Giving You More Than Just My Two Cents
Black Friday
This day is just nuts. Midnight mall madness, 4 AM store openings, mad rushes to get the "Bargain".
I will never understand this day. Not to mention that most people who are insane enough to do this today, are not getting the bargains they think they are getting, The week before stores are jacking up the prices so they can make you think you are getting 50, 60, 70% off.
To add to that, these freaks are out in like 20 degree weather freezing their asses off waiting for some 18 year old store clerk to unlock the door.
Most of the blame to me goes on the stores, Whats wrong with opening at 9 AM and offering the same sales? Why 4 AM? Seriously? You can't wait 5 hours? IF you offer the same sales at 9 you are still going to sell the place out, more people will actually be out of bed to be there.
There is no bargain that will ever, ever, get me out of bed to go shopping at 9 AM, nevermind 4 AM. Alright, I confess, Tragically Hip tickets or Tragically hip CD release maybe, other than that nothing. That said, Im up, I have to go to work, but before I do, Im gonna check out Ebay from the comfort of my own home.
