Be familiar with the store so you know where the items kept. Be aggressive when going after merchandise. Every man (or woman) for himself (or herself).

Don't die.


That's a solid piece of advice right there. It applies to trampling, knife fights, automobile induced rage, poisoning, etc.

I wouldn't park anywhere near the store that had the black friday item, the suby would endure some parking carnage. Then again, it wouldn't be too smart to park too far, considering someone might chase you down.

never had any of these bad conflict war stories happen to me. the first time i camped out at black friday was about 2 years ago with a group of friends at the fremont frys. i knew the store inside and out, so i mapped out all the isles for my friends lol. we all planned to separate into teams and grab wat each other wanted in different sections of the store.

as for the multiple conflict stories ive heard, everyone had a weapon. and those who didnt, i would give them one of my many extras lol. each one of my friends was holding a knife, i a knife and extendable baton. we all made it out safely with no problems...... cept the hr and a half long line trying to get out. last yr i went....... i didnt grab anything at all, nothing worth grabbing, i just went with friends for fun. as long as you get in and out of there asap, there wont be huge lines. the faster u get in, the faster ull get out.

I'll be sure your car gets a "special" spot. Maybe one of those spots that are so special they have a red curb!!

This will be my first year with the company at christmas time, but I'll keep an eye out for it. This coming weekend I'll be there Friday and Saturday mornings. Los Gatos on Sunday
