In general, people who show up for things like this have no concept of the value of their time. I don't know about them, but 6 hrs of my time (assuming one is camping out for the night) is worth more than saving $50 on a DVD recorder.   </p><p>That said, there's a way to beat the system -- show up VERY early, as in a day or two before.  When you've seen what WILL be on sale, head into the store a day or two before and locate the items you wish to purchase.  Often, they're already stocked, just not on sale until the magic date.  Grab a few of them and proceed to hide them in various parts of the store.  Areas behind displays, and behind slow-moving items work very well for this.  (Hint: at Best Buy, you can often chuck things behind the appliances and no one will find it for weeks/months)  </p><p>Overall, most of the Black Friday deals I saw weren't even priced as good as what things normally sell for online.  The retails, and their come-ons, can stuff it.  </p>        </div>	<div class=\"reply\">	 <div class=\"reply-button\"><a title=\"Reply\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onclick=\"mtReplyCommentOnClick(666792, 'FLConsumer')\">Reply</a></div>		<!-- if it's a top level category ' -->		    </div><!-- end reply- button -->    </div></div>        <!-- Display comment (top level parent) -->    </div>","<div class=\"comments-content\">        <div class=\"comment\" id=\"comment-666838\">    <div class=\"inner\">	 <div class=\"user-pic\">        <a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;amp;blog_id=1&amp;amp;id=37336\"><img        src=\"/css/images/default.gif\"        width=\"60\" height=\"60\" alt=\"user-pic\" /></a>    </div>        <div class=\"comment-header\">            <div class=\"asset-meta\"> <div class=\"vcard author\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-cp.cgi?__mode=view&amp;blog_id=1&amp;id=37336\">mikehager66</a>        </div>				<div class=\"comment-date\"><a href=\"http://consumerist.com/2006/11/fight-videos-black-friday-roundup.html#comment-666838\"><abbr class=\"published\" title=\"2006-11-25T09:22:45-05:00\">November 25, 2006  9:22 AM</abbr></a></div>				<div class=\"comment-moderate\"><span><a href=\"javascript:moderateComment(666838);\">Moderate</a> |</span><a href='javascript:void(0)' onClick=\"return moderate(this, 'http://consumerist.com/cgi-bin/mt/plugins/Moderate/moderate.cgi?__mode=flag&comment_id=666838');\">Flag for review</a></div>            </div>        </div><!-- end comment header -->        <div class=\"comment-content\">            <p>It reminds me of a pack of piranha descending on a dead carcass.

I went for my first time this year, and it'll definitely be my last. It reminds me why I'm a sociopath.  I waited a half an hour before the store opened, and once it opened, the old man in front of me rammed a carriage at me when I ran for the tv's, because everybody wanted one.  I told him that he's lucky i'm not the reaper. There were only 9 in the store, and some jerk grabbed 4 which goes to show how greedy people get over garbage, and think that they can turn a profit on ebay over outdated merchandise.

I pretty much got everything I went out for. Lots of people but I was able to get in and out pretty good. My saving for the gifts that I am giving was a good 500.00 so YES it was well worth it to me.
