our bb was one of the lame ones without doorbusters so we changes our plan from midnight to 4 am...when we got there we were about 10th in line....2 or 3 people came in spots they were saving but we didnt mind as they were in a much different demographic than us...by the time the store opened there were probobaly close to 200 people in line
i had gone on monday to plan my route where i would walk in and grab a cart and the tv i was after right nest to it then head to the back with the car stereos and then over to the voucher place to pick up my desktop (when i thought they still had doorbusters)...well wheni got in i realized the carts were now outside and there were more tvs in their place but with all the people coming in behind me i knew i would not get back in if i turned back for a cart so i carried the 20" tv...which is much more difficult with freezing hands btw..all the way back to thecar stereos where my friend grabbed one for him and me along with the free speakers...now we had to improvise a route to the front because there was no need to stop and pick up a voucher item...we wound up finding a path that was barley small enough that my tv didint fit through so my friend helped me hoist it over and we got to the checkout before everybody else...when i pulled out my best buy bucks...i thought it was going to be a bit of a hassle but all that happend was that she said i could only use half and i told her the official rules said nothing of that...she called over a manager and i was happy to see the one who had helped a new employee let me use 300 of them when i got my s2 last week...she didnt even count them and just took my word for it
by 5:10 am we were in my car and on our way to staples where we were 3rd in line....by they time the store opened there were well over 400 people there...they told us where everything is before hand and i was first to a checkout where i was able to use a $15 off $75 coupon matched from office depot...the lines got long as they had to change the reciept paper and one of my rebates didnt print but soon a manager came over and assured me i would be able to do the easy rebate without having the specific paper...by 6:15 i was home in bed with everything i wanted...aside from the $150 desktop that they chose to exclude from my region
