My first BLACK FRIDAY

A co-worker convinced me to go out for black friday. I was hoping that she would forget, but yesterday around 8 pm she called trying to map out a plan of attack for midnight shopping. So I stayed up and left and went to Old Navy at midnight. I didn't go in because my co-worker didn't answer her phone, so then I went to our next destination...Target.

Once I got to Target, I immediately got in line and waited in line to pick up a Nikon digital camera. After waiting in line for an hour, I got some sense and decided to look at the camera and my new friend in line stated that she would save my place because she was interested in the same camera. So I go up to look at the camera and much to both of our disappointment, the camera operated on 4 AA batteries. I ended up spending an hour in line and did not purchase a thing.

I did not experience any crazy people fighting for items, but I did experience plenty of crazy people on the streets! There were so many accidents that night and I am so thankful that I made it home safely. I have come to the conclusion that Black Friday shopping is truly not worth it, unless I am shopping online. I can say that I went through the experience, but I will not be out next year.
