It took a few decades before it took over the holidays here. And online shopping and mass chaos of ridiculous hours that stores opened for Black Friday are sounding the death knoll.

Mass chaos lol no kidding.
I wanted new laptop and my husband ordered one from Best Buy for my holiday gift. Of course using Black Friday price! We went to pick it up yesterday, quite late in the evening. There were probably 50 people in line all through the store. I guess they had good deals. I saw some huge TVs on sale. We just picked laptop up and left in a hurry. We were afraid to fall into shopping frenzy and start spending lol Best Buy does have good Black Friday deals. One year we bought new kindles for $29 a piece
