You could offer shirts for most hilarious holiday family dysfunction stories! People crack up when they hear how my grandpa got stuck outside in his undies on Christmas in the snow with the front light on and lots of holiday travelers going by! How about offering a guess as to how soon Walmart will drop the 'no ads for you!' ax? We know it's coming, we just don't know when! Closest to the exact date/time of Walmart dropping the hammer (and gottadeal getting notice) wins a shirt. You could do a contest to give away shirts for best Black Friday horror stories. We all probably have great ones! You could do another caption contest, that was fun! You could send random members 'trick or treat' emails and they have to answer a deal question correctly to get a treat...a BF shirt sent to them. Otherwise they get a trick...locked out of the forum for a day! OH NOOOO!!!!!

Bah! Missed another one.

My favorite thing about BF is EVERYTHING! I love the crowds, the completely crazy people, the ones that act like they will simply D-I-E if they don't get the last Wii on sale. It is hilarious!

1) The tears from the out of luck shoppers are really coming down this year! 2) Yeah...we got the iPhone! Good luck getting your hands on the ONE we have in today! 3) Oh man! Nine hours camped out in line, three hours to get all my stuff and wait in line to check out....and I forgot my wallet at home!

Photo #1 - Target's big red balls of doom do not discriminate in their carnage and rampaging...even the carts are not safe! Photo #2 - 364 days a year we would call them crazy...on Black Friday they are WARRIORS! Photo #3 - Look folks...this is AppleBEE's...not the APPLE STORE! We have NO iPads! GO HOME!

Last year was the craziest BF I have experienced yet. I went nice and early to Walmart because they had a KitchenAid mixer I wanted for $140. I got there and there was already a crowd forming around all of the early sale items. There were aisles lined with people in chairs with their hands on large boxes on dollies...with sale TVs in them. Apparently you could only get it if you kept your hand on it until 5am! I found the mixers....all ten of them. I asked how many were waiting for a mixer. About seven others were waiting. I couldn't get very close and I knew if I didn't do something, when 5am rolled around I would be trampled with no mixer to show for it. So I wedged myself in between two pallets of sale items. O.M.G. NOT a comfy way to spend an hour, but I was literally leaning on the stack of mixers, so I knew one was MINE! Right before 5am, there was still one mixer no one had laid claim to. An older lady came by and asked about it. She was told she could get it, but there was no way for her to get near it. Five am rolls around and I grabbed the top mixer with the intention of shoving the bottom one over to the elderly lady that asked for it. Suddenly I am in a bad action movie! Some psycho leaps over the large display behind me knocking over most of the boxes, trying to lay his hands on a mixer! He went OVER my head! I was trying to push the box with my foot and he is laying on the floor trying to grab it. The lady squeezed in and this maniac was literally in a tug of war with an old lady for a mixer at five in the morning! It was all too nuts and sad and angry for me. I grabbed my mixer and ran like heck! The whole rest of the shopping trip I was worried someone would cart jack me and grab my mixer out of my cart when I wasn't looking! You don't mess with a woman and her mixer! But two hours, and several hundred dollars later, me, my mixer and loads of other goodies were headed for home!
