Every year more and more stores are allowed to open on such holidays... maybe Thanksgiving isn't one of them yet. |

Is there a limit to how many of an item or how many different items for which you can get tickets? --- End quote --- Different items - generally no, but they only have tickets for the really great items - $200 laptops and $300 TV's they will have tickets for, but free surge protectors or $5 USB drives they won't. How many of an item - usually the rebate will specify one per household or address. You can often buy on separate receipts and have a relative submit the rebate form in their name, etc. Not sure how this applies with you with the "at the register" rebates. |

After I worked through 7 holiday seasons at Toys R Us, I avoid this day like the plague. I usually look through the ads, but something has to be really good for me to return to that type of environment no matter which side of the counter I'm on. It's a high-stress environment for both shoppers and workers and I've seen many people react badly to this. I've seen the lengths that people would go to get a Tickle Me Elmo back in the "holiday of '96". Not pretty at all. |

I might be persuaded to wait in that line for a $200 laptop. |

Heh. I remember watching two fat chicks get into a fist fight once when I was at Toys R Us when they randomly put some Cabbage Patch Kids on the shelf. They both wanted the last of one particular Kid... 10 seconds later they were hair pulling, kicking, screaming, and rolling around in a flabby heap. I was like 9 then. |
