This is the way they get people in the stores.What really gets me is they only get 5 per store, what sense does that make. I gave up on black friday shopping years ago. I m hoping that the walmart website will have cyber monday sales with that laptop, I want it too.
Stores have VERY limited quantities of the hottest black friday items, and this is made clear in their ads. If they did sell at least what they promised to customers at that price, then yes it s legal. Many stores hand out some sort of paper or wristbands to early people in line - if you were further back, they could have been gone already to the people ahead of you.
Many larger stores handed out dibs coupons based on where you were in line (to prevent stampedes). If you weren t near the front of the line, you were out of luck.
