After shocked by the video of crowds on Black Friday on Dr. Cooper's class, I always expected to see this moment which is being like the discount time in China. But actually it was not that spectacular this BlackFriday, at least not Salisbury.
On Thursday morning, I studied the ads of Walmart and Bestbuy, finding no extremely wonderful thing I would love to cross the multitude to grab. So my friends and I decided to hang around Walmart at 10 and Bestbuy at midnight.
Walmart was so clever inviting people to shop for daily necessities which kept regular price while waiting for countdown. But I actually only planed to buy milk and snacks, so it's not so hard to pay at the counter and went straight to Bestbuy oppositely. When parking the car, I did see the guy standing on the first bringing a camp with him, ready to go and buy all electrical equipments for lifetime. After involved in cold winter night for 2 hours, we finally got our turn in and...you know what? No crowed people! No empty goods shelf! How disappointed! I even prepared to be squeezed like a sponge or pushed down by some huge guys. Some salesmen absolutely had nothing to do but smiling at me saying: It's cold outside ha? So while picking up my favorite, I was curious what would be like if China had a "Black Sunday"? Maybe it's better to be on line one month before that and build a shifting house there for life~~Lukily, we don't have that!!
