After this years dinner, we decided to go shopping early with Thanksgiving. How about 10pm at the Toys’R US? Every year Black Friday shopping starts earlier. For the stores it’s the biggest day of the year, but their revenue gets eaten up by the run on Internet shops. To be able to compete, stores open early in the morning, or even late at night.
We had to stand in line for a long time. The people in front of us must have been there at least for two hours, which means they left the dinner table immediately to go to the store. And while it was cold, we “only” had to wait for 45 minutes to get inside.
The bargains were not that good, lot’s of plastic junk from China. At least we were filmed for the local news by NBC.
Next year we just stay at home, and shop online. No rush, no cold and get a good night sleep 
Happy Thanksgiving!

Yeah, those things have a tendency to be a letdown. Unless there was an advertisement with a specific ad with limited quantity, I never moved. Not worth it.
