Black Friday - chaos theory, but consumerism at its best!

As a broke grad student I am looking forward to buying stuff at Black Friday. My first experience with black friday was an 8 hour wait for a $350 laptop. I know, great deal, isnt it?

Black Friday Rule #1
Always brag about the deals you got.

Black Friday Rule #2
Ignore the ebay resellers who are looking for profit, you're doing this for survival.

Black Friday Rule #3
Nothing much has changed since last year. Its very likely you wont get those free flash drives.

Black Friday Rule #4
Go with a bunch of friends so you don't question the meaning of life while freezing in a long line.

Black Friday Rule #5
There are black friday sale days on saturday and sunday as well, dont worry.

Good luck fellow grad students, may you jam yourself at the door of best buy and be confused by the girl at the cash register who tells you its 20% discount on 30% on 10%, got that?

And always remember rule #1, let me know your loot for the year!
