Sam's Club might not be doing it this year but it's still worth it to check. They always have free breakfast (bagels, fruit, biscuits, vitamin water, juice, coffee, yogurt, etc). They don't advertise it and I'm not sure it's true of every location but the one in Chesapeake, VA (Chesapeake Square) does every year. You don't have to buy anything either.

I want best buy's so bad. Their line is always ridiculous though.

[LindsayLin]

Sweet! I can't wait for Targets ad to come out!

[xkrazybaby67x]

does REI have one? i have gift cards and i need a blow up mattress and a cast iron dutch oven

i guess i could go to bass pro shop. it's much further away and by a crazy ass mall though

[chriswifey]

I used to work at best buy and black fridays were fun as hell to work..lol You could work alllll day if you wanted. The lines are crazy but most best buys have a serious orderly system. We spent weeks learning how everything was gonna work, where everything would be etc..

[SammaJamma]

I'll be on planes all day on black friday! But I still have cyber monday!

[bb1982]

[His*PITA*]

i used to think the same thing. last year was my first year going actually. we went to sports authority and got ALL of our snowboarding/skiing gear for like WAY less than 50% off! it was awesome and the crowds were NOT bad at all. we went about an hour and half after the doors opened.

yes, places like best buy are going to be WAY more crowded, but if you're looking for something a little more unique, you'll be safe. we went to best buy on black friday too for a GPS system, we got there about 3 hours after the doors opened and it wasn't bad AT ALL.

and I hate crowds.
