A year after a Wal-Mart worker was trampled to death by a massive crowd of bargain-hunting shoppers, the retail giant is implementing new crowd control measures to handle the crush that typically accompanies the day after Thanksgiving – Black Friday.

Among the measures:

• Most Wal-Mart stores will stay open from Thanksgiving night into Black Friday. In the past, the store closed Thanksgiving and opened its doors in the early morning hours Friday, leading to a huge crowd buildup outside its doors. The store hopes the extra hours will ease the crowd flow.

• To avoid the mad dash toward popular items, the store will have customers line up at product displays and treat them on a first come, first serve basis.

• Since Wal-Mart stores only have one entrance, making crowd control more difficult, workers will be stationed at the front of the store directing customers to the appropriate places.

All the Wal-Mart’s stores will be open day and night on the eve and all the toys will be available for $10 each plus 97 cent for shipping.
Staples have unmasked their offers through online ads. Its online store offers discounts for a range of gadgets like computers, LCD monitors, digital cameras, GPS units and USB flash drives. 21.5’’ monitor for $90 and 3.5” GPS unit for $ 69.99 are on the offer.

Kohl’s Black Friday ads detail the various discount patters it offers for clothes. Buyers can expect 33-60 % off for shirts, coats, and sweaters while lingerie and slippers will be sold with 50-60% off. Big reduction on sterling silver and diamonds are also worth waiting for.

“When you log onto GE’s site, you can do this yourself pretty easily. Basically, you print out a special marker that looks like a solar panel, activate your computer’s webcam, and then point the marker so it faces your webcam. The smart grid should automatically open up on your screen, and you can even blow into your computer’s microphone to make the turbines spin faster. The Augmented Reality ad also has a solar energy option.”
