Best Buy has launched a "VIP" contest to give customers a Black Friday shopping spree

By Stephen Silver

Best Buy this week launched a contest, geared towards Black Friday, in which 25 lucky customers will be designated as "VIPs."

Customers are invited to share their stories on why Black Friday is important to them and their families, and their rituals for shipping on the day after Thanksgiving. The contest kicked off this week and runs through Nov. 18; one winner will be chosen for each major city in the U.S.

Those customers will win a $1,000 Best Buy gift card, and will also receive a chance to shop early on Black Friday, a limousine ride to and from the store, and "on-site pampering." The winners will also receive a Pure Digital Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder.
