The fact that an unemployed woman is there buying an ipod with her unemployment cheque is proof of just how skewed american behavior is with respect to personal finances...what happened to buying your kid a basketball?

last recession was in what, early 90s? practically entire generation grew up being affluent and dont know what it feels to penny pinch.
I think I got a pizza for one xmas that I shared with my sis.

Changing habits and mentality is not easy, esp when one does not really recognize the situation

It's got to be pretty clear when you lose your job that things need to change.

Agressive and careless shoppers are to blame.

Substantial blame must also be placed on Wal*Mart management.

I dunno, there were thousands of people. They took the doors off the hinges. I don't think a stampede like this was to be expected any more than it might have been in previous years (when one did not occur).

So sad. Guy is just stocking shelves at walmart, then he's dead. People are so ...I don't even have the word.

The funny thing is, I bet the people involved in this are probably thinking "OMG that's so sad, I can't believe that happened" And then turn around and watch their big screen TV and be just as aggressive next Black Friday.

That woman being her kid an iPod too? What an idiot. Being unemployed and on welfare would be a perfect time to teach your children how to spend wisely and only by the necessities in life when you don't have the income to splurge.

+ 1

I don't see how this is the management's fault.

People are fucking crazy. Seriously.

True. But I don't think "substantial" blame should be put on them.
