How do you feel that a couple in Florida is already camping out for Black Friday at Best Buy?

I bet I can guess why their tent is blue!
IMHO when people do things like this they’re satisfying some of their basic instincts. In this case they’re "hunting". It’s a lot like when people get into their sports team or something. We have these primal drives that we have to satisfy in some way.
Black Friday is the most disgusting day of the year.
It is a glorification of everything that is wrong with this country.
The fact that people have been trampled to death over a $10 coffee machine is a disgrace to our culture.
It makes me wonder how much violence there will be this black friday.
I’ wondering where the hell their getting their money if their camping out and not working.
LOL. I think they are fools.
They are Floridians, what do you expect?
They must have great job.. Probably blowing all their god damned CS on crap.
they need to get a life!
I think somebody needs to tell them about how the Black Friday prices end up being the regular prices by December 15th. So it’s pointless to sit there.
They don’t have a life.
I saw them yesterday – they have a HUGE tent (like for sleeping 6) AND a portable pavilion with a couple of camping chairs, a cooler, etc. People are openly mocking them ("Nice campground there, loser"). They are total idiots.
they are idiots
Meh.
they are a perfect example of what’s wrong with our country.
the day after thanksgiving was originally dubbed ‘black friday’ by east coast police departments, because of the death rates that result from mob shopping.
the day of unnecessary death is celebrated more than the day of thanks and gratitude.
1. What does this have to do with politics?
2. Why do you care?
It is none of my business
I wonder what they do for a living to take a week off to camp out in front of an electronics store. And they don’t even know what will be on sale or what they want to buy. The adjective MORON comes to mind.
gotta get that vibrator extension!!!
Madness, total madness!!!!!
Considering that just about every retail store jacks up the prices on EVERY THING over 300%, and then advertises HUGE SAVINGS, is nothing more than a gimmick.
Every item in the store is not on sale.
The price may vary a percentage, but the store still makes a huge profit off of every thing sold.
X-mas is for young kids.
Adults shouldn’t even bother giving other adults gifts.
And if they do, it should be for a trip or a cruise; not socks, gloves, or some ceramic crap to be stuck on a shelf.
