I don't do Black Friday. At some point in the past I decided that sleeping late and taking a day later in the holiday season to do the majority of my shopping is the smarter plan of attack. Most places have sales going on the entire month of December and while the discounts won't be as steep as they are on Black Friday, they are usually still good enough to warrant skipping the most crowded shopping day of the year and staying home.
Besides, with every news report of people getting trampled and assaulted during these sales I wonder how much longer Black Friday midnight sales are going to last anyway. At some point business owners and police are going to decide that is is a safety issue and stores can't keep letting people get out of control like this. After all, there had to be a reason the woman in Los Angeles thought she had to bring pepper spray with her on Black Friday. When you have to arm yourself to go shopping something is seriously out of whack. Ask yourself this simple question: how much good is a 62-inch television really going to do you if you can't see because your eyes are burning?
