Huh, well this Best Buy ad says "online and in-stores", that must mean I can buy it online Thanksgiving Day?
Huh. Nope, clearly has the higher price. Guess I'll refresh. ...haha, they've got to be joking. Right? Right?! ... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, does anyone know where I can find that $199 PS3 bundle online? Please! Please?! In-store only?! Oh God. Oh God please. Shit. Shit. Shit. No. I don't want to go to town on Black Friday. No. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Why?! Why?!! *sobs* EVERYBODY HAS IT! WHY CAN'T THEY JUST SELL IT ONLINE! GAMESTOP, BEST BUY, TARGET, WAL-MART, EVERYBODY IS SELLING IT AT THE SAME PRICE! THERE IS NO COMPETITION HERE! JUST SELL IT ONLINE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! THAT WOULD BE THE ONLY WAY TO ACTUALLY COMPETE! WHY?!! Help. Help me. No. Don't want to. Drive. People. Animals. They're like animals masked in human flesh. Monsters. Monsters! So many. Thousands. Tens of thousands. They don't know how to drive when there's only a few dozen of them. Why? Why?

Because I hate you Magus
In all seriousness, no idea. I have pretty much zero plans to do anything on Black Friday whatsoever. Not shopping for anyone, I'm too broke to buy shit, gotta play catchup with my bills. Not sure why there's so much stigma about buying things online... I think it may just have to do with getting people to support physical establishments over just ordering shit all the time... or because they hate us and want to watch us fight to the death over that last bottle of shitty department store cologne. |

Try working retail on Black Friday.
Edit: Black Friday deals aren't available online because then there wouldn't be any scarcity involved, and much less cross purchasing. The whole point of having Black Friday sales work how they do is that the stuff is only what's on hand and only that day until it sells out. In this way they attract people to the store who will then generally buy some things that AREN'T on sale, as well as limiting the amount of their profits that are cut into by the sales themselves. Putting it online means that they have to sell it to anyone who can log on between 6am and noon or whatever, with no limits on in store stock, and online shoppers are much less likely to buy more things while they are on the site. In other words making Black Friday deals open to the internet kind of ruins the entire point of Black Friday. For the retailers.

You mean Black Thursday? Because some fucking stores are actually launching their sales as early as 9:00 pm Thanksgiving Day.

don't online sales usually start monday? Cyber Monday is still a thing, right?

I'm working 'blitz' Black Friday, Thursday night at 10pm until 7 the next morning. I'm apparently monitoring a line for two hours then helping hand out televisions. I expect it to be either frantic or mind-numbing.

As far as I know! The sales usually aren't quite as good, though, and holding them after the weekend keeps them from interfering with Black Friday.
