Black Friday - where people go nuts trying to get that special gift at a very low price. And what everyone else here already said. One year I went out to Walmart at like 5 am on black friday and you could hardly move thru the store there were so many people and so much crap piled in the aisles. I swore then I would never do it again, and I haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
