Mingle

I got there at 8PM, thought it would be a good time.. 4 hours before the sale began.  I printed off my map and dashed off to Walmart with my girlriend.

Casually strolled through avoiding people I knew, found the Wii line… browsed some more and finally got to the Xbox line with no one there..

I asked the Walmart associate standing there, “Is this the Xbox line?” and to my

 surprise he said “Yes, but they are all sold out.  There were only thirty and unless someone doesn’t want one, you’re out of luck.”.

So they didn’t publish what time they actually went on sale to get the tickets.  I figured four hours would be a good time to get there.

It was a “take a number and you can leave” kind of system, which was stupid.  

Either way, I got home… found the same bundled package offered by Toys R’ Us online on eBay for the same price of $199 with free shipping.

So this Black Friday, kudos to you Toys R’ Us! Screw you Walmart.
