My neighbors went out at 3am! the store opened at 4. They separated and each took one store. As they doors opened they each had their eye on ONE special gift. Both stores were "sold out" by the time they got to the doorway. They were like 25th in line or something. Its a rip off! They use this really great item with a low low price, and then only have 15 in stock! She said most things high on their list were "out of stock" by the time they hit the door. They are both half frozen, over tired and disappointed. If you are willing to camp out on the sidewalks for two days you may get the item you seek.

I will do my cyber shopping. safe and warm in my PJs

Unless somebody was selling new Subarus for a hundred bucks, I can't imagine what would be worth waiting in line in the middle of the night for.

I've figured it out. Most women use Black Friday shopping as an excuse to escape the house filled with ornery family members and leftover dishes to clean up! They know nobody will want to go with them! They can sneak out of the house at 3 AM and it doesn't look so suspicious!

Not unless taxes are paid and it comes with a prepaid chauffeur..

Genius! Why don't I think of these things?
