Whoever came up with the solution for checkout for Thanksgiving Day should be fired.   The lines were crazy.  I stood for 30 minutes in a line to checkout just to find out that the line lead to NOWHERE.   People were leaving empty handed because they could not figure out how to check out.    There was no way to get from one side of the store to the other because of the way they had the lines winding through the entire store.    People opened the 6pm things way before 6 and since people were still in line at 7:30 they went ahead and took what they wanted from the 8pm release since they would not be to the register until after 8.    I did not get out of there until 9:15pm .  It is my opinion they tried to over organize it and they made shopping crazy.     I did like that they had added security that they hired.   I also thought it was cute that McDonalds had a cart that they were selling things from in the store.  But the stuff was cold if you bought it.  (Great idea in theory but a hotbox would have helped.)    Maybe next year have numbers that people get when they are ready to check out.    Call them by the 100's   all of the 100's please come to the register area.   If they are not ready   too bad they need to get a new number.     That will teach them for getting a number before they are ready.    All the 200's your up.    This would keep people from standing in lines and they can maybe use that time walking around the store buying other things.
