Black Friday 101 - by Prof. HypnoToad
1. Turn off the cell phone - no distractions from those pesky loved ones!

2. Look out for leaks. Some people will pee their pants instead of going to the bathroom because getting that Playstation Wii is far more important!

3. Go and wait in the overnight queue! Stay there so you DO get the value! Or at least get to convince a bunch of overweight security guards you're not a crook and dare them to chase you...

4. Compare prices by using your cell phone to find out how low a product is! 1-888-DO-FRUCALL -- meanwhile, the other people in the store know better and will just grab things what they can; if they drove to another store to save another 72 cents, they're taking a big risk... (yes, that is a real number for that purpose... :eyes: )

5. Get a gun! If somebody wants that damn Elmo for his snotty brat, you use the butt of the gun and knock him out! YOU deserve that Elmo!!

More to follow...

5. If weather dictates, take a North Face Sub-Zero down sleeping bag.
And, you can use it to haul the loot home.
