It's like Disneyland, the lines for Black Friday, people lining up for hours trying to get their hands on the next toy. I did some quick research on two stores today. Walmart's "one-hour in stock GUARANTEE" is missing a little something. It's not exactly a guarantee. They will be passing out tickets Thursday night, and they do have a LIMITED quantity of tickets. The guarantee says that if you don't get an item that night, you will get a ticket to purchase the item before Christmas for the Black Friday price. Sorry folks, you will have to line up for these tickets...no waiting till 6:45 to grab those doorbusters.
Speaking of which, Target takes Doorbusters to a whole new level. They will be opening up at 8 this year, Target will not be passing out tickets for doorbuster items. I called three stores and was told this. (Tickets may be handed out for PS4s and Xbox ONEs) From personal experience, they usher everyone in, about 30 at a time, but as soon as you BUST through the DOORS it is mayhem! You just run to get your items... One of my least favorite experiences.
Best Buy........ if you're not currently camped out reading this right now. You probably won't be able to get the hot doorbuster items from them. (Which I still can't figure what their hot doorbuster items are.)
So there you have it. Black Friday Away!
