After showing upat Best Buy @ Midnight waiting for Black friday sales to begin, I fire up my DS and get to know a few people in line infront of me. After about 4 hours of waiting to get inside to hopefully score a new 32" LCD HDTV and/or a Laptop, store people come out side to pass out maps and give directions on what to do and where to go(he told us to place our orders for the TV next to Car Audio).
When we finally get let into the store @ 5am, I rush immediately to the spot the store guy told me to go to get my TV only to find out that he mis-directed me. To the car audio people tell me(and another kid) to goto to Home Theater, so thats were I run to. When I get to Home Theater he tells me the 32" I'm looking for is over by the Pink balloons next to the front door. Now I've made a complete trip around the store looking for where to get this TV. The guy next to the Pink Balloons tells me to goto Home Theater to get the 32" I've been looking for.
Only now when I get back to Home Theater, there is a huge line, and I'm at the back of it. I wanted to strangle the guy that Originally gave me wrong directions and the guy at Home Theater that also gave me wrong directions.after about 45 minutes of waiting in this line, which has barely moved, I see the little kid that went to car audio with me, and he had the 32" TV we were looking for. After another 25 minutes of waiting and only 10 miore people infront of me, they announce that there are "NO MORE 32" LCD ON SALE!!!!"
. I was heated! 6 hours of waiting with 5 of it in the freezing cold and all for nothing.
I rush into the parking lot hop into my car and speed off to Circuit City where my back up TV and laptop are at. I arrive at Circuit City @ 6:15am this morning. Since I happen to work right next door to CC I also know a few people that work there and it came in real handy to. I happen to get the last voucher for the 32" TV and I managed to skip the impossibly long line that stretched across the entire store(my boy works at the register) and I had my TV in my car and was driving away all by 6:30. I wish I had just slept in and went straight to CC, it would've been 45 minutes from out of bed to back in it again.
Looks like I got my best buy at Circuit City. Anyone else do some shopping for Black Friday?
