Thar Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_adgG8Ba2Q I think this is happening in literally every Wal-Mart in the world. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Crouton Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Can't fault them. Extra low prices, after all. It's Black Friday. Violence is normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Saw the parking lot coming home at 6pm last night. IT WAS FULL. And the back was too. IT WASN'T EVEN 8 YET! Never been inside during this time. Any testimonies? The video was hilarious. XD Idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 I drove into the plaza that Walmart was in just to see how full the lot is. There are 3 major stores in that plaza as well as 2 outlets. The place has got to be a square mile in size, and it's overflowing to the point where people are parked on the shoulder of the highway that borders it. I also heard in some places that people are stabbing people for good parking spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 I work at Wal-Mart. Ours had a sale yesterday at 6 and 8 P.M., that was crazy. They had one today 8-2. I worked during it. Wasn't as terrible as everyone says, but I am worn out. It was still crazy busy. But, no, not as much as I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cin Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Glad I live in the UK. Then again I avoid the City Centre unless I'm at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Starrk Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 I guess Black Friday is necessary to show the human need for materialism. It's disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A._Sakuyamon Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Know what's even more interesting? The people getting injured will be paying a ton due to the medical bills. So much for savings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwarven King Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 I hate Black Friday. Whoever came up with the idea needs to be slapped. ._. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Know what's even more interesting? The people getting injured will be paying a ton due to the medical bills. So much for savings. Yeah, it's ironic that people are going to be spending MORE on their injuries just because they wanted to spend LESS on stuff. When things go on sale for that low, people are going to go berserk and buy in bulk. (The last time I went to Black Friday at 12 am at Walmart, a couple men ripped open boxes of toys like wolves do on caught meat...tear into them violently) Though I don't recall anyone getting trampled at a Walmart where I live [as far as I'm concerned since I just tell parents to buy stuff on Amazon or go Walmart/Target on the normal days when people aren't crazy] I used to go, but lines were crowded as hell (especially when they did it at 4-5 am in the morning) and whatever was mentioned above. As much as I'd like to get stuff for less, definitely not worth getting trampled over or instigating fights with crazy people trying to buy 10+ flatscreen TVs or whatever.

Thar Posted December 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Online is the way to go... or at least someplace other than Walmart or Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 That also includes the shopping malls; not sure how violent people are over there on Black Fridays but there is some degree of violence/disorder occurring there. They're crowded too (one of my friends told me that all of the major centers down here had no parking [and people lining up hours before the sales even start]. Mind you, they're relatively large as well) But yeah, online is safer (though there's the risk of them not having stuff you want or they won't ship certain items to places b/c of distance problems). Or just wait until after Xmas is over when people are either returning stuff they don't want or retailers try to get rid of extras. (It's sad that these are grown adults fighting over stuff like little children, especially when there actually are a few kids who go to these things. Way to set an example...)

Miror B Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Me and my family went to a black friday sale because we had actually wanted a tv for a while by then. Never again. Fuck savings, I'm not standing in a 2 hour line that actually leads nowhere ever again, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddamnit names are a pain Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 It's really called Black Friday because people finally realize they would be better off at a Black Market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
