What are the most interesting black friday shopping stories you've heard?

There was this one Black Friday at a supermarket. People were rushing for the turkeys that were on a huge discount. One lady grabbed a turkey and was running to the checkout. But the turkey slipped out of her hands and slid across the floor, right into the legs of another shopper. They both just stared at the turkey for a moment and then started laughing uncontrollably.

A friend of mine was a mystery shopper at a hotel. She checked in and requested extra towels and a special pillow. The staff brought her not only the extra towels and pillow but also a whole bunch of other random things like a box of chocolates, a teddy bear, and a bottle of champagne. They thought she was some sort of VIP mystery shopper. My friend had a great laugh about it.

There was a story of a group of friends who decided to do a Secret Santa shopping spree. One of them got really into it and went all out. He bought so many presents for his Secret Santa that it filled up two large shopping bags. The recipient was completely shocked and overjoyed.

There was a man who wanted to buy a new laptop. He saw a great deal and rushed to the counter. When the cashier rang it up, he realized he left his wallet at home. He was so embarrassed. He had to call his wife to bring it while everyone in line was chuckling.

I heard of a Black Friday where a toy store had a super - rare collectible doll on sale. Parents were going crazy for it. There was a father who actually camped outside the store for two nights just to make sure he got it for his daughter. When the store opened, he sprinted towards the doll section and got the last one. He said it was all worth it to see the look on his daughter's face.

I heard of a situation where a couple was shopping for Christmas presents for their kids. They got so distracted by all the sales that they ended up buying way more for themselves than for the kids. When they realized, they just shrugged and said 'Well, we deserve some Christmas cheer too!'. It was quite a funny realization moment for them.

I once got a really great deal on a laptop during Black Friday. I had been eyeing it for months, but it was always too expensive. On Black Friday, I saw it was discounted by 40%. I got to the store early and there was already a long line. But it was so worth it when I finally walked out with my new laptop.

I know a story where an Amex Black Card holder had a last - minute need for a private jet. The card's concierge service arranged it within hours. It was remarkable how quickly they were able to meet such an extravagant demand. This shows the extent of the card's capabilities in fulfilling high - end and urgent requests.

A photographer was trying to take pictures in the woods when a black bear walked right up to him. He was so scared that he froze. But the bear just sniffed at his camera and then left. It was amazing that the bear seemed more curious than aggressive.

A store in 2016 had a 'buy one get one free' deal on designer shoes. Women were scrambling to get their hands on their favorite pairs. It was chaos but also exciting as everyone was so eager to get a great deal.
