I'm with you. My cousins have camped out overnight before to get "the big deal" and I can't imagine why -- how much time do you waste just to save a little bit of money and deal with pushing/shoving/crowds?!
Camping out? Are you serious? That's just ridiculous. . I mean, I can't shop when it's too crowded anyway. Shopping should be something fun; not a freaking push push shove spend as much as you can insanity. Lol.
Personally, I think that many of the people shopping are grabbing stuff for resale on Ebay later on. The people standing in lines at 12:01am on Black Friday are looking to get huge tvs and things like that. Not necessarily Christmas presents.
Black Friday is horrible. They are starting to open stores on Thanksgiving Day, so people working in the stores are forced to go to work in the afternoon. Ridiculous!
And Cyber Monday is old news, too. Way back when people did not have Net access so much at home, they shopped at work the Monday after Thanksgiving. Now you can just do it on your phone, so no need to wait until Monday.
I know, but still- the idea. I mean, standing around from that time for hours and hours? It is such a waste of time. PLUS all the crowds? Stressful or what! Shopping should be a peaceful, happy, fun experience. Not a stressful, grab-whatever-you-can experience -_-
That's not cool. We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here, but from what I've heard of it and knowing of people that celebrate it, that shouldn't be allowed. It is a day to feast and be with your loved ones. That shouldn't be taken away because of greedy vultures. Ug.
Now I think about it, this Cyber Monday doesn't seem as annoying as Black Friday. At least you can be in the comfort of your home and shop. You don't need to deal with any stupidity, like queuing out for hours and shoving as many people as you can to buy some junk.
