The Black Friday Prank Shopper is Back…Monday Show and Tell!

For the past few years, a guy on YouTube named Greg Benson has posted Black Friday prank videos, where he goes to a store with a list of items that don’t exist . . . and tries to get employees to help find them anyway.  He doesn’t actually do it ON Black Friday, because it would be IMPOSSIBLE to get someone to help him.  But this year, he had people suggest items ONLINE.  Then his wife compiled the best ones, so he wouldn’t see them until he got to the store.
