BestBuy Black Friday Sales Madness Experience

Check out http://BestDealsBlackFriday.net for the best Black Friday deals!

Here's a short clip I made of Black Friday Madness Sales experience, this is my first actual shopping on Black Friday.
I went to San Francisco BestBuy Store #187 at around 3:05AM, comforted to find others waiting in line.
It rained lightly but miraculously the skies cleared up as doors opened up at 5AM. There were a lot of SF officers on duty, perhaps why people didn't go too crazy at the lines, a good thing I tell you.
It wasn't as crazy as I expected but rather it seemed like another busy day in San Francisco, perhaps a bit more. Anyways, it was a pleasant experience to see everyone so anxious to go shopping so early, it's a whole another world out there.
I used my new Canon EOS 7d camera with 28-135mm zoom lens, bear with me as I learn how to use my camera, I am a complete newbie when it comes to DSLRs, any pointers appreciated.
And thanks to James for the interview, I hope you daughter enjoys the iPhone you got up so early for!
Happy Black Friday!
Well, also check out photos and detailed write-up over here on my blog:

Do you think the nintendo 3ds will go on sale during black Friday??

[zedomax]

[rushin2]

Are they all waiting for bread? Why is the line?

[zedomax]

@rushin2 Yes, they are waiting for free bread on Black Friday, of course duh.

The quality of the camera makes you a pro!

[zedomax]

Right, that's why I got the Canon 7D, not a pro yet though. :)

Omg I went black friday shopping with my mom, aunt and cousin. ( I am 11 )

This was on the night of THanksgiving after people left.]

We waited outside of target for a 46 inch Westing House tv

They let 30 people in every 15 sec. We were the 20-22nd people to go in.

I got hit with a cart and pushed by people

But we got a tv after waiting in line for 6 hrs. Doors opened at 12:00 Midnight

It was so fun I am going next year

This is how customers get rewarded each year for shopping at all the big chain stores. Standing in the wet cold weather,at the wee hours of the morning,on there day off work. Just to feel numb enough not to feel stomped on,or the pic-pocket reaching in your purse,back-pack,or back pocket. If carrying lots of money,credit cards,or gift cards,isn't enough to worry

about. 63% of merchandise is returned before the New Year? Broken,missing parts,computer chip not there,electronics fried. Great video

[elevenames]

what does this have to do with the birth of christ? christmas is not supposed to be about this...im not a christian, but i bet 80% of the people in line claim to be. poor jesus, this is what people do instead of going to his birthday party hahaha

[modernwarfare2468]

Are people going to really waste there time waiting in line?? Why not go the next day, because they will bring more stuff to buy and while people are waiting in line other people are sleeping in their homes until the next day duh! thumbs up if u agree with me seriously.
