Are you going shopping on Black Friday?

[Angelseyes28]

The closer it gets the more excited I get!!! My best friend and I go and have a BLAST!!!!
So is there anyone else that is crazy enough to be out in the Black Friday rush?!:D

[the1bea]

I love shopping on black friday!!! I hate going with the hubby because he gets, like, road rage in the waiting outside in the lines. But I may go with my grandma this year, if I have some money. LOL

[captorquewrench]

not on your life, not even if I was paid to do it!

[ilikefree]

You bet! My sister and I have made it our tradition to go. Even if we don't really need anything, it's fun to watch the people fighting over stuff!

[buttrfli]

This will be my first time! If it weren't for the walmart "rumor" sale on the carebears i'd skip it LOL

[Unicornmom77]

I dont go...It is just to crazy for me! lol HAVE FUN YA'LL

[CarolinaBlue]

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

You couldn't pay me to go shopping on that day!

[suziebee20]

Yup! Last year, me, my sister and her friend who's her age, went. Me and Moe wern't tired so while my sister slept we stayed up and watched TV, we thought it would be cool to stay up until 5 and then go leave for Walmart... we fell asleep around 3/4 and woke up at 6! It was sooo funny, the three of us were freaking out, we tossed on clothes and woke my grandpa up, by the time we got there the line to get in was huge... we went to Walmart, then headed over to Target, then made our way to KB Toy store, where there were a bazillion people waiting to get in, and they only let 20 people in the store at a time. Stood there for over 2 hours, and got the last Bionical- should have bought it at Walmart, but at the time saving like $3 sounded worth it. We're coming up with a better "game plan" and going again. :) Hehe, our parents didn't think we'd actually do it last year, Moe's mom was surprised we went.

[momof2ct]

Im going for sure. Our living room TV just broke and we need a new one, also I want to get the DVD player and The Lion King. I cant remember if I saw Finding Nemo on that list or not. Also I am hoping for some Leapfrog stuff on sale too. :rolleyes: :)

[HumblePie98]

NOT ME!! I sell mercandise for a living... Bob the builder, pooh, and tons of other stuff!! It's cheaper for me to get it at my cost

[unicorn9149]

Love Black Friday. I always got up early, hit the stores and still got to work by 9. Last year DH even got in on it. Alas, this year I'm working the retail end of it since I'm the head of Men's aparrel. What an eye-opener. We're having a huge sock sale and there are hundreds of cases of socks everywhere LOL

I'm pretty sure they are in the paper on Thanksgiving. It's usually just crammed with ads.

I'm going, but not to buy gifts. Want to check out that pc at Walmart for myself.

[flowerfairy]

I am going with my best friend and her mom! I think it will be a lot of fun I have only been shopping the day after Thanksgiving one time before :rolleyes:

[VenusA423]

I haven't before, my mom always refused to get out in that mess. Guess I'll just have to check the ads the day before to see if there's anything worth going through all that "fun". And if I can convinced my husband to be the driver.. lol. :p

[Xica]

I did ONCE. I don't care how cheap things are, to me it's not worth it.

[erniemarie]

only going if some store has killer deals on baby stuff like cribs car seats strollers and all that fun stuff, I don't really need anything for myself though I am being tempted by that 2 quart slow cooker for 4.96 at wally world, might go put it in layaway and get a price adjustment that friday

[teenap]

I have to "work"
:(

[ezmoney163]

I am so excited this is my first year to go. Not that there is anything that has really caught my eye yet, but I wanna see the crazys fight over the merchandise. LOL My sil's all go and have a blast and this year I have made babysitting arangements so I can go too. I am excited. I even figured all my bills around that particular payday so I can have all of DH's check. LOL
:D:D:D:D

Save some deals for me.!!!

[schsa]

No way, never. No. Not in this life time. Over my dead body. Forget it.

[zitra]

I have never been, and from stories I have heard, I have no desire to start.

[Sun_Angel]

ABSOLUTELY!! I love black friday. When I have money that is, lol. Of course I am putting back some so that won't be an issue.

[jan8262]

Last year I made it a point to get to JoAnn's to get the 99 cent patterns -

I was wondering why no one else what there, then at the checkout realized that the patterns didn't go on sale until SAT !

SO....they cashier asked if I would like her to bag them and put my name on them, and hold until the next day -

Saturday, all I had to do was go to the cash register, claim the bag, pay and go - Got all of the costume etc patterns I wanted!

(the pattern area was packed on Sat)

Just an idea for this year............

(I make out a list of the patterns I want a week or so before so I can just start grabbing out of the drawers)

[newwiccan]

If I still lived in Colorado,I would definitely go! But I live in the middle of nowhere in AZ now and the shopping choices are terrible. I'm going to miss going! :(

[redrig]

I think I'll venture out to Walmart and get me some of those 9.99 wrangler jeans. I've needed new ones for a while, might be worth it to try and brave it.

[Angelseyes28]

LOL I'm gonna do the same thing. Going to try them on Friday when I get groceries, that way I will already know what size to get, so all I will have to do is grab em during the sale;)

[Dolly<3]

I go b/c I love the crowds. I guess I'm weird that way. I just love that everyone is in there for the same thing and it's so obvious that we have at least one thing in common. Even when they're fighting and trying to steal stuff out of my cart :mad: I love it. :D

[PreciousDarlin]

I will probably end up having to work that morning (at Walmart of all places). Heck, I might even volunteer to come in and work that morning cause that means I get off earlier......and I have already requested Saturday off for my family's Thanksgiving dinner. But, I have learned from experience (shopping for myself as well as work one Blitz day at Walmart) that if you wait until about 10am and walk through the store, just looking everywhere, you will more often than not find everything that you wanted anyways that someone snatched up and then put back down somewhere because they decided they didn't really want it after all. And the sale price remains the same until all of that merchadise is gone because we get it in especially for Blitz. Even if that is two weeks later, it is still that same price. Just a bit of advice for all of you who don't wanna brave the crowds.

[Judy]

NO

[Shancopp]

Me and 2 friends are going! Can't wait!!!! I really wanna find the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Lair for less than $40! Took the day off of work just to shop!

[jaybird]

We go every year. But not necessarily with the ads and a list in hand. We hit one of the bigger malls here, just spend the day. Or we drive down to the lake to the outlet mall. They've JUST opened St. Louis Mills, retail and outlet stores, 300 or so! I think that's where we'll be on Black Friday.

IF the ads have anything I absolutely HAVE to have, I send Stubby. HE can fight the lines and the crazy women. Otherwise, I'd rather pay 'normal' sale price for the item. It's not worth it to wait an hour for a store to open, only to find out they're out of the item I wanted.

The Walmart here last year didn't even put any of the special deals out on the floor until that morning. Nobody was allowed to even put it in their carts until the 6am time the sale started. There had to be a hundred people parked around that aisle, all with their carts blocking everything. You almost have to do that anymore, they only have so many of each thing.

[IselaRose]

WHAT IS BLACK FRIDAY????????????????????????????????

[PrincessArky]

I go every year and this is no different (even though I will be 36 wks preg and hope to not get knocked down)

IselaRose Black Friday is the day after thanksgiving when tons of people go out way too early to get cheaper prices....it is the biggest shopping day of the year in the United States

[Shancopp]

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, when many people get started on thier Christmas shopping and the stores have usually great sale prices to lure us in!!!

[Gherky]

HECK NO!!!!!

[IselaRose]

lol, ok i guessed that was what it was but i wasn't familiar with the label

[Char]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!

LOVE IT - LOVE IT - LOVE IT !!!

Can't hardly wait ! Going to have a ball !

[momfromTN]

I did it last year at WalMart. Me and my mom were there at 430 am. We got what we wanted once the tarps were pulled down and got the heck OUT of there.
I don't think I want to do it again.

[morninglight23]

Yes going after having not been able to go for several years. Got my safety gear ready!


Oh and let me tell all of you Wal-Mart will NOT ad match on black Friday items UNLESS it is something they already have listed and another store has it cheaper....so you can't get the $49.99 Game Boy Advance (K-Mart black friday list) at Wal-Mart for that price becausethey do not have it on their list.

[ttistin]

ok so you mean I can go to wally world and show them the toys-r-us flyer saying they have lion king for $9.99 and they have it on sale for $11.00 and they will match the toys-r-us price??

or is it something else lol

[Angelseyes28]

Mine will price match anything other than the big ticket items like the gameboy advanced etc.
I got a ton of stuff from walmart last year off of other ads, like towels, playdough, videos, clothes and other things that weren't in walmarts sale paper. I think it just all depends on each individual walmart.

Looks like I am going to have to call my wally world up and see if they will do this.

[Shancopp]

ANyone know for sure if you go NOW and get some of the items on the BF list, will they price adjust ?? I know if they do, you have to do it during the sale (6a to 11a). Just thought I'd go get a couple things now to make sure I get them. Thanks for any info!

[Gumball1960]

If I can't get anything else, I want the Lion King DVD. My daughter has been bugging me to see it since they re-released it and the library copy is always gone. :rolleyes:

[PrncsNYC]

I can't remember who is having the deal on the dvd player...anyone remember? my mom wants to know the cheapest place I thought I'd have her start there.

[twinkiesmom]

If I get bored, I might go for a ride.

[Shancopp]

DVD player.........(unnamed brand as of now)
Target......$12.99........limit 2......6am to 11 only.

[Unicornmom77]

Gosh I wanna go esspecially after I looked at this web site http://blackfriday.everydeal.com/sales.php

MAN!! If only we had more money!! LOL I already got behind on the bills getting DHs Xmas gifts of FSOT!! LOL

[laughsalot]

Unfortunatly I will be working! Hope everyone else has fun!

[adair]

absolutely NOT.

I will be going to an Eric Burdon and The Animals concert instead.

[jdglmg]

YES YES YES!!!

Even if there isn't anything I want to buy, lol! I love going to the black Friday sales!

[fatesfaery]

nope.....not even if that were the only day I could buy presents. Crowds tear my nerves to shreds.

Last time I did Black Friday was '98. Best Buy had a 56k modem for 4.95. We got there at 5:30, they opened the doors at 6, by the time we got to the computer section they were gone. One of the guys who worked there told us that they only had 5 to begin with.

Decided then that I'd spend black friday at home sound asleep.

[Unicornmom77]

Wow thats crazy! lol I would prolly be discuraged too!
