Two Calif. Women Camp-Out In Front Of Best Buy, 22 Days Ahead Of Black Friday

SmashMouth · 11-11-2014, 06:16 PM

Two California women have already arrived at a Beaumont Best Buy to begin their annual camp-out – 22 days ahead of Black Friday sales.

Vickey Torres of Cabazon and Juanita Salas of Beaumont arrived for their annual Black Friday camping set-up outside of the Beaumont Best Buystore, Banning-Beaumont Patch reports. The women plan to spend the full 22 days outside of the electronic retailer in hopes of landing the best deals for the infamous “first come, first served” Thanksgiving night rush.
“We could have started later, but then we wouldn’t be sure to get first in line,” Torres told Patch on Friday, as she and Salas sat under the hot sun in front of the Best Buy. “They only get a few items at the cheaper prices and it’s first come, first served.”
Torres and Salas said they have camped out in front of Best Buy for “the last few years,” with the two women taking turns to go home and shower, eat.
Although deals for Best Buy’s Black Friday are yet to be released, Torres and Salas said they are ultimately looking to land a good deal on a television this year.

The deals at Best Buy aren't even that good, if you look around & comparison shop ... just sayin',

. Don't they have vagrancy laws or something out there? That is one nice thing about living in a cold weather climate area ... people'll line up the day before & that's about it,

Yet another example in America of unremarkable people doing unremarkable things for their remarkably selfish end-goals.

Much like electing the most incompetent moron in world history?

Get a job. At minimum wage (which is probably all these two brain surgeons could get, if that) after 22 days they'll have made $1,276...each. They would be able to pay full price and and still have money left over.

Man, American's never cease to amaze me.
