People lining up for hours for Boxing Day Sales

I can guarantee you could find it cheaper online even with the supposed 'sale' prices.

I'd rather be kicked in the testicles rather than shop in Boxing Day ...

What's worse is the people who line up overnight... and that's not just for Boxing Day. I've seen it tons of times for things like iPads, iPhones and the Playstation 4.

Why not wait a week or two and not line up at all?

After killing my bank account in the lead up to Xmas, the last thing I'd want to be doing on Boxing Day is more shopping!

Pierce Brosnan playing James Bond in Die Another Day.
Then also using the crappiest pick up lines ever on Halle Berry (in hot bikini) & ends up in the sack with her. WTF. Only in the movies eh.

So it kind of makes sense to line up for one. ;)

No not at all. All of the PS4 where pre orders, so if you had done the pre order you where going to get one on the release date. Instead of lining up you could of went and got it the next day without lining up. iPad and iPhones don't have a pre order so it's first in gets it, but in saying that I think you would have a better chance of doing it over the phone and having it shopped to you.

You still had to line up to collect the PS4's when they came in. You had a short window to pick up your pre-order before they sold it to someone else that was there. I know of 2 people that didnt get their pre-order in early enough, but someone didnt come pick theirs up in time, so they got them before Xmas. It was pretty cut throat.

Mate picked his up the day after the release from JB. Jb where advertising saying they only had so many left for pre orders before Xmas after that you had to wait until January. Harvey Norman where giving people that had pre ordered a week to collect or they would have to wait until January
