Why do they call it "Black Friday" anyway, and not "Green Friday"? Circles under the eyes, maybe? Bruises from thrown elbows?

I would not go shopping on Friday after Thanksgiving even if I was paid.

Agreed. It's hardly ever worth it. I might buy a new laptop on black Friday when the one i've got finally quits on me. I think that'll be a couple of years, though.

I would need a REALLY good reason to do it, and a $20 hard drive doesn't count. I'm content to follow the sales at Fry's for stuff that's just "cheap enough".

The $20 hard drive isn't a Black Friday item.  It will still be on sale later that day and in the following days.

Well, a $470 32" HD LCD tv is good enough reason for me. ;D I am also looking into a digital camcorder. Looks like $200 for a minidv is the best deal going.

ChadTower:


It may be hard to get both alone... I'd imagine people make mad dashes to specific items and then have a hard time getting to a second one before it's gone.  Especially if one of them is really big like that TV.
