It came in the guitar box, not a Best Buy Box, has the full colored picture of the guitar on the box, and the driver just left it in my garage. Doesn't Best Buy know that people buy Christmas presents on Black Friday? If it would have come 2 hours later, or if I didn't notice it in my garage as I was leaving my son would have seen the box and seen his Christmas present! I also ordered something for my husband, it is smaller, but I'm worried that it won't be in a Best Buy box either...

I'm not talking about people that don't have any other choice, or kids over 12. Although I was surprised that there was so many teenagers at the mall at 3 am, what about all the 4,5 & 6 year olds. The parents of every single child that we saw did have a choice, every single one of them there was more than one adult. Why couldn't one of the adults stay home with the children? We saw 3 women with a very tiny baby, why couldn't / didn't one of them stay at home with the baby and they other 2 shop for that person?

Had a similar issue at TRU on BF last year, I was the second person in line in the electronics department when they opened and they told me they were sold out of something, and the person in front of me didn't buy any ??? I kept asking how that was possible over and over and I called the store manager on my phone and asked him to come to the electronics department because he wasn't responding to his employees calling him on the walkie and said that it was holding up the entire line, they had me grab items off the shelves to complete the bundle and sold it to me at the ad price. I never raised my voice, but I refused to leave and called out the manager and they gave the advertised bundle items & price to me and my neighbor. I think once you leave the store they won't make good & you have to be pushy without being rude.

I was surprised at the number of kids I saw out BF shopping with their parents all night. I saw a few at the store we went to at midnight, but then we went to the mall & at 3:00 am we went to the food court to wait for the 4:00 stores to open and there were kids all over the place. I'm talking about little, under 8 year old kids at 3-4 am. My kids begged me to take them with, they are almost 11 & 12, and I didn't think they could handle staying up all night, so we were shocked to see 5 & 6 year old kids out with their parents, awake at 3:30 in the morning. Throughout the night I saw a couple of my kids friends out with their parents so it made me think about taking my kids with next year, but then I heard all the stories about the crazy people & someone pepper spraying people and now I'm back to thinking that I won't take them out with me next year. I go out after Thanksgiving dinner & don't come home until 8 in the morning and I don't want to have to run home to drop off my kids in the middle of the night. Was it like that all over the place, were there a lot more kids out with their parents than before? I didn't notice women by themselves with their kids, it was groups of people with kids (we saw 3 women and a very young baby or 4 adults with 2 little kids around 4-5 years old) and we thought why didn't one of the adults stay home with the children? And how were those kids up at that time of the night?

That's funny because I had the same issues and didn't even end up getting anything with mine & I had 3 of them I didn't bother using for the exact same reasons! -
I won't have to buy toothpaste, toothbrushes, floss pics, men's or women's deodorant, razors, naproxen (generic alleve) or hair bands for a VERY long time! I had to do one last trip tonight before they closed :) I'm lucky to have 3 Walgreens within 10 minutes of my house!!

Official One-and-Only "What I Got" & "My Black Friday Experience" Thread
Rockfordmom replied to Brad's topic in 2011
But were all those TV's left over the Door Buster TV's or were they just OK priced TV's that weren't such a great deal that stores put out in hopes that when they ran out of the doorbusters that they hoped people would buy? And no one did which is why they were leftover. My guess is that Best Buy didn't have any of their $199 42" TV's left and that Walmart didn't have stacks of their $98 TV's left? -
You can use a RR to pay for a different item from the same manufacturer. I used last weeks Scunci RR's from the barrettes to pay for the Scunci ponytail holders and I got the RR's for them. Each item does not have to meet or exceed the value of the RR as long as the total $$ amount does at the end. You can use a $6 RR and a $2 RR to pay for a $7 and a $1 item. It just takes a little while and a few mistakes to get the hang of the RR's and when you figure it all out they are great! I like them better than CVS ECB's because CVS has limits on everything and at Walgreens you can keep rolling them and get more than one of things you use. Walgreens cashiers used to be not so friendly about letting you do multiple transactions, but now they ask you if you want to split your transaction up, it was like overnight one day they all changed their policy on RR's.

you can hold on to the money until they get to the register, you can even buy one of them yourself and get back in line again to pay for the second one, just they are probably not going to let you purchase 2 of them at the same time if there is a limit of 1
-
Remember that they will probably have to be paid for separately.

I did see a garage door opener in one of the ads but I don't remember which store it was in, check the sears ad and all the hardware store ads. -
Are there any stores that are kind to disabled/handicapped persons on BF?
Rockfordmom replied to ajogg's topic in 2011
I wonder if all Menards are that bad because the one here is exactly the same. I have complained to corporate and the store manager and last year called the store before they opened and they didn't do anything. I wrote a letter to the newspaper but they called me and said that they don't print complaints about businesses. I guess someone has to get hurt there before they change anything. I want someone to video record it, it's just crazy! -
Get better soon bigjim, just worry about getting better so you can shop!
