I'm sorry but I really think this is horrible. Why can't human beings come together with such intensity and fervor to feed the poor? To stop social injustice? To stand up for human rights? I think we've got our priorities screwed up.

Black Friday: Corporate Americas way of showing how badly they rip you off the remaining 364 days of the year.

Sheer madness. When is Green Friday?

Didn't the Republicans just run an entire campaign screaming about how poorly the economy is doing because of the President? This doesn't look like a sputtering economy to me.

Why can't retailers just extend the hours into a black Saturday? Why do they feel the need to push it to Thanksgiving? Oh well this is what we get for allowing corporations to control our country I suppose.

think of all the businesses that are already open holidays and those workers - hotels, gas stations, hospitals, restaurants, bars, these reporters and webmasters at huffpo

those employees are wondering what all the fuss is about

Yah know what sad is when the people you meet in line (especially those who frequent the same spot in line yearly) know you more than your own family. :(

Don't publicize the store hours for vulture capitalist walmart...

Saturday is going to be awesome because our television sets will not be flooded with obnoxious "black Friday" commercials.

Black Friday.... decent idea on paper, disaster in reality.

11:48 PM on 11/22/2012

Thos commercials for KMart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY LIVING GAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They make me want to tear off my ears and scream!!!!!!!!!!!!
The "Happy Honda Days" commercials also are very annoying and by Jan. 1st we will all be praying that Honda goes bankrupt because of those commercials alone!
They are as annoying as Jack In The Box commercials... and THAT is annoying!!!!!!

[Derrek]

The stores certainly make their message heard. Fortunately I am out-of-market for Jack In the Box so I don't have to deal with those haha

Jack in the Box commercials are awesome !!

There's still 5 hours PST of Thanksgiving Day left. GO BACK HOME and spend the last 5 hours with your family and friends and LIVE, LAUGH, DRINK, EAT, BE MERRY, AND LAUGH! Losers are people that prioritize all this wasteful spending on a day meant to spent with family and friends. You're all PATHETIC to think that material goods will bring you happiness. It's a temporary fulfillment before you back to the stores and get yourselves in more debt. STOP THIS PILGRIMAGE to the retail stores and go back home to your loved ones you bunch of thankless pathetic losers.

A bunch of people spending money they don't have on a bunch of junk that no one really needs. Let the games begin!

So true. My favorite is people who buy bigger houses to hold stuff they don't need and/or buy storage units to hold stuff - that's just too much stuff
