Black Friday Flash Fiction

Patricia Abbott, a writer, ran a Black Friday flash fiction challenge. It was sort of based on both Black Friday and the People of Wal-Mart blog.

This story is, by far, my favorite of the ones I've read. I didn't think it would be possible to write a hard-boiled type story about Black Friday, but Dan O'Shea pulled it off.
