Artrageous Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 My wife, her mom and sister went to get online at Circuit City at 10:30 and there was already 30 people ahead of them. Last year they were first in line when they arrived at 10:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boucher0911 Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Drove by BB at about 8:00 tonight and there were already about 20 people and a few police cars by the entrance! And this is at a smaller volume store than most! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
222deal Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Thanks for saving me the trip. I was debating on heading out myself but if its this long a line at Best Buy the night before, I'll pass on getting involved this year. I drove bye the Richmond, VA best buy and circuit city at 8:30 and the line was around the building at best buy and about 15 at cc. This is the chesterfield location. I think it is around 65 degrees.

Brad Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Here's a reconnaissance photo taken minutes ago by our very own BF forum mod Aaron. This is at a Wal-Mart and the guy on the right is "guarding" the BF goods, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcster Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 As of 8 pm, in Allentown, PA, there was 30 people in line for CC (3 in a huge tent) and easily 150+ in line at Best Buy (lots of tents at BB). Tonight's lows will be in the 40s (45 right now) and a WICKED wind! http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Weather/28_2_2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jephilip Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 There were about 50 in line and a TV crew at the Tenleytown Best Buy in DC around 10:45. It is in the mid 40s and the wind has finally begun to die down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarknessAlive Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I just got a text update from my husband (who is currently 10th in line at CompUSA - been there for about an hour or so). At CompUSA there are less than 20 people in line. We drove around there at 6pm and there were 15, but some or all of those must have went into the 9-12 sale. The line for the Best Buy is wrapped around the building! This is in the Robinson area of Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demontooth Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Good luck everyone, I'm going to go to bed and leave the 20 degree temperatures for the people who are way more brave than I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Well, Im off of here. Leaving in an hour or so. SUPER cold here in Ohio. Wind is absolutely wicked. Oh joy. HOpe you all stay warm (or try too!). Im just thankful that I don't have to go to BB or CC. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommy2bugs Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 MIL is #11 in Best Buy line right now. She got in line around 1 or 2 this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyatt Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I left the Compusa in Baton Rouge. LA about 30 minutes ago, and the line was still wrapped along the side of the building. They started letting people in around 8:40ish, and are letting them in a group at a time. Midnight may come and go and some of those people may not get in!! There were quite a few people at best buy, but they were all huddled up on the ground and the line of shopping carts obscured my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgeaux Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 baton rouge...BB has around 200+, dh said. He's #4. It's in the 30's tonight with high winds. Some people hardly brought anything for warmth. One man I watched dropped his teenage boy off with a hoodie, shorts, about 4 candy bars at noon today!!! He's going to have a rough night!

tootsieroll23 Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Went by our Best Buy at 9:30 and there were already 15-20 tents set up and people lined up behind the tents. Target had about 6 people. Staples had a couple of tents and about four other people. Not sure if we will even be going out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockmanjr Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Just passed by the Circuit city at union square in Manhattan there were easily 30+ people online there as of 2230. Anyone who comes now will most likely not even have a chance at any of the big doorbuster items which is kind of scary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
