Cor that didn't take long did it?

So back to topic, I've never done Black Friday or Mauve Thursday before, but I got up at 5 this morning (Thursday) to score an Xbox something thingy package from Meijer (Sales started 6am, lines started midnight). I said to beest "oh I'm always awake at that time, I might as well give it a try......" not this morning..... I had to haul myself from my pit and wish I could go back but it's light now, so you're stuck with me....

anyway........


got in line about 5:45........

by the time it started moving the line was 3 times as long as when I joined....

the woman in front of me got the last one in the pile.....


.....and they fished the one out of the display case for me.




*phew*

all else were disappoint. I didn't dare look behind me as I swiped my card, then I slunk away with my purchase in a black bag like an alky with their paper bag
