I just got home from a 9 hour stint at walmart (working, not shopping). At 3 am, there were already more than 50 people in line. By the time the doors opened at 5 am, there were well over 150 people lined up around the building. I'll have to say though, that I really do love this day. It's so...full of excitement. People are so patient and nice, and kind. Sounds ironic, but it's the truth. Lots of stores had some great deals...but sadly it seems like you had to be in line by 8 pm the night before to get any of them. (Yep, people lined up outside the door at my local walmart at 8 pm Thursday night). I just don't have the guts to do that, especially when it's 17 degrees outside, and a windchill close to 0.
So, best of luck to all who hit the stores today. I hope you come away with some great deals! I think I'm going to go tommorow, and take advantage of the stores that are running 2 day sales.
