Strictly speaking, this isn’t one of the usual TFTS Black Friday articles where we tell you about some upcoming Black Friday tech deals. Instead, it’s sort of a human interest story about Black Friday. In St. Petersburg, Florida, Mr. Ryan and Lorie Davenport have been camping outside their local Best Buy since this past Wednesday. That’s over a week in advance, folks. Best Buy has rewarded them with a free iPad each.
Best Buy management gave them the okay for camping there for over a week, and they even gave them the iPads and christened them the “first family of Black Friday.” According to the Davenports, their working with another couple (who sits in line while their at work or whatnot) and in total, they’re saving a spot for a total of 10 people.
Why so up so early before Black Friday? According to Ms. Davenport, they’ve been waiting in line for six years at Best Buy, but have always been bested by one unnamed fellow. This year, by showing up the Wednesday before, they’ve beaten that chap and secured their spot in front for them and their 10 friends.
Regarding the free iPads, they say that they won’t use them unless their standing in the line alone. Otherwise, they’ll do activities together like “talk, play chess and play cards.”
Here’s the kicker, the Davenports don’t even know what they want to buy! They say that they’ll look for a good deal on a HDTV or an Apple computer. We would direct them to check out the TFTS page on Best Buy’s Black Friday deals.

FRAUD. Best Buy admitted they will hit everyone purchasing a laptop with a set up fee of they claim $95.00. My wife went to purchase a $449.99 laptop ordered online available for in store pickup and they refused to sell after waiting 45 minutes they refused to sell for an item already reserved for us. 42 laptops were available and only 4 set up by Best Buy but that’s not stopping them from Defrauding customers. Notwithstanding the laptop was reserved we have to get in line now for our laptop. Management said point blank if you want a laptop black Friday you will have to pay us $94.00 set up fee or you will not get a laptop its that simple PERIOD notwithstanding 38 are not set up they will work overtime to make sure ALL are set up so you can be defraused out of the set up fee.
