I worked 2 Black Fridays at Best Buy. You won’t catch me dead out at Black Friday because i know the secrets. The prices are changed to lie about the sale, or they will have 5 of the item, 2 of which are held for management, and one disappears until the end of the day and the employee that finds it might as well pick it up. Its all a scam.
