From here

We received our first Black Friday report this morning from Florida where Best Buy was doing business as usual. Our spy went to the store at 4am and found no crowds or pushing. In a considerably sadder situation, a worker at a Long Island Wal-Mart was crushed and a woman miscarried. Holy crap, right?

That said, tell us what you saw today in your travels. Email us at tips@cg or drop a note in comments. I’ll go first: Today is my son’s birthday party and we found the little party supply store down the street to be completely empty. We were able to buy our balloons unscathed.
