Shoppers often face disappointment when it comes to Black Friday. For instance, a customer planned to buy a specific brand of winter boots that were on a great discount. But when she reached the store, she found out that the boots were all in the wrong sizes. There were only extremely small or large sizes left, which made the whole trip seem like a waste of time.
There was a time when a store's Black Friday sale led to a fight over the last high - demand toy. Parents were so desperate to get it for their kids that they started arguing and it turned into a physical altercation. Also, some stores have had issues with their websites crashing during Black Friday. Customers who were relying on online deals were left frustrated as they couldn't complete their purchases.
Many customers have stories of waiting in line for hours. One customer told that they were in a line outside a popular clothing store. The store was supposed to open at 6 am. They got there at 3 am. While waiting, they made friends with the people around them. And when the store finally opened, they all rushed in together. It was like a crazy adventure. Some customers also talk about the disappointment when they couldn't get the item they wanted even after all the waiting, because there were limited stocks.
A shopper once told me that on Black Friday, she was in a store when she heard a loud crashing sound. It turned out that a large shelf had collapsed under the weight of all the people trying to reach the items on it. She was lucky not to be near it, but she saw some people get trapped under it, and the screams were horrifying.
Sure. A friend of mine had a great experience on Black Friday 2017. He managed to get a really cheap gaming console. He said that he just walked into the store at the right time as they had just restocked. It was like a lucky break for him.
I once went Black Friday shopping with my family. We targeted a furniture store. The discounts were amazing. We were looking for a new sofa. There were so many people that we had to wait for a long time to get assistance. But in the end, we got a beautiful sofa at a very low price. It was a long day but worth it. The whole family was excited about our new furniture.
One of my Black Friday nightmare stories was when I got to the store really early in the morning. I had my eye on a particular TV. But when they opened the doors, it was chaos. People were pushing and shoving so hard that I got knocked to the side. By the time I got to the electronics section, all the TVs were gone. It was really frustrating.
Shoppers were extremely excited. They were up early and ready to grab the deals. Many were comparing prices on their smartphones while waiting in line.
Well, some shoppers had the experience of finding rare items on sale. They were lucky enough to get limited - edition products at a great price. It was like a treasure hunt for them.
Sure. There was a store where a group of friends made a human chain to block others from getting to a stack of discounted toys. They wanted to make sure they got all the toys for their charity drive. However, store staff had to intervene and make them play fair.
From an Islamic perspective, there are tales of those who had near - death experiences seeing angels. They describe the angels as having a majestic presence. These experiences often reinforce the believers' faith, as they see it as a sign of the afterlife described in Islamic teachings. Some also claim to have heard the call to prayer in a very ethereal way during their near - death state.
