People have been trained to wait for the bargains

I don't know about the rest of the country, but if "early sales" in Houston are "modest", I'd hate to see brisk. The stores are more packed than I've seen them in five years in Houston.

I made the mistake of going to Fry's Black Friday morning to take advantage of a great sale on RAM. At 6:11am, 11 minutes after opening, the entire parking lot was full and the line for ram, motherboards and processors snaked around three aisles. The check out line was three lines deep and snaked around the rear of the building, even with both banks of check out clerks full. Insane.
