Many don't even sleep the night before, but wait for "Black Friday". That's why it's called "Black", which I think is a racist terminology.

Its sad imo - people should be with family, not trying to save 20% on a tv.
Its nuts.... cars everywhere... mall parking lots so full people are parking all over the grass, the road, trucks parked in the flower beds...... people getting into fist fights over toys in the isles...... Imagine 500,000 women converging on one mall because Belk was giving away thier shoes.... thats black friday.
My mother and grandmother stratogize Thanksgiving night with a map of the area and stores and list of items at each store they are heading for. Then they leave the house at about 5 AM......... craziness....
Normally, I take that Friday off and stay at home all day. It is NOT a day to drive ANYWHERE.

Screw that. If the only way I am going to get that TV for christmas is if the price drops 20% then somebody's ass better be at the store to get it
I just don't get people camping out at stores so they can get the am deals for stuff. I don't get to see my extended family often as we're all over the US so when we all get together for something, I'd rather be with them than chatting up a Best Buy employee for my 20% discount on a digital camera.
