Like MJ (who has already spoken about this on YT), I can't, for the life of me, understand why would people wait for many hours in pitch dark to get into a store to save a few measly bucks.

Myself, I almost always buy at cheap stores, but I don't wait in long lines. I just do my groceries every few days. I walk into a supermarket, grab a trolley, take the stuff I need, go to checkout, pay, and leave.

I remember back years ago when I worked at Best Buy this lady threw a huge fit because I didn't know what a "raincheck" was. She was angry and said she was gonna speak to my manager and make sure I would get fired. I didn't know because I have never participated in a black friday. I have never had any interest in fighting over a TV thats $100 off at 2am.

Its funny because black friday is just a marketing ploy to sell more shit that ends up on sale anyways on another day.

Sorry, but I just don't see the utility or point in buying a new $1,000 phone every year just so that I can send an emoji that mimics me talking. Or so that people can think that i'm hot shit because I have a $1k phone.

At least they weren't waiting three hours for a free $5 chicken sandwich. LOL
