Dragos1: At "Target"? and "Walmart" ?? Not even on a good day! LOL.. I never like to go into those ones. And after all those people waiting they all have to get to the bathroom!!
Come one, come all ! The one time event of the year at Walmart. After Thanksgiving Day Match ! Public VS Public.
Lookin4missright: Freakin like here, when price of fuel goes down from $1,40 to $1,38 per litre.... (2cents) which no longer exists
Everybody lines up for ages (waisting fuel to save approx $2) or whatever
it has been awhile but I know what you mean about the crazy petrol lines..I mean when there has been a shortage or something of that sort. People sometimes will risk the lives of everyone around them to save a bit of change per liter/gallon...

Yep, does'nt matter in what country i always get a laugh at peeps spending time in a line to save a few dollars which they have guzzled while waiting... then while inside buy things that they prolly would'nt have if just kept driving past, or just getting up while everyone else is still sleeping if so crutial (spellcheck)
There is a woman with about 6 electric toasters in one of those that just makes me laugh.( she seems to happy!).. People actually do this year round at the big second hand warehouses as they have to stand behind a line and they roll out these huge bins on wheels that contain random garbage (old broken junk) that others have thrown out! LOL...they just go insane...and then at the register they weigh it and sell it to them by the lbs. I wonder if there are videos of that as well...this is kinda like a pre black friday event for some I suppose...they can get all mentally equipped to block out all the chaos.

Don't forget about the times they run into each other while they wait for hours in those fuel lines! I have seen that as well. After awhile people lose concentration and pop a clutch and then oops!
A few years ago, I went to Walmart Black Friday, not to buy anything, but just to watch the action first thing in the morning at opening. It was indeed an event. Now, these days, Walmart has low prices in particular departments throughout the Thanksgiving week to deduce the crowd. So far, it has worked very well.

Now I have some very nice friends in Canada but never really asked about this Black Friday there.. it seems that it is a bit more under control and from what I hear the large stores are still giving great deals! just no huge lines or the insanity. Pretty cool.

Maybe this would be a good day to just make your own wild videos! I can only imagine what this year could be like!...but maybe people will be a little more relaxed NOT...LOL.

Dragos1: "Black Friday" has been a big sale day after USA Thanksgiving and just gets more and more crazy it seems. But now I understand that it has been catching on in several other countries. Have you see it or participated in your Country? ( I went out once when I was working in a Mall Hair Salon..it was basically insane, lol.. have you, do you??
No, thank goodness. A friend of mine gets up at 3am to be in the stores early and tells me it's like a rugby scrum. No thanks!
