My sister bought tow goldfishes but no food for them.
I feel really bad for the goldfishes because my sister didn't bring any food which is really dumb. I'm going to take them pack to the pet store tomorrow morning? will they be fine without food for 12 hours? or so?

Yes, they will be absolutely fine
I just hope that your sister got at LEAST a 20 gallon tank for them as well because they can get really really big
But if you keep them in a bowl you will stunt their growth and they will die a cruel death
here is some info

Oh yes, they'll be fine for 12 hours or longer. I've heard up to 2 weeks is fine. Plus, they'll usually find algae or bits of food to eat in the tank(if it's an established tank, not a brand new one).

Okay to the person who said that gold fish can live up to 3 years, Do you ALWAYS believe what your friends say?
Let me ask this, Could I put you in a fish tank and not feed you for 3 years?
Are you a blonde?
Okay, now as far as the guy asking the question
Ive got gold Fish They suck they are the worst fish you can have in your tank they are the dirties fish at that . I wouldnt advice anyone of you to have goldfish unless they are for your kids, and you won them at a carnival such as in my case!

Most fish can live of of the oil they carry in their liver(?) or one organ i forgot...
Anyways they can live for 2 weeks without food even then they will appear real weak.
