krstee Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Last year, I tried to take some pictures of the crazy lines at Walmart on BF but they were so long, the pix I took didn't do them justice. I was wondering if anyone else planned on taking pix of their crazy lines or crowds so they could share them here? For me, I may try again - but it all depends on where I end up shopping.

starshine Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 LOL That last pic is so true. IF you don't move you get a horn up the butt or a cart on your ankle. Which happened to me last year. OUCH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebirth Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I don't know where I saw it but I saw it on the internet where one BB said "We must protect this house". lol. If you watch football, you know who says that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 That first pic looks like Kmart on turkey day trying to get the gameboy advance games. LOL. Every year you are in line and try to keep it that way, but those who were later in line rush you and try to grab them as the associates are passing them out. Its a mess. Although I go back every year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starshine Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Man I'm glad I live in the sticks where people are to polite to really kick butt on BF. People are usually pretty calm and orderely except those line crashers that come at 4:55 they must die!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckbrain Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I have no pictures of the mayhem I've been thru on BF's but I sure will take some pics this year...I've recruited a bunch of my friends (some Gottadeal newbies!) and we've got our game plan staked out and ready...Every new thread that's started gets me more amped for the day!

jenilyn Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Check out this Best Buy video of Black Friday 2004: No joke my BB was worse I SWEAR!!!!! Its located next to a big barnes and noble that is roughly the same size and its like a quad of buildings , the back 2 being storage for each of those retailers. Did that make sense? Well anyway the line began thanksgiving day mid afternnoon and by 3 am BF morning it had wrapped around the building i think we counted 3 times. They let like 2 dozen people in at a time and there were several fights outside as ppl got impatient thru out the morning. We stayed CLEAR THE HELL AWAY from there.I had a ball everywhere else we went tho, last yr was my 1st BF trip and Id do it again each year, in fact myself, MIL and aunt and my best friend are having a sleep over at the MIL's this year, girls nite!!!! I cant wait already!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stationchief Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 The people in charge of that WM vid were just completely unprepared for what was about to happen. Very sad. I didn't manage to get any pics of our WM line last year, but fortunately it wasn't as bad as that. We had security. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libra Angel Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Thanks to all who provided the pics and vids. :) Those were funny yet frightening. I keep telling myself I will be prepared for my Official 1st Black Friday outing (last year was supposed to be it but... ) yet I'm not so sure, well actually I'm sure I'll be okay if I am at the front of the line. I'm a fast runner if/when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue1230 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I had thought of taking a camera and taking pictures of my friends and I and the lines... BUT then I have announced to the whole of the populace that i have a very nice camera ( thanks to my DH on the bday!) whether on my person-or if I leave it in the car like 20 minutes before opening- then those same people know there is a very nice camera in a very nice truck parked _oh just 10 yards from where they are standing....
