It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Yes, the holiday season! From endless mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving dinner to decorating the Christmas tree, there is one day in particular important to all shopaholics. Black Friday, or Black Thursday as some stores have decided to open on the holiday, the most important day(s) of the year for all consumers.

In addition to the food comas and hangovers, the day after Thanksgiving is all about the deals, door busters, sales and drama. From the long lines at midnight, unhappy staff members and floods of people fighting for the best deal, there are just those particular people you cannot help but find everywhere.

They are not afraid to snatch whatever their eye catches.

11. The One Timers

They came, saw and somewhat conquered, finishing the night with a simple conclusion; they are never going to do that again. Through the blood, sweat and tears, the deals just weren't worth the hype. Maybe they'll just stick to Cyber Monday.
