The end of Thanksgiving day marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season with annual Black Friday sales. Unfortunately, it also marks the time when shoppers lose their damn minds in search of seasonal deals on name brand items. Experts agree that the best way to avoid the long lines is to do your shopping over the internet. Cyber Monday will soon be here and according to Adobe Analytics, shoppers will spend an estimated $6B this year. It is predicted that over the five-day period between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday, consumers will spend $19.7B.


In order to outwit the long line of shoppers, some folks are disguising themselves as store employees and even selling Walmart vests. Two Twitter users posted the following:
