"Boy, could I go for a sweet deal on a ream of 3-holed. Honey, are you done with your pie yet?"
Let's see the vid.Line of traffic tonight getting into the local Staples parking lot.
Staples. Think about that.
in defense of staples I bought my last laptop, nexus tablet and printer thereLine of traffic tonight getting into the local Staples parking lot.

How's that smokin' sweet 46" 1080p LCD holding up?It's a 46" 1080p LCD for $1299. I don't think you're getting "cheaper and nicer looking."That's assuming you absolutely have to have that particular product right now. If you consider that there are probably plenty of cheaper and nice looking TVs out there -- even with this super fantastic "sleep out in the cold" discount -- that would not change your experience when watching the crappy football game tonight, I don't see the +EV.It's insanity.For most people it takes a lot longer than 2 days to make $1000, so sounds like +EV to me.I'm thankful that evolution is working out better for me than it has for the people out there in line.
Watching "This is 40" right now on HBO in my living room on it.ETA - I don't remember if we covered this, but I ended up buying it at Costco a week later and not waiting at CC for it.How's that smokin' sweet 46" 1080p LCD holding up?It's a 46" 1080p LCD for $1299.

To be fair mocking is one of the things we do best and really some people make themselves easy targets.bentley said:Watching "This is 40" right now on HBO in my living room on it.ETA - I don't remember if we covered this, but I ended up buying it at Costco a week later and not waiting at CC for it.Otis said:How's that smokin' sweet 46" 1080p LCD holding up?It's a 46" 1080p LCD for $1299.

ETA2 - You've also really mischaracterized my position in this thread for the last several years. Never said I was standing in line overnight for a TV but that maybe one shouldn't mock people that do.
You know, I've never actually participated in Black Friday. On the other hand, I hear that the morbidly obese have trouble with memory so I understand why you wouldn't recall that fact.You guys all get sweet plasmas today?
Anyone hear from Bentley? He ok?
Shootings and stabbings also welcome.Bump
One of my favorite holidays traditions is seeing these videos of people fighting over mixers. Please post.
Even truer today than it was two years ago.You know, I've never actually participated in Black Friday. On the other hand, I hear that the morbidly obese have trouble with memory so I understand why you wouldn't recall that fact.You guys all get sweet plasmas today?

I didn't realize Otis schtick has sucked for eight years. Guy really flamed out early.Just don't dig the whole "superior to the poor working stiffs" part of O's bag of tricks. 150% Otis, Heads up with gay poker robot Otis, and camera phone whore Otis are cool. This one's down there with fall in love with a different girl every three days Otis and unable to complete Otis.Pretty defensive here, Brent.For the record, I'm paying a couple hundred extra bucks and getting a different TV versus standing in line. I'm just not sure why you need to be an ####### about people that want to save a few hundred bucks.
You're still sore about this, aren't you.I didn't realize Otis schtick has sucked for eight years.

If anyone shops Walmart, please post the vid. I'm sure you'll find the best fights and sights there!Bump

Not really. Just continue to be sad about what you've become and waiting for you to get better.

Best thing I ever bought at a circuit city was when my local one was closing down, I went in and bought a bunch of the stock room shelves for my basement. They were great quality, hold a ton and I think I paid 40 for a 6ft section.Our Circuit City is now a rock climbing place. They have one of those huge walls you can climb.
I know one circuit city that still has its sign up after 8 years.Our Circuit City is now a rock climbing place. They have one of those huge walls you can climb.
I slept well and was indoors and warm last night, and still have my dignity.Ah was just thinking about this. Poor Otis.
Any updates?Good bump. You guys getting in line for that sweat deal on a 50" TV when you could instead just wait 3 months and get that TV for even less and even order it online so you don't have to spend hours in the cold and punch a grandma?
Your Black Friday spoils: whatcha got?
Whoa now. We've read your thread.I slept well and was indoors and warm last night, and still have my dignity.Ah was just thinking about this. Poor Otis.
You sure about this? We have multiple threads around here that suggest the oppositeI slept well and was indoors and warm last night, and still have my dignity.Ah was just thinking about this. Poor Otis.
You realize this thread is so old that Circuit City doesn't exist anymore?Bump
