transformer./// ((christianne klein)) thanks for joining us this thanksgiving. i'm christianne klein. for many... the turkey dinner is done and over with... and now comes time grab some deals. as of late... the black friday offers have gotten earlier and earlier... and now meld into the thanksgiving holiday. shakala alvaranga has been catching up with shoppers tonight... and shakala.. many stores have already been open for hours.. ((shakala alvaranga)) >> yes christianne, many stores like walmart, target, shoppers have camped out for days, some sleeping in their cars ... just to save some cash this holiday season. ((shakala alvaranga)) let the games begin. "ha...pretty much we've been standing out here forever!" ((shakala alvaranga)) after days of camping out, waiting to get in... "we played a lot of games and got to know each other real well...haha" ((shakala alvaranga)) themselves this holiday season. "this is for myself haha...early christmas present." ((shakala alvaranga)) and others, getting ready to play santa clause. "we are here for the 7 inch kindle tables for $33 bucks. i'm going to grab up so much and pass them out like candy for christmas." ((shakala alvaranga)) michael deang was the first in line at the best buy in henderson. and... the first one out. "i bought a camera bought a $200 tv 4k hd." ((shakala alvaranga)) some shoppers skipped the long lines entirely, opting for an online deal ... or a lucky ticket. "these were ticketed items so there were only limited so they gave us a ticket and we just went up the counter and got them." ((shakala alvaranga)) the best deals came from a cheap tv... "i don't get to get my kids much for christmas so this time of the year is the time that i can really splurge for them." ((shakala alvaranga)) to tablets. surface tablet for $599. it's normally like $900." ((shakala alvaranga)) though we didn't see the black friday frenzy we've seen in the past. there's still a lot of people that enjoy a good bargain. "we've been waiting for a long time. but yeah, the deals are great. you can't beat it." ((shakala alvaranga)) and they say the wait is certainly worth it. ((shakala alvaranga)) >> here at best buy, the doors will close in two hours -- morning at 8 to officially kick off black friday. reporting live shakala alvaranga 8 news now. /// ((christianne klein)) of course... after black friday comes cyber monday. but experts say the prices you see online might be different from what other people see. turns out... it sometimes depends on your location. a team of researchers at northeastern university tested sites.. and found on nine of those sites.. customers saw different results and/or prices. that's because once you're logged in... companies can see your search history... the type of computer you use.. and location.. to personalize a price: (( christo wilson / computer and information scientist "you really have no idea why it's showing you what's its showing you." "companies are always experimenting with different strategies and algorithms." )) ((christianne klein)) >> so what can you do to figure out if the price you see is the lowest price? well... setting your browser to "private" or "incognit but using a virtual private network or v-p-n will. you can download some for free -- better ones will cost you around 20-dollars a year./// ((christianne klein)) if you're sitting at home watching this newscast... you're probably still in somewhat of a food coma after today's feast. the calorie control council says the average american takes in 45-hundred calories on thanksgiving. to put into perspective what you'd need to do... if you wanted to burn that off... workouts. 15 hours of pushups... or row a boat for 5 hours straight... or just run two marathons back to back. fortunately.. there is some good news... the university of michigan found that eating an extra four thousand calories doesn't affect your body... as long as you exercised for two and a half hours at some point this week./// ((weather toss)) ((tedd florendo)) (( we had big storms that pushed through east clark county this morning but have not since dissipated. flooding was

((christianne klein)) coming up... a life-changing program for students. eight schools in clark county are partnering with a local nonprofit to offer it... but even though it's free.. some families are hesitant to take part. plus... some controversy is already brewing over the vegas golden knights... and the nhl's newest franchise hasn't even taken the ice yet. we're back in 3 minutes/ teachers can tell when a student is having trouble at home. but they can't always fix it. luckily, there is a program that picks up on the need, and can fix it... in the home. dave courvoisier shows us how a boys town nevada program is a lifesaver for troubled families. (( )) myrtle tate elementary 3rd-grader adrian lerenas is a model student -- now. a few months ago, he was angry, disruptive. his parent's divorce left him without the means to cope. a lot of our parents just don't know where to go for help. they maybe came from dysfunctional families and simply they don't have the skills to raise the children they would that they want. luckily, myrtle tate elelmentary is one of eight schools in the district that have boys town nevada ready to answer the need. the counselor can either set up a meeting for me to talk to the family one-on-one or they can just write up a referral and send it over to us. teachers aren't they can't go into the homes and help the kids. but we can. we make sure the kids are prepared to come to school and learn and when they're prepared not only are they learning and other siblings are learning but they're not being disruptive in class so all the kids learn. there is no cost to the family when boys town steps in to help , but sometimes, there is reluctance. i think the biggest challenge is like what i just explained is that sometimes the parents are just afraid you know of having someone come into their home and you know work with them and their children you might call immigration on them and have them removed and things like that. but adrian's mom welcomed the chance to learn better parenting, and in doing so give her son the tools to cope. so mom here wanted to help her son and so when we came we just provided skills, resources, and you know support to make her be independent and to make her help him. ((christianne klein)) >> tomorrow, we'll see how boys town family counselor works with mother and son to turn things around in the home./// ((christianne klein)) once again las vegas entertainers are stepping up to help the marine corps "toys for tots" campaign.
