The best deals are at the Bean Outlet stores. I just bought my wife a $300 winter coat for $180.
I used to work the gun counter on Black Friday weekend, starting at 5:00 pm on Thursday, closing at 5:00 am Friday, and re-opening at 8:00 am Friday. What a miserable experience for everyone including the customers. Even with a good, automated NICS system in VA, some customers were waiting 5-6 hours for their approvals to come through, and I would always have a couple dozen who would go home, then change their minds about the purchase while waiting for the approval. And for what? To save $50 on a Ruger LCP or a Heritage Rough Rider? As a customer, my time would be worth more than that.
