Thanks giving day.

initiated the re loc.
Finished with the bking of flght, htl, car.

working on pking.

evening around 6pm drive out and on a crazy thought drive to wal mart and find it open. was surprised to see people there.
Enter in to find out that they are starting the thanks giving sale by 10pm and 12 midnight.

walk around and see the lines of people queuing up for the video consols and TVs. wow. my first time ever to see all these in 11 years of living in the Americas.

Slowly see the piles of Gujjus and many other indians making game plans to get out the max benifit. families spliting up and standing in different queues. wow. And then was surprised to see people speaking Araby also there with their families and kids. along with latin americans who did not seem much organized and calculating as the indians were.

Got to see cops come in to try and control the crowd where a waffle maker was been sold for $2. Was wondering have all the gujjus who eat dal rice and roti started eating waffles and syrup after coming to US or were they planning on becoming waffle eater? hahaha that would be funny. Or maybe they are going to use it to make chappathis or dosas.

Anyways non of them were listening the cops shouting and it was like a scene out of india at the ration shop where every one is crowding in and the strongest gets to make it to the top and grab the tool.

Hanging around there I end up buying 3 wrangler jeans for $30 and 3 levi staruss T-shirts. and then also brought containers 30 piece for $7 and 26 piece for $7.... could not resist the deals. After 11 years I succumbed to the mad rush of Thanks giving discount shopping .
