I don't know why every year I am so facinated with the suspense leading up to BF but I never ever really shop on BF and definately don't camp out overnight for the doorbusters at some of the HOT locations.


Doing so intel gathering and found:

I am so glad to be working at Best Buy (for an outside vendor) now maybe I can get the laptop I have always dreamed about,

Do you get an employee discount as an outside vendor (I'm guess you work for either an inventory company or a merchandising one right?)? B/C otherwise even employees have to wait in line on BF and can't "hold" things. BB employees often don't get any of the deals offered on BF for this reason.

I wish they still had their PA program up and running in more stores. That sounds like a dream come true!

no discount, hopefully someone will let me hold what I want, but I think I have to work that morning, I will just have to get up and in the store before they open. HA, yeah right I barely get up with the kids.

i c how u r. u r going to b 1 of those people whodo sen't let me get my item for which i waited 5 hours outside. is there any point for me to get up early? honestly, i'm not mad...... just jealous. take advantage where you can jones!
