Q: Why do people do it?
A: It really depends on the person but who doesn't like to get great deals on items and get all of your chirstmas shopping done early? It isn't for the faint o heart as there are many people out there who would trample you to get what they want.
Q; How do you do it?
A: I make a "battle plan" me and my family decide where to go and what specific items we are getting at the particular store. Each person has a job whether it is navigatging the crowds to grab items or holding a place in line to get out of the store quickly and on to the next.
For some people, black Friday is a chaotic event when crazy people go out in the early hours of the day to find the best deals on Christmas presents. For people like me, it is a tradition that started the year I was born in 1991. I've gone black Friday shopping ever since I can remember. It has become a great tradition amongst my family. We love to read up on all the ads and see where the best deals are among all the stores. I see it as an art form as I enjoy the thrill of seeing who is selling what, what is popular, and finding the perfect gifts for each of my family members. Over the years I have perfected the art form of finding great deals as well as knowing how they market the popular items. There are certain tricks to getting the best deals and knowing the set up of the stores. Some websites "leak" some of the store's ads ahead of time to give customers a peek at all the amazing deals. We always have a plan and try very hard not to veer off of it. Whether we get everything we want or not it is a time spent together with the people I love the most.
