andreadawn45 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Ok, If it weren't for everyone on here, I wouldn't have gotten what I wanted because I would have showed up at BB way too late. Cousin and I get there at 10:00 pm. We are 60th and 61st in line! Long story short, we got the vouchers for the emachines we were after, and the Kodak digicamara. The best part... They come back out after handing out vouchers, and say they are going to have Personal Shopping Assistants for those who want them for the first 60 or so people. It starts getting a little crazy at this point, but we managed to get a PSA, and I literally think we were the LAST ones to get one. We told him what all we wanted, and he made out an invoice/reciept type thing. 4:40 our PSA comes out and says he has everything we wanted loaded in a cart. 4:45, he comes back and gets the 6 people he was helping (along with all the other PSA's grabbing their people), and we get an escort in to the building 15 min early, past everyone that had either butted, or didn't take advantage of the PSA!!! We get in a very short line in the customer service area (I think they had everyone spread out at different registers all over the store). 5:00 we watch everyone pour in. 5:15 I am in my car on the way to TRU!!!! TRU was supposed to open at 6:00, I got there at 5:20, they let us in at 5:25!! Get everything I need there, head to Walgreens, only because I was done shopping and didn't want to go home yet. Went into a 24 hour Walgreens at 6:30 (no one there) and we could go ahead and get whatever we wanted, but couldn't check out until 7:00. Shopped until 6:55, checked out a 7:05, and was on my way home!!! YEAH! Even though I just lurked most of the time, if it weren't for you all, I seriously would have been way to late for the BB stuff. I heard the people who were first got there at 4:00 pm Thanksgiving Day! WHOA! Anyway, thanks for all the help and advice on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreadawn45 Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 PS- It was only 18-20 degrees out last night! Of course the coldest night we've had so far. I'm in Springfield Missouri, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreadawn45 Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 That reminds me, they also threw out a TON of Geek Squad shirts, and passed out free coffee and donuts from Krispy Kreme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
