What is it with after Thangsgiving Day sales at area stores. I do not know about where you live, but I am sure it is the same, people waiting in long lines hours before the store opens. OK, no problem, people wait in line days or even months to get tickets to a concert or a movie ( ). Once the stores open, people make a mad dash inside to get the "must have" items.

As a mechanic, I have noticed lots of things, but these always take the cake.
