People are camping out in front of Best Buy for the midnight sale of Playstation 3. Best Buy here announced they will have 3 units where Wal Mart here said they will have 4 units for sale at midnight. Big lines expected

Which is better, to have her by your side complaining about how stupid the whole thing is or to be by yourself?

Some guy on eBay bid over $9000 for a pre-order of a PS3.

That is someone with too much money to burn.

You said it. I could think of many better ways to spend $9000 here in the real world.

I guess if they have money like that I can't fault them for spending it. Must be nice.

I bet there is alot more credit card charging than cash purchasing. Most of those people in line looked like younger males.

I should have bought a few and then flipped them on Ebay at 3 or 4 times the cost. Think of the eggnog I could have bought
