Re: Black Friday/Sales Melee
You must have gotten in too late. All the blu's were available when I logged on and ordered.
Well I did the majority of my shopping online this year.............YES YES YES! But there were still items that were "in store only" that I had to run out and get. I bought my mother a diamond tennis bracelet that was in store only and when I got there they had TWO only! One was white gold and one was yellow gold. I looked at the sales lady and told her that it was a scam to get people to buy a more expensive one when they were out and I was really disappointed in them. I'll think twice before shopping there again. I was spending a good chunk of change on the one I bought so upgrading because they were out of it would have hit my pocketbook hard.
I can stand the traffic. I can stand the noise. I can stand the crowds. What I can't stand is the rudeness. People bashing into you without so much as an "Excuse me." People not holding doors open for people in need. People thinking that they are better than others so they deserve to skip to the front of the line. I had to speak up at one store when this happened. There was one cashier and about 20 people in line. They finally decided to open another register and as the girl was going to it she specifically said "Can I help the next person in line." So 3 people standing dead last go running up. I stepped forward and said "Excuse me, she said the NEXT person in line and not the LAST person in line. Could you please go back to the end of the line and let this woman (old lady in front of me) check out?" Several people clapped and I got the stares of death from the 3 that had to move back into line. One of the three went "Well I never!" and I said "Yes, I never seen such rudeness either. Skipping in line is for 5 year olds." LOL
Well........40 + hours with no sleep here so I think I better take a little nap before supper. Looks like I might actually get to bed at a decent time tonight...........probably cause I'll just pass out! LOL
