"Black Friday" is nearly upon us. Many retailers are again offering bargain sales, some for only a few hours.

We found about 75 folks already lining up outside the Best Buy in Iwilei Thursday night.

The store is opening at 5 a.m., but customers are hoping to get special "doorbuster" tickets.

Those tickets can be used to purchase special limited quantity items.

The people at the front of the line have been waiting since 9 p.m. Wednesday night!

Others we talked to say it's worth the wait.

"Just to get a waterproof camera. Yeah I want to take some pictures underwater," said Miechol Canteros, who had been waiting in line since 2 p.m. Thursday.

"What did your friends or relatives tell you when you told them you were going to camp out here?" KGMB9 asked. "Oh Mike you crazy! Haha!" Canteros said.

"Get to stay with my friends, talk story, meet new friends over there, then hopefully get (a) new computer," said Jeffrey Lucas.

Some folks are playing cards to pass the time. Many also brought lawn chairs and sleeping bags. We noticed that some had already dozed off.
