3:10 AM – Our plans to shop at Best Buy need to change. Doors don't open for almost two hours, and the line is hundreds of people long. Two tents are pitched near the entrance, and police officers chat with future customers. “I'm not waiting in that,” Sam says, his hopes for a low-priced video game dimming. I ask people hthe north face jacket ow long they've been waiting. “Since midnight,” someone yells. “Ten o'clock tonight!” a father and son shout. “I've been here since two yesterday afternoon,” one guy tells me as he heads to the port-o-potty. I can't tell if he's proud or embarrassed.
3:55 AM – “So if Best Buy won't work and there are only five TVs at Target - what are you gonna do?” Sam asks. He knows I want a TV – the ones I saw in the fliers – and he won't let it go. We're parked near Bon Ton and Sears, and they both open in five minutes. I find the Sears flyer and clarify the want versus need argument, circling the $379 32” LCD TV (only six per store – no rain checks). “Then let's get in line,” he says, and we do.
