Black Friday shopper Jarvis Johnson seems to be a pro when it comes to getting the best deals on Black Friday. MStars News has learned that the Pheonix man has been camping out at a local Best Buy one week before the sales hit at Thanksgiving. Oh, and his tent isn't the typical one with just a sleeping bag. Johnson has a bed, a TV and a microwave for his food.

So, he basically has a house sitting at the doors at Best Buy.

In the video below, the Fox 10 reporter claimed Johnson's tent looked like MTV Cribs. It really did, just the tent version.

So how did Johnson prepare so well? He said that he's been camping out for over eight years and learned how to get better with his equipment every time. "I've been doing this for eight years and I've gotten smarter every year. The early bird gets the worm and I'm an early, early, early, bird, so I got the worm," Johnson said.

Like we said, earlier. Johnson has a microwave, bed, electricity, a cooler for his food and drinks and a TV – but still hasn't figured out how to get Wi-Fi. "Man's got to sleep and he's got to sleep comfortable," Johnson told the Fox 10 reporter.

Johnson said that the workers in Best Buy have been very nice letting him stay out in front of their store until they open for Black Friday. Johnson also had tips for people that plan on shopping on that day. He said shoppers need to get out early, because it makes your chances better at getting something that you really wanted.

Johnson also did a rap during his interview, and looks like he wants to get a 49 inch TV for $149 this time around.
