Day After Thanksgiving Shopping Advice *****WARNING*****
 
DOnt ever ever ever ever ever ever. let your wife/girlfriend/mom talk you into going shopping on this day. Its is the worst mistake you could ever make other than not wearing a condom ------- around and getting your girlfriend pregnant.

I woke up early at 5am, and heard about people camping out at the electronics stores and malls, but then i heard there were 50% off sales and i really needed some new clothes, so the wifey talked me into going with her to KOHLS to pick up some new jeans, well we get there at 6am and already theres a ------- long as line about 150+ people. so i tell her to stand in line (mind you shes 7-8 months pregnant, while I look around), I swear to god we took turns standing in line for about 3-4 hours and finally we arrive at the register, I have never so happy to pay for something in my whole life (mind you im a cheapskate) but i ended up with 4 pair of jeans, about 8 shirts, and a dickies jacket, shoes, and a bunch of clothes for my son and it was only like 250$, so it was kinda of worth saving 250$ plus i got 50$ in store credit, but ----.... the damn holidays bring out the worst in people, cranky ass old people that cant wait in line,

SO my advice to you is to just give your wife/girlfriend/mom your money and let her go to the store by herself, and buy you whatever.... at least she'll be out of you hair for the better half of the day.

well thats it, lets hear your horror stories.

I can't believe you actually fell for this "day of shopping" ----. The last thing I would want to do is go shopping because everybody else says I should. I'd rather shop when nobody is there. Better yet, no employees either. All the hype makes everyone spend more than they want to, and then they go home and feel so proud to be in more debt than before the newsman told them they have to go shopping today.

I bought a raunchy breakfast croissant at the gas station and decided blacky friday wasn't for me.

Local strip mall about 20 miles from here has people coming from all over the east coast to it, even from I think the name was Grevenhurt Canada came in a shuttle bus? I sure as ---- am not going out tomorrow to shop or even for a few weeks. Late shoppers ftw

Damn, and I almost wanted to go shopping today.

My girl got up at about 4 am and told me horror stories of bitchfucks parking her in and waiting for hours in line too... I'm glad I didn't do much of anything today.

I ended up going to Sears, didn't go until 3 in the afternoon though. By that time all the lines were gone. lucky for me, the torque wrenches were still on sale and there was one left. So i picked it up for $60. Just goes to show, being a slacker pays off.

---- all that ----. I have never been shopping early on black friday or any other day. ----, i hardly ever go shopping period.

but this year, i work at best buy and it was ------- crazy. it does bring out the worst of people, especially fat ass ------- homo computer freaks that arent happy because theyre too fat to stand in line for 3 hours.

i worked from 4am to 1pm. it was just ------- crazy the first 3 hours. People actually started camping out in front of the store the day of thanksgiving at 2pm!! wtf, ------- retards.
anyways, there was a super HUGE line, probably around the whole block.
I got cussed at like no other, and some stupid bitch called me a ------- spic. I swear i was about to ------- knock her the ---- out or atleast tell her off like no other. the only reason i didnt is because I NEED this job and it really isnt all that hard and pays decent.

anyways, whoever goes shopping on black friday needs to get shot, twice.

Yeah. Those annoy me because they are usually no-talent ass fat ass ------- homo computer freaks. Had one sitting next to me in one of my computer classes, he tried to project the geek 2 teh max!!1 image on everyone, but I called it right off to the guy who sat on the other side of me; this guy is too lazy to get off his ass and do anything, so he'll be too lazy to either learn what is required in class or to lift a ------- screwdriver and break down/assemble one of the systems. Sure enough, he dropped out in the first two weeks.

I've yet to meet a fatty who had accrued any real amount of knowledge or skill. All the time and dedication it takes to stuff Twinkies into your pie hole precludes doing anything else.

You should be able to correct the customer when they are obviously out of line, and the spic lady needed to be ejected. I don't care for pissy people with their panties in a bunch, thinking you have to take what they dish out because they lead miserable unhappy lives. Trust me, bro, I don't care a whole lot about spics, but if I'd have been there I'd have called her ass out for you. :-*

I said ---- that ----, even though I was up almost late enough the night before to just walk into some stores I didn't want to spend any money. I find that anything you can buy from a retailer typically isn't 100% nescessary to live. Clothes might be the exception but you can get a good enough deal on those any day of the year for me.

I quit working at Sears a week before black friday, even though I got paid on comission I decided that it wasn't going to be worth it to work there between the bitchy managers and shitty customers.

yea, my manager told me that I could correct them and pretty much make them leave if they behave like that later that day.

I wish i woulda known this before hand tho. I have only been working there for about 3 weeks now, so im a noobie to the retail world.

I love you too JD :-*

So working in retail sucks just as bad as being the shoppers that morning. Imagine working at Best Buy in home theatre and having stupid ------- morons ask you where the sweeper bags are. Or asshats asking where they can get more ram for their computer. I had to be at work at 330 ------- am. I get there and our parking lot is packed, line of people wrapped around the whole building, cars parked on sidewalks, tents, just plain mayhem. people started waiting wednesday around 730 pm, right before we closed. There had to have been 1800 people waiting to go inside, then when they all get the ---- they need, they ------- complain because the checkout line is too long, or complain that all 28 registers were not enough.

---- BLACK FRIDAY! :7

on a side note, we sold an insane amount of ----. sold a hair over $2.3 million worth of ---- that day. makes the GM happy in his pants :l
