Shopping habits end Black Friday?

I understand the point of Black Friday to be a store offering some crazy deals in an attempt to lure you into the store. The store doesn’t want to sell everyone a $99 tv, but by offering 3 per store they can get 100 people to show up.

Over the course of the last few years, more and more people are shopping for these deals online. If this pattern continues, the store will only be selling the deep discounted items and will, most likely, not be able to get you to buy those other impulse buys you may have made in the store.

The end result will be stores not being able to offer such deep discounts because of the losses they aren’t making up in extra item sales.
