alliholl Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 I have done this black friday shopping for the last couple of years. I love it. When I go I have a listed printed off and highlighted in my hand. I never camp out. I go to atleast 4 - 5 stores a year. I have learned if i go and scout out what i want in the store before the sales begin it makes it 10 times easier. For example last year I had some purchasing to do at Kohl's there were prob 80 people waiting 5 mins before the doors open we got in the back of the line got in the doors grabbed what we need took 10 mins at most left and moved to next store did the same thing and so fourth. Also makes it easier if you hit stores that open an hour apart. I love these sales every year but you will not find me camping out :) I do not have anything particular to get this year but I will go for the fun of it all!! Reported on news BB Dallas, Texas atleast 10+ in line as of 10:00 tonight HAPPY SHOPPING!!!
neboo Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 Bismarck, ND. woot woot!! As of 1am. 100 people in line at Best Buy. 5-10 at Old Navy. 5-10 at Target. None anywhere else. Also, went to Walmart for Midnight buys and there was noone in line for any doorbusters in the store.
rdtsmith Posted November 27, 2009 Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) I am overseas in Germany...and our German stores were packed yesterday ON Thanksgiving (guess the Germans start early). I was able to get everything on our list online (we are also 6 hours ahead of East Coast)...lots of online stores doing before BF deals too this year I noticed...combine that with googled coupon codes....I saved lots. I'm going to head over to the Stuttgart PX and see what's going on there...lots of folks yesterday did say they were going...mostly for the camera deals and the laptop...honestly, most of the community was going ga-ga over the midnight showing of New Moon. Update, I'm back a few hours later after going at 11am....PX was just like any other day....still had some of their BF flat screen TVs available...only thing I noticed that was all gone were the digital camera deals. I bought a portable DVD player for $129 dual voltage, plays old games w/controller and picks up local TV signals with case and accessories. No waiting in line, walked right up to check out. I heard they opened up at 5am. Edited November 27, 2009 by rdtsmith adding info
