[quote=Anonymous]I accidentally went to Best Buy on Black Friday one year, because I was an idiot and completely forgot that it was a thing (shows you how important it was to me). My younger sibling was a teenager at the time and his birthday is right after Thanksgiving; I had forgotten to buy him a present and it was too close for something to come in time in the mail, so I went to Best Buy to get him a new Nintendo 64 controller. It was like 2pm and the line to check out was wrapped around the store. I was like, "Wow, the customer service here is terrible, is the register broken or something? Why are there so many people in line?" I was about halfway to the front when I realized what day it was. At that point the time was a sunk cost and I decided if I was going to be stupid, I might as well go all in, plus I still needed a present and figured all the stores would be the same, so I waited in line for over an hour to check out.

At least the controller was a hit with my sibling and got heavy use, but I learned my lesson. Never again. I have a friend who got up at 4am on Black Friday one year to go stand in line at Staples. Why? On multiple levels, why?[/quote]
