ahfunaki Posted November 28, 2003 Author Share Posted November 28, 2003 1) The "cheap cheap" is after rebates 2) Get there dang early (like before the birds wake up), they have extremely limited stock on hand Yea, I know it's all rebates...but if you put it on a credit card it all works out nice...lolAnd the dang early is worth it, I think so or I wouldn't do it! lol...

maplecookie Veteran Posted November 28, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2003 We were going to go shopping today, but all three of us (parents and myself) are sick. Thank God we got our flu shots already. Good luck to those who do decide to venture out and go shopping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easton is pretty cool I love the Theater the seats are the best part. Haven't been there in a couple years, but my brother lives in a apartment complex pretty close to Polaris so I go through there a few times a year. I live up near Mansfield which just started to get good stores, and resteraunts heck our Best Buy is about a year and half old no Compusa or Microcenters up here which sucks big time the drive down to Bethal Rd, and Sawmill is a long one the construction only makes it worse.

BananaMan's Girl Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 My mother and I were on a trip to MD and our car broke down in Mansfield... we didn't think there were any people there who knew what a computer was. *chuckles* No, we just seemed to be in a very... scary part of town. I can't say anything since I never did look around the entire place. EDIT: I haven't even left my house yet. The snow is pretty, but bad for driving around these parts.

noll3095 Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Easton or Tuttle are the only good ones here IMHO. Polaris is way out of my price range, I half expect a credit check before I get in the door. Easton, at least, can still be fun to walk around.

IlliniPi Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 Go shopping? I had to work at Target today at 5 AM! Crazy ass people running around the store when we opened our doors at 6. The line to get in was down the block and cutting off the Babies R' Us entrance. :laugh: A woman who works at our store went to Best Buy at 1:30am to get in line, she felt very proud of herself for being #1 in line. Weirdos. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaise Veteran Posted November 28, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2003 ^^ I got there a half hour before Best Buy opened at 6 and was like 300 people back in line, it stayed above 50f so the nuts stayed all night in line :blink: first time I ever did the Black Friday run....never again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahfunaki Posted November 28, 2003 Author Share Posted November 28, 2003 At the wal-mart here the line went down the road, so it went all through the parking lot. And this isn't a small parking lot at all... Crazy stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hum Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 :o what's wrong with people ? ORANGE CITY, Fla. (AP) -- A mob of shoppers rushing for a sale on DVD players trampled the first woman in line and knocked her unconscious as they scrambled for the shelves at a Wal-Mart Supercenter. Patricia VanLester had her eye on a $29 DVD player, but when the siren blared at 6 a.m. Friday announcing the start to the post-Thanksgiving sale, the 41-year-old was knocked to the ground by the frenzy of shoppers behind her. "She got pushed down, and they walked over her like a herd of elephants," said VanLester's sister, Linda Ellzey. "I told them, `Stop stepping on my sister! She's on the ground!'" Ellzey said some shoppers tried to help VanLester, and one employee helped Ellzey reach her sister, but most people just continued their rush for deals. "All they cared about was a stupid DVD player," she said Saturday. Paramedics called to the store found VanLester unconscious on top of a DVD player, surrounded by shoppers seemingly oblivious to her, said Mark O'Keefe, a spokesman for EVAC Ambulance.

-=SD=- Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 We went to wal-mart at like 6am, so packed and there were no spots to park. I did however see people leave with 5+ dvd players each! Crazy people, we just drove up saw it packed and left lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aem4162 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 I saw clips on the news about people getting into fights at the doors before the stores opened. They were pushing each other back and knocking each other down...it was ****ing disgusting. People get so stupid over a sale. It's no wonder I hate Christmas.

A10 Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 My mother and I were on a trip to MD and our car broke down in Mansfield... we didn't think there were any people there who knew what a computer was. *chuckles* No, we just seemed to be in a very... scary part of town. I can't say anything since I never did look around the entire place.EDIT: I haven't even left my house yet. The snow is pretty, but bad for driving around these parts. You must have broken down in the downtown area which is sorta rough all of the stores, and malls and such are in Ontario which is the city they're in, but everyone around here just calls it Mansfield. It was packed at the Mall tonight Best Buy wasn't though it never is I wanted to pick up a marked down Microsoft Wireless-G Notebook Kit which has a instant as well as a mail-in for a grand total of 99.99 I decided against getting it tonight maybe during the week though. It snowed all day on Friday by morning my car had about 3 inches piled on top of it, and it looked like a winter wonderland looks nice, but appearances can be decieving when driving in the stuff. We went to wal-mart at like 6am, so packed and there were no spots to park.I did however see people leave with 5+ dvd players each! Crazy people, we just drove up saw it packed and left lol Our Wal-Mart is always packed at the most their are three or four empty parking spaces available during normal days the check out area is always packed to the limit it's also pretty dirty inside. They're rumored to be moving from their current location to the vacant store that used to be a Super Kmart so hopefully they build a similar store there so Meijer isn't the only large grocery store in the area now you want to talk packed walk down those aisles and tell me which store is worse.
