Staples
acer laptop
200 gb hard drive
I arrive at my local circuit city at 12:30 am and there were already over 30 people ahead of me. The local circuit city had started to pass out vochers at 4:30 a.m. by this time the crowd had swell to over 200 hundred people. Five minutes later I heard people ahead of me in the crowd saying that the laptop vochers were gone. The employeee who was passing
out the vochers confirm it to me a couple of minutes later ,that the store only receive fiftenn laptops and that there will be no rain checks. So I got out of the line and headed to staples which was not far from circuit city to see if I can get not only their laptops but the hard drive and dvd-rw they had on sale. Again I was 30 in the line and had to wait another hour for the store to open. As soon as the store open the crowd storm to the entrance and I waited in the front line and entered the store. I grab the
200 gb hard drive first but they were already out of the dvd-rw drive. Next I ask one of the employees there where are the laptops and he pointed me up to the customer service line where they were passing out the laptops. I was able to recieve one of the last one's they had in stock , paid for my items and left. At first I was disappointed in the laptop but I almost have the same specs as the cc toshiba one except 256 mb less of ram 20 gb less, and no s-video but it came with a year warantly. I will be upgrading the ram and get a slot card for the laptop soon so I am satisfied with what I got. I hope next year I will be able to shop at online cause It was way worse than last year Black Friday.
