People Going Insane On Black Friday | |
| Lisa*Lisa User ID: 1106916 11/23/2012 10:06 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I do not understand why hoards of sheople cram themselves into shopping malls the day after Thanksgiving. To save a little money? I'm sorry, but it just isn't worth it to me. I would rather pay regular price for something I could freely walk in and out of a store in 10 minutes than to stand in the middle of a mob for hours. Those people are nuts. Quoting: Resister I agree! I think I went to the mall on black friday one time, when I was about 19 yrs old. That was only because my buddy really wanted to go. It was such a pain in the butt, we had to drive around like 20 minutes to find a parking spot. Then, you could barely move in the stores. I'm going to shop just like I have the past few years- online. Went to my mom's for Thanksgiving dinner like most folks yesterday. Driving home around 8:30pm We saw people lined up all the way around a huge Target store in between cities. They were just waiting for the store to open. The line was so long and there were so many people that we were able to see them clearly from the interstate (about half a mile off) driving by at 70mph. Those people are flipping insane. I saw on the news yesterday that they started putting up their tents on the sidewalks days ago. Insanity! Have You Accepted Jesus As Your Savior Yet? What Are You Waiting For?

It's crazy because a lot of the stores only carry like 10 of the items advertised. So, you have hundreds of people lined up for a $298 40-in HDTV, but only the first 10 people get it.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 27688679 11/23/2012 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Black Friday got off to a rowdy start at a San Antonio mall where police say one shopper pulled a gun on another who punched him in the face while they were waiting in line at a Sears store. Quoting: Sleeping Giant [link to www.nbcdfw.com] Altamonte police said the woman was arrested for several things Thursday night. They said she was being disruptive in the traffic line outside the store. They also said Chavez tried to bully the officer directing traffic and refused to go in line the way she was supposed to. When Chavez got inside the Walmart, police officers said she caused a scene and threw merchandise on the ground.

I cannot believe the way people behave over the opportunity to save a few bucks on something. Sheesh. When in doubt, be kind. When you are certain, be even more so.

Quoting: Resister ANSWER: It brings some meaning to their lives, and some drama and excitement. Plus, some people just can't afford Christmas gifts for what often big, extended families. But they still have a psychological need to show off with a lot of gifts, bling, spoil kids, etc., So these sometimes incredible early bargains attract them like flies to shit. It is sad and pathetic. There's nothing noble about poor people or people who living beyond their means acting like savages just so they can show off and keep up with the Jones. |

Quoting: Lisa*Lisa I'll never forget that as long as I live. These stores should not be allowed to have these events after it's been proven to put people's lives in danger. They can't control the insane mobs that show up. Why not have the sales and deals online shopping only? Problem solved and nobody gets hurt. I think it's absolutely insane that people will trample a person to death for material things. Humans are the most dangerous animals. |

I had to laugh as the anchor guy quipped about how many people were coming out empty handed after having waited in that long line to get in!!!! Hahahahahaha! CHUMPS! LOSERS!!! |

The same with us, they wanted to go out to Cabela's but after reading the fine print on the black Friday flyer I was able to persuade them not to go......in big letters the first 600 in line get free gift, and of course they tease you with 5 or 6 gifts but most people probably got the five dollar gift card. Then in fine print you must be 18 or older and one gift per household.....yea the stores feed the monster! |
