Shopping issue.

If you are refering to Black Friday, my daughter and I made our first stop at the outlet stores at midnight when they opened. Then we went on to another store, got there at 2am for it to open at 5am. However, my daughter got everything on her list and saved over $100. We were up a total of 27 hours from Thanksgiving morning until we got home from shopping at 10am Friday morning! We were home all of 30 minutes before we were fast asleep! It was the first time either of us had shopped on Black Friday, but we made the best of it and had a good time together.

My wife,mother-inlaw and sisterin-law go out on Black friday to do christmas shopping. They go out to get the good deals. I stay at home to be with the kids and that is fine with me. I do not like alot of crowds and on that day there is alot.

I agree with you 100% so someone else will get my share of these great deals that are to be had at this ungodly hour! My favorite way to shop is online, from the comfort of my own home.

I went shopping the day after thanksgiving, they have been calling it Black Friday..Anyway no i did not get up at 5:00am, i was sleeping ..I do not like to get out that early in the morning since it is cold.If it were summer time maybe but when i get up i drag around, drink coffee,and just relax and stay cuddled up with a blanket...The day i shopped i only went to a couple of stores,but i did shop a long time...I did find a lot of bargins.I love to shop but i do not like to fight to do it..I purchased lots of pretty paper and bows and found some things for the kids.i opened a charge card this year from Montgomery ward, and i did a lot of shopping from their book and got it brought to my house by UPS..I have a love/hate relationship when it comes to the christmas season, including Thanksgiving..I enjoy shopping, wrapping gifts and giving gifts, putting up the tree and hearing all the christmas carols, but i also have somewaht of a hate for the endings of it all.It seems i get all built up for a big thing and then its over and i get sad.I also lost my dad and i miss him, and two years ago i lost my Mom,and a few months ago we lost my kids dad.it seems every bad thing, every death has happened around the holiday season and it tends to hang like a cloud over me during this time.while it is all going on its fine then afterward i have this big let down and i miss my loved ones...
