Here's a shot of shoppers lining up at dawn today for deals at a Target store in South San Francisco. Despite the world financial crisis and tighter shopping budgets, retailers are crossing their fingers that deep discounting will lead to a Black Friday surprise. While I am not normally a Black Friday shopper, I did brave the crowds to visit my local Target today shortly after 7am (around an hour after they opened) and yes, it was a madhouse. So much so that I promptly left after picking up some Christmas cards (which weren't even on sale) and this lovely John Derian photo album (which although is full price on Target.com, for some reason was marked down to $4 at the store).
