The Crazy Shopper Black Friday Stories Are Coming In For 2011!
tinkrbel replied to stationchief's topic in 2011
Damn...that's pretty horrifying. I hope someone donates whatever game it was the kid wanted:( -
nobody laughed ALTHOUGH I should have noticed when Walmart security lady asked me what gottadeal was once she was BEHIND me:P It just never occurred to me I just assumed she'd seen it as I walked up and only just then asked. My eyes are really feeling the lack of sleep but I'll try to make it. Sounds like we're in for some horror stories and yet it's being hailed a success at the same time.

I had an issue hours ago but assumed it was Comcast since Amazon wouldn't do that to me:P
-
Before I accidentally sprayed myself, pepper Spray went everywhere with me. Totally uncalled for and they should press charges
-
Many thanks and Congratulations are due for another fab BF.

I wished I had one when talking to the nice security lady at Walmart, she was all interested in year round deals so I pulled out a scrap of paper and put our address on there.
-
Brad....You feeling wiped out after BF? That avatar looks pretty hopeless:P
-

Aside from a small rant at Walmart.com earlier today this year went very well. I didn't get half as much as I have in previous years but we don't need much. I did JCPenney and Kohls online Wednesday night waiting for BB to come online. Then Thursday I did Best Buy and Radio Shack. This morning Friday I had a failed attempt at Walmart.com for 600tc sheets then headed off to JCPenney and Sears. Since we had left a little late (due to walmart) and arrived just after store opening we split up and hit one store each so we would at least get one ornament each. Well I hit Sears and bought a pashmina scarf and promptly took it to check out. I had to ask the girl 3 times before she understood but EVENTUALLY she gave me an ornament. I asked if I could have another for my mom and she said OK:P So I ran over to JCPenney and picked up the globe and we headed off to what we thought was the Macy's Home store in hopes of their 500tc sheets thinking maybe we could use the $10 coupon. We were in the women's section and a very helpful employee told us Men+Home was very close so we walked half the mall but I digress. We got the set but couldn't use the coupon and on our way back I stopped into the disney store. They had the 10.50 ornaments for 7.50(I think) each plus the extra 20% off of entire store came to about $6 an ornament. As luck would have it I had my disney rewards card in my purse and got all 10 ornaments free with .80 to spare towards the jack faces ornament set. I would normally not buy anything at 20% off BUT I love Jack and I know they'll disappear before they get clearanced. We headed back out of the mall and towards the older Walmart which had absolutely nothing and clueless associates. Since I had scored stuff I wanted online, while we were headed home I decided to suggest we stop by NEW Walmart see if it was doable. We got there about 15min before opening, the parking lot was surprisingly decent, with a few cop cars for presence. We parked right next to exit and joined the line of a few hundred the whole time fearing the worse. We had some trouble getting info from employees as things were not at their designated map area but EVENTUALLY one pointed us to a manager who told us where everything was. It was NOT chaotic, there was no pushing shoving or destruction of pallets but as usual there were those people who just NEED to block an entire aisle by having the family conference in a bottle neck space. Father called to say he was on way his to Home Depot so we asked him to pick up 8 poinsettia and now all we have to do is BJ's.

The only answer I know is give up and send them a detailed email explaining how you wasted your time because their system was not equipped to handle the volume. I had everything in my cart twice, one time I was even logged in already and it asked me to log in again. Eventually it emptied my cart a 3rd time, sheets were no longer available and it was time for JCPenney so I sent them an email. It got a point where it was giving me a funky error message at log in when I had just been logged in with same info. I managed to get everything I wanted in store BECAUSE my NEW local store decided to open at 6. So we got there about 5:50 and got inside within 10 minutes or so of opening and managed to find a manager to point us to what I needed since they weren't at designated location on map. I got 2 sets of the 600tc for me, then we picked up 6 of the cheap sets for family in Cuba and 2 more sets for mom's bff family. I got a waffler and 2 mini choppers, the foam pad thing, lots of 1.96 dvd's (for Cuba) and a set of cars pj and the matching slippers for my nephew. I may attempt to go online and order my brother the gators fleece I had in my cart earlier and totally forgot about while at store. They probably wouldn't have had it either since stores here usually only stock UM stuff.
-
screw them. I'm not ordering jack if they can't get their system to work properly. Sent off a nasty email which I'm sure they'll ignore.
-
in checking IE maybe they just hate FF
-
i'm so frustrated I'm going to cry and top it off you can't call and chew them out but only email them
-
emptied my damn cart again as I tried to checkout as guest and not coming back and nothing seems to be on site anymore
-
cartfull ready to check out then error, now cart seems empty and stuck:(
-
I'm showered and dressed but my eyes are still scratchy
-
many items HERE NOT LIVE. Sheets have a few other colors nothing awesome.
-
nothing then?
-
I prefer online to dealing with REAL life people:P In almost complete seriousness too. I just don't tolerate others as well as I should. Plus it seems like going to Walmart is asking for black eye on BF. I was going to stay at mine from 8 waiting but they decided they would close at 10 then reopen at 6 and seemed pointless then. The 24hr one a little further away is always a madhouse. Now I am off to try and get some sleep. Nickelback CD finished playing :)
-
someone order me a queen set of the 600tc sheets if they show up:P to add insult, website shows wafflemaker not "carried in" my store. Looks like I'll be hitting uo further away one anyway if I can't finish this before I leave.
-
**crosses fingers** hope I don't miss it.
-
don't see it on what I posted earlier, you can try the link brad posted a while as it was different but not sure.
-

-
I was hoping to leave at 3 for penneys and sears but who knows at this rate:( All items appear to be here NOT LIVE yet
