Just arrived at the Barney's Warehouse Sale when the blackout happened.  Hard-core shoppers (and who isn't when schlepping to those semi-annual events) didn't miss a beat.  Security guard to would-be shoe afficionnados: 'No, you CANNOT take the shoes outside of the shoe area.' Customer: 'But it's dark in here, we just want to get closer to the windows to see them.'
