Black Friday Insanity

Black Friday is a crazy day for all of us. Well, its the day after Thanksgiving. Some of us have had too much turkey or too much pumpkin pie. But Black Friday is a whole different thing.

Its crazy how much one person can spend on one night. People beat others up for DVD players, like in one of the Walmart stores people started hitting each other with boxes and pulling each others hair off. This all happens when $200 DVD players sell for $50. A woman took out her pepper spray just to keep people away from what she was going to buy. Good thing I didn`t go out this year or I would have been caught in a fight over Barbies .

The crazy thing about Black Friday is that people think that that's the only time of the year to buy stuff. An average person spends about $372.57 every year on Black Friday. This year the Black Friday record was broken by 23%. This year the total amount of money spent was 52.4 billion dollars.

I think Black Friday is kind of a stupid thing to do because every year people get crazy and hurt other people. I think the stores should at least provide some security or something to keep crazy people in control.I only saw and heard about this much violence this year. Last year when I was in Florida there was no news of violence except in states like California.
