It is traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year. Some stores open at 4 or 5 am, and the masses are lined up waiting for the doors to open. Retailers advertise limited quantities of things (electronics, etc.) at super great prices. When the doors open, people run each other down to get the one TV or laptop or whatever at the fantastic advertised price. The idea is to get the masses shopping. Even if the item they wanted is "sold out", people will probably buy other things while they are in the store. Black Friday is the day that can make or break retailers. By having a few items on sale, they hope to draw in enough business to be in the "black". Black Friday is so big, that economic forecasts are made on the buying trends of American consumers for the rest of the year, just based on this one day. The evening news always runs tape showing somebody getting knocked down when store doors open.
Black Friday is completly retarded.. Why would people spend insane amounts of money? All I got today was some delicious pulled pork BBQ($7), 3 baby pbass($18), 30 feeder guppies($3) and 1 Oz of Black Worms($2)..
So total for me is $30.

Went to Black Friday for the first time today and totally hated it. I was asked by the GF to go to Citadel in Commerce with her co-workers so that they can go shopping. Being the nice bf that I am, I went with them. Keep in mind that I totally hate shopping and the longest I have gone shopping by myself is 1 hour. By the way, I was planning to go to Bestbuy to get her a GPS system as my gift to her for Christmas.
So I was at CItadel from 10:30 to 2:00 A.M. I was in Bestbuy from 3-6 A.M. and was in bed by 8 A.M. I'd say it was worth it 'coz I got the GPS system.
By the way, I spent $150.
