’t too much traffic after 10:00 am. Probably all the super sales were gone by then. My guess is that sales (despite the spin) will be down this year. All the people I have seen shopping have been buying necessities and bargains only. True test is how many stores fold after Christmas.

‘with 152 million shoppers expected’——

‘expected’ by who? That’s HALF of the U.S. population.

HOGWASH.

Only the Unions and Fed employee’s are off today, the rest are children or are unemployed....

[who knows what evil?]

Despite a lagging economy and high unemployment rates, retailers are reporting this year is one of the best for sales, with 152 million shoppers expected to hit stores this Black Friday.

152 million? I find that hard to believe...

Drudge has this headline right now on top of his page:

Black Friday Spending Flat


Lamestream media in this country is so horrible (including Fox). How do they know what the total shopping revenue is when the f'ing day isn't over yet ?

[Conservative4Ever]

Bought a new shower head at home depot today. Does that count as black Friday? Is “black Friday” a racist term?

[luvbach1]

At least a Walmart greeter didn’t get trampled to death by the bargain-seeking mobs.

Do you notice they say this every single year on Black Friday, but then when the numbers actually come in, they are pretty weak. That’s what I expect this year. I was out and about today..it wasn’t crazy like in years past at all.
