I think the pre-dawn sales should be used for profiling purposes to determine who needs to be sterilized. Thoughts?

Most years I'd agree, but this year we were already heading up to the in-laws at an ungodly time of the morning, so we went just a little earlier so I could stop off at Best Buy first, about 7:45 or so. After we got the very first parking spot in front of the store, we managed to snag the 3rd season of Arrested Development for $10, 1st season of My Name is Earl for $20, Field of Dreams and Groundhog Day for $3-5 each, 2nd season of Entourage for my cousin for $15, and Adobe Photoshop for $50, then get through line in about 5 minutes. After an experience like that, I'm prepared to vouch that Black Friday is the greatest thing ever.

That's fine. I was thinking more about people who camp in the parking lot overnight and get in fistfights and such.

We went much later -- like 9am or so -- but still found some great deals. Found a GameBoy Micro for 37 bucks, which was 40 cheaper than I've previously found.

I think that too. Do you have Boxing Day sales in the US? It's not so much the concept of the thing that I object to as much (about 5 years ago, they had DVD players for $10!), but the fact of: is that really worth leaving your family on Christmas night for? People started lining up at 5 in the afternoon Christmas day.
