Cheryl Haley, 37, said she was there for one purpose. “This the only thing on my little boy’s list,” said Haley, who arrived at 4 p.m. Thursday, pointing to the store circular advertising a $299 laptop. “I couldn’t pay SBOO for it.” She and her sister, Wendy Blount, 35, of nearby Lee County, argued over who earned the spot at the head of the line. “I drove her here, so I’m first,” Blount said. They were part of the 300 people lined up outside the store when the doors opened at 5 a.m. When the doors opened, shoppers rushed into the store, which was piled high with boxes of LCD computer monitors, DVDs and flat-screen televisions. Eric Gordon, 30, of Albany, arrived half an hour before the store opened _ far too late to get one of the limited number of bargain comput ers. “What ... was I thinking?” he said, noting it was his first Black Friday shopping experience. “I should have stayed in bed and shopped online.” In Atlanta, other shop pers arrived at stores early to take advantage of post- Thanksgiving sales. Darcey Fernandez, 25, of Gainesville, Fla., had been in line at a Best Buy store since 11:30 p.m. Thursday to get a $379 laptop and a 42- inch Panasonic TV for $999. After nearly eight hours in r First Nov 28 w Last Dec 12 SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2006 ♦ BONAIRE - Pierce Pollett, 84, passed away Wednesday. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. today at Bonaire United Methodist Church. Burial will follow in the Bonaire Cemetery. Pollett was born in Johnson County. His son and five siblings preceded him in death. Survivors include his wife Mary Ella Pollett of Bonaire and son Ted Pollett, two grandsons and several nieces and nephews. Holiday shoppers arrive early line, she was about to get the plasma TV - the only thing left. “We were all there talking and sombody got in front of the line in the last 15 min utes, so it got pretty tense,” she said. At a nearby Toys R Us, three sisters-in-law in matching red sweat shirts were about halfway done on a shopping spree that start ed at 4 a.m. with Circuit City and Target. “This is our 12th year doing it,” said Lidia Camp, of Naples, Fla., as they stuffed their SUV with Playstation games and Game Boys. Kelly Kashman had also woken up at 4 a.m. and was trying to fit a rocking chair and a big robot from Toys R Us in her SUV part of the $5,000 she plans to spend on holiday gifts. She looked cheerfully at the unusually calm mall parking lot, saying her strategy to drive up from Stockbridge, to this upscale Atlanta neighborhood had worked.
