Re: POLL: Black Friday Shopping
We might head out to the stores at some point, but no plans to hit the doorbuster-type sales. I have no idea what I'm getting anyone for Christmas this year and haven't even thought about it yet.
That said, I did snag a bunch of "gift bags" several weeks ago. Lands End had a great sale on their medium sized canvas tote bags and with monogramming, delivery, tax and everything I only spent about $15 each! I bought like seven of them for various family members and will be filling them with goodies. Now to figure out what those goodies should be!
I am not sure this year. While there are some good deals, it really not worth it going out. The only place I may go to is Petsmart for some blankets for our cats for their gifts. They are $4 a piece!
There is a vacuum I am eyeing @ Lowe's but I am not sure if I want to get up that early for a vacuum.....I may make some cinnamon rolls instead.

Nope...does not exist here. I didn't go whilst I lived in CA though either. There is crazy sales on Boxing Day here, but I avoid that too. I am not a fan of crazy shoppers, who are definitely not into the Christmas spirit! hahaha.
Nope. You could not pay me to go anywhere near a shopping area that day (I pretty much avoid them until New Year's.)
The only thing we need to get is some books for our nieces. I'll either try to go to a local bookstore mid-week or order the books online.
I sometimes check out the deals on Cyber Monday if there is something specific I'm looking for. But generally, we don't do a lot of shopping this time of year.

Do you plan on going black friday shopping? We don't go out. Usually, we hit up a local breakfast place for brunch and shop online between ordering and getting our food.
Where will you be shopping? If anywhere, probably acacia catalog and perhaps amazon.
What are you hoping to score? PJs for DH's mom and who knows what for his dad.
Which stores will you go to? None.
Does DH go with you? Yes. We "shop" together.
do you plan on going black friday shopping? Nope I am working from 3-12
Where will you be shopping? Normally I would hit Target or Walmart
What are you hoping to score? This year I am already finished with all the xmas shopping and have wrapped everything so i have no need to go to the crowded malls!
Does DH go with you? I HATE shopping black friday with DH. He is so easily irritated by ppl and I feel like you need an incredible amount of patience to survive black friday and he just doesn't have it.

Haha, I actually do get paid to go! I cover it for work.
Most places are opening at midnight this year so it's going to be easier than normal. I'm not shopping though (well, sometimes I'll pick up something if there's not a line) so it's easier.
I'll be starting at Toys R Us at 9 p.m., Walmart at 10 p.m., then probably Macy's at midnight and hit up at least one other store, maybe Kohl's or Target, after that.
i don't shop on BF .. oh hells no. the same deals they have BF they also have Cyber Monday :P
so sad that i'm at the point where i'd rather shop from the comfort of my couch in my jammies ...
