yes the day the piranhas is upon us! The ads will be out on Wednesday, and bright and early Friday A.M. people will be lining up outside their chosen stores, ready to rush in and fight over whatever bargain has caught their eye. This year I will be manning a register in one of these emporiums, not waiting in the 17-22 degree windy dawn to get the bargain. For me the day will start at 5:30 am, the store I work in will open the doors at 6 am, but our manager is treating the employees to breakfast before the opening. My request to all bargain shoppers is..Please be kind to the cashiers and store workers, remember they don't get to try for the elusive limited quantity bargains (we aren't allowed to shop before the store opens, the main bargain for us is an HP laptop and each store will only be getting 6 so we can't get one unless we send someone else in to get it at opening. My questions for you are... Do you go out in the early hours of Friday morning to get the deals? Waht do you do if they run out? Do you enjoy the frenzy?

I love Black Friday. . .unfortunately I still live with my parents and I do not have a car yet (or know how to drive), plus they have work so I do not really have the opportunity to go out on Friday as early as some other people can, and most things are usually gone by the time normal people wake up, since stores open up particularly really early on that day. I heard from others that they line up before they even open up which is insane, but if I had the opportunity to do so I would.
