New You left out the obvious: Employees throwing them in the air
Featherbrain hoots:
That was what I wondered. Were the employees flinging them at people to keep the crowds back, or were shoppers throwing them in the air, and for what?
Why didn't you mention the possibility that springs immediately to mind: That it was the employees throwing them in the air, for a kind of lottery as to which customer catches one?

Actually, yes I did think about that... only problem was, these are laptops. Not conducive to being thrown and or dropped... wouldn't they break if someone missed them? So to me, the employees throwing them didn't make any sense.

I did a sexy choreographed garter removal process to the song, "She's Got Legs", showing a lot of leg, and then as follows suit, tossed my bouquet. But bouquets don't break or have little sensitive electronics inside. ;)

But man, what if they hit someone on the head, I mean imagine the lawsuits!

Ah well, people really do stupid things sometimes.
