The Happiest Day of the Year ... - 11-22-2006, 07:02 AM


So, who is going Black Friday shopping? And if you are, what "super fantastic can't pass this deal up or my head will implode" special are ya angling for?

As for me and Pika, we never miss a Black Friday. We love the chaos and greed, the danger and intrigue, the glitz and glamour. It's right up there with shopping on Christmas Eve. And the best part is that we almost never shop the shelves. We like to go around shopping in other people's carts.

We wait until we see what we want. We wait until the cart is ungaurded. Then while Pika is the lookout I swipe said item! I'm all excited already!

So, good hunting to all that will be joining our Black Friday excursion. And just a friendly reminder, don't leave your cart ungaurded. Because Pika and I will get your stuff!!!!!

Prophet out.

I absolutely hate crowds. I think it's because I'm REALLY anti-social. But lucky for me, I have to work friday, so I'll be able to avoid 99.9999999999999999999999999% of the crowds.

Mental Note: Go to Staples.

Along those lines, I forgot to post these earlier.

First!...I Don't Like the term Black Friday! It makes the start of the Christmas Season sound Evil.

I too hate the crowds, so I will stay away from the big stores. I used to have to deal with the retail crowds for a living. And since I don't have to do that any longer, I will avoid all of the whole fanatical elbow gouging fiasco like a plague!

Best Buy, $129 Samsung 19" widescreen LCD for my 2nd monitor so I can dump the CRT finally.

I'm getting a 20D. Maybe not on Friday exactly, but sometime in the next day or two, at any rate.

That is exactly why they call it black friday.

Probably online. I don't know of any other places with new/refurbished 20D's.

I would buy used, but I'm a little wary of actuations... that's my primary reason for moving away from the 1D, after all.
