I only shop online black Friday sales, but are you one that gets up early and go to several stores on Black Friday?

Done that twice. The first time was a few years ago, getting my laptop at Best Buy (if I remembered right). The second time was last year, went to the Target that was close to my house, saw the looooong line and left.

I've done Black Friday shopping for the last couple years. I think I'm done with it though.
Cyber Monday is when most people shop online and, if you know where to look, online retailers are usually cheaper than in-store prices.

I went with my sister last year. We had never done it before and decided to make an event of it. The only place the line was bad was at Kohl's at like, 4 in the morning. We shopped from 1-7 or so, and had a great time.

I go online--forget the stores!

NO WAY! Everytime my wife goes she never gets anything advertised with a good price. That whole online black friday is a great idea though!

I've worked the service industry on Black Fridays (both retail and food) ... it destroys my faith in an honorable and spiritual humanity. People go insane for the stupidest things. Not to mention the amount of deaths from stampeding and fighting over junk is on the rise.
In a few words: NO. I HATE CROWDS.

I have occasionally, but only if there's something I really want and I think there's a chance I could get it. Some items they advertise you just don't stand a chance at. I wouldn't wait in a line where I'm going to get trampled. I wouldn't be the easiest guy to trample over, but why take the chance? It's just stuff.

I have a couple times. I think it's both fun, and horrifying.
Big crowds scare me. But I love the adrenaline rush I get.

I've been in the retail aspect of Black Friday once. This was 2002 at a Glow store. We were so fricken dead that year. It was also at a mall too. I think "big box" stores have the early/long lines and the mall stores have the long shopping season.

Went to one Black Friday sale and will never do it again.

Avoid it like the plague.

We stay home and shop online.

I do! I love black friday. It's a rush and getting great deals feels good too.

The only time I went was back in 1999 and my mom bought me my first computer because I was going to college that following May and she knew we would need it and it was a good deal. It was a horrible experience so I've vowed to never do it again.
Last year my husband and I shopped online and and I found the boy's Christmas toys on sale and he bought a big screen tv for a really good deal at Tiger Direct. Tiger ran their sale from Friday to Monday, and I think this is what I will do this year as well.
Sam aka Julia, I don't have a sister to go shopping with so it would just be me, and I don't particularly like shopping in stores in the first place.

I do EVERYTHING online. I got my husband a $200 Nook for $81 last year with link -- they post all the deals and you have to check the website nonstop on Black Friday so you don't miss a good one.
