I always thought that guy had a heart attack or something because of being knocked down. I didn't think he literally got trampled TO DEATH. #blackfriday2009
@Nathan Obbards: No need. Just take my advice. When you go into the door, body check the old lady next to you into one of the end displays...
"Why the old lady?" you may ask. Let me explain. A teenager or young adult will take at least 3 or 4 hits to take down, and they will likely get up within a few seconds. The old woman on the other hand will likely only take one hit and stay down. Eliminating the weaker members of the herd will increase the likelihood that you will get the deal you were looking for, as well as cull the weak from the gene pool.
@ceilingFANBOY: I'm supposedly working 4 am - 4pm and I have heard no such thing about a 1 3/4 hour movie. i totally regret aggreeing to this because Im a spineless bitch of a human being and will proably cry when people start yelling at me because im out of whatever hot ticket item it was they wanted. #blackfriday2009
@luciusad2004: I'm working 2am-10am. My cheap ass store won't let us have overtime, even this time of year. Instead they cut our hours so we barely get 34 if we are full time while expecting us electronics associates to watch sporting goods, photo, hardware, and clean up the mess in domestics and hardware every couple of hours while only having 2 people in our department. Fuck this stupid "zone" shit.
@nutbastard: ... ...well, you can't blame me, I was trying to find the pun and when I saw the word pun and I remembered the pictures and... yeah, there's no getting out of this hole. #blackfriday2009
If you make people form lines for products, you're just going to have people show up early to get in line with no intention of buying so that they can sell their spot for cash. #blackfriday2009
@phor11: The plan developed uses the aisles of the store to create the lines and the lines will have associates at the beginning of the lines and at several points along the line. This will make it rather difficult to sell a spot in line. #blackfriday2009
Spread the word to those mindless buffoons that push their way into stores to get shit they don't need. Happy Holidays, you credit-guzzling jackholes. #blackfriday2009
on that note - you know how you can't buy beer with food stamps?
well, why the fuck CAN you buy an HDTV with motherfucking welfare checks? or unemployment checks?
it came to me the other day how obvious of a loophole that is. as a Libertarian i'm fundamentally opposed to social programs like welfare, but given that it already exists, i'd at least like to see some sort of regulation on the spending of that money. the fact that somewhere, someone on the dole is playing CoD MW2 on a bigger TV than i have while I'm at work rather sickens me. #blackfriday2009
Interesting. This article seems to imply that Walmart is considering some form of organizational skills, which leads me to believe that this will only cause a paradox the likes of which will destroy our timeline. Cause seriously, all the Walmarts I've been to look like Santa Claus and Hanna Montana did a joint suicide bombing in a warehouse. #blackfriday2009
They are also going to have crappier deals this year:
Ramen noodles-$14
Pringles-4/$139
16TB of cloud storage-$4096
Bananas-$87/lb
It's a shame too, there's not much there for the kids. =( #blackfriday2009
@ripfire: You're assuming they (and their Rascal scooters) could fit through that. You have to remember, this is WalMart we're talking about. #blackfriday2009

Sometimes you can find deals on stuff you DO need. Or your wife says you need it.
Is there a difference? #blackfriday2009
