    It seems stupid to do those sales anyway. Why not sell items at a good price anyway? If they can slash the retail price by 60% and still make profit, then why not just cut the everyday price down lower, and never have sales? Well, i worked EMS today in Winston-Salem. We didn't have any incdents.

    I read that and can sympathies with the poor workers - I was working at an electronics retailer when on boxing day the hoard broke the doors of the hinges - we all ran for cover. While nobody was hurt, we had to get a welder it to put the steel door frame back together.

    I really feel for this person's family, who has to deal with the loss of a loved one so that someone could get $10 off a dvd player...

    It's ridiculous what our society has stooped to just to save a buck. All these early morning sales are out of hand.

    I agree mark it down for good instead of having insane sales where someone gets killed! This guys family didn't need this & neither did he. Poor guy.
