The Sale's Big, okay?
Big enough to camp out overnight for, huge enough to warrant a bank of portos (Snowblind! will resist the urge to speculate on the conditions thereof), and massive enough to draw somewhere in the neighborhood of 8-10,000 people this weekend.
The Burlington Free Press has a story in today's edition. Here's an excerpt I found interesting:
Josh Rhoades, 17, eager to have first pick at merchandise, was among the crowd that camped out overnight. He arrived at 9 p.m., he said, but it was worth it to be one of the first people through the doors. “I got in at 7:15,” he said. “Not bad.”
An hour later, Rhoades had already snagged a bag full of gear and two snowboards for $50 each, he said. Deals such as this keep him coming back each year. “I’ve been every year since I was, like, 8,” he said.
AHEM. FIFTY. DOLLARS. EACH.
'Nuff said.
