enoreeman Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Some people must not have to earn a living, thus having all this time on their hands to wait in pointless lines, for so called deals. just think how many kids that will do without you could help with all that extra time to waste on a line and money spent on gas for generators, etc,etc. Lets see......a week in line at Minimum wage of $7.75 per hour times 40 hours.....$310 minimum in lost wages...times people in your group..... WOW with 5 people in your group....that savings you got only cost you $1550 for those BIG savings.

Maybe they volunteer the other 350 odd days and donate to toys to tots. Get off your high horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing To me that it's so easy for people to assume the negative instead of the positive. You don't know these people and have no idea what their reality is...

zim05 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Just a dose of the real world, not the fantasy world of shopaholics Sometimes people's "fantasy worlds" are they only way they can deal with their real world. I guess you do not participate in such things as reading, watching movies, playing pretend with your kids or daydreaming. If people want to spend their time surrounded by family and/or friends waiting in line and making memories, having some laughs and creating traditions, who are you to judge? The problem with society is that people think it's their role to judge and "police" people whom they know nothing about. What seems stupid or trivial to some, means the world to others. To those in line - Keep up the updating and good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people could be unemployed, or in college and only way to afford to get something.. you are right, a dose of the real world is what you seem to be getting.. wake up and smell the coffee, not everyone in life has money to burn. Would you like to hand some money out so others do not have to wait in long lines to get the deals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebraskaparkfan Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Could be on vacation...could be college kids earning some money holding places in line....I actually wonder more about people waiting in lines to see a movie.

Looks to me like the reason is a pathetic attempt to make yourself feel better about being such a wanker that you have to insult others. I wonder if you are aware of how many people are laughing at you? I'd wait in line for several days for some anti-troll spray so that I could hose you down with it. Geesh, just go away!

We have some trolls that come out to heckle, but when they find out that some of the deals developed like the WII/TV combo and the $189 Laptop, they change their demeanor and drive away....

rollingrock411 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Got back from Walmart in Buffalo,NY around 4pm,a lot of people just walking around and a lot of pallets out for the midnight deals,but no ballons to mark the big ticket items and no actual formed lines. Seems like it would be very easy to go in at any time and stock up on most of the 12:01 deals and just hold them in your cart,no one is really watching any of pallets including the videos and games and get what you need with out a real hassel.
