My first black friday was about 6 years ago. We lived in a small town, 40 min. away from a large shopping area. This was the year Walmart had the TVs for cheap, and we really wanted one. I went by myself and didn't make it in time for the opening at 5, so when I went in, people were just standing around empty pallets waiting for them to restock. I looked around and saw a security guard near a cart with a TV already in it. He said he hadn't seen anyone around and I could have it. So I took the cart, went straight to the checkout and was out of Walmart 5 min. after I got there, late, with my TV. After that, everything seemed to go well, I was patient and calm while others were frazzled, and I still got everything on my list! Needless to say I am now a huge fan of BF! (TV still works too!)
