I'm in line right now.

Does CCity do numbers or do people just rush in?

why would you be in line now??????

Since 12:45 pst Sharp Aquos 46 " $1300 and $300 laptop for nephew ... 30 hours... fun

No offense, but that's freakin' pathetic.

great way to spend thanksgiving!

Here. For a mere $200 more you get your precious TV and the ability to spend Thanksgiving with friends and family, as well as get your dignity back. Sounds like a bargain to me.

Depends on the store. Mine is giving out numbers beginning at 3am.

Thanks for supporting Circuit City! Don't let these jackasses discourage you.

$299.99 After $150 mail-in rebate: $449.99 at register.
BB has one for 239.00 no rebate and a free canon 89.00 3-1 printer!

anyway, have fun

Jesus fucking Christ.

Amen to that.

I like standing in line for those things (think tailgate party without the alcohol). Not sure I'd do it for 30 hours though. I'm getting in line a BB at 3 or so, but I live in a colder climate and lines don't form as early here.

Longest I've waited to buy something is the annual library booksale, it opens at 10:00 and I usually get there at 0830 or 0900. At that I'm still 50th or so in line, and by 1000 there are a couple hundred people behind me. The section I'm interested in is usually cleaned out by 1100. Not to sound condescending, but 30 hours of my time is worth more than a couple hundred bucks, especially if there's no guarantee I would get the thing.

per usual.

Since you're there now, why not just ask someone who works there? I'm sure they would have more info than we would.

Also, did you check to make sure they have 'em in-stock? Out of 4 CCs here, only one store showed it in-stock.

If it's like the last few years, they will give out vouchers for the big ticket front page specials (ie. tvs, laptops, cameras) prior to the store opening. The vouchers are valid for a certain period of time so that you can shop for other things, wait in line and still get your voucher item(s). If it isn't a voucher item, the people just rush in.

I was at BB last year, but it's near Circuit City in Eugene. Around midnight or 1, a bunch of people from CC came over to our line try to sell their vouchers, so at least in that case, the vouchers were given out pretty early.

Edit (Early for CC. At BB they were handed out around 3 or 4 am.)

Does it matter at this point? You're already in line.

I actually like reading these types of threads. It makes what little temptation that I might have fly right out the window.

Because it's Thanksgiving and they're closed?

Just thought of a great money-making idea! Next year, I'm cooking Thanksgiving dinner and bringing it to the various retail stores and selling to-go plates to customers in line...perhaps come back at midnight with some hot cocoa for sale...cha-ching!

wrong tv...64 not 62...will type more when i get home

I agree no sale is worth missing family time especally for a computer which will be worth 50 bucks in 2 years. Go home and be with your family.

Yeah, well, not everyone's extended family is a treat to be with you know.

i eat with family all the time ie last week all live here once twice month etc
