Black Friday: Who's going, what are you after?

if we get our homebuyers credit in by then, we will be in the market for a Canon Rebel and a new TV.  We're putting one of those electric fireplaces in the living room and want to hang the TV over it, because the way it is now Elise just gets too close for my comfort.

Hopefully they have some good deals!

    Smart girl.  I did it once.  2 years ago.  Worst day ever.  I'll never do it again.  I'd rather stay home in my warm pj's and watch trashy tv all day.

    When is this not the right answer? Add lots of online shopping, and hopefully this is my day too.

  • Most companies offer the same deals online as well as the store. Paying the shipping is worth it to me rather than fighting the crowds. With that being said in college and right after I used to LOVE Black Friday crowds. One of my favorite days ever. Now that I"m old and crotchety not so much.

  • Lucky you! I can't wait to see your photos!!!! :)

    I'm refusing to shop for anything for me before Christmas, and I'm not really spending much on family this year, so I'll probably not be going.

  • i do agree with the online thing too, in fact Sears has a great sale going on thanksgiving night. they have some good stuff in their BF ad.
  • one of the few good things about living in podunkville here is that the black friday shopping is really not bad!  I've been to Wal-Mart each year at like 7 am and they still had a lot of stuff and no lines.  The only places here that get bad are Target and Old Navy.

  • christen, i always wonder why people even go to old navy on BF! that place is a total night mare!!  heehee.   the Prairieville walmart is pretty empty too. i went last year and it was like any normal day....totally strange to me. i did the Toys R Us thing 2 yrs ago....4am.....in the line wrapped around the building.....it is totally nuts! but i do enjoy it because i love the christmas spirit!! i am itching to put up my tree!
  • I've gone the past two or three years, but always in the afternoon. All the electronics and toys are wiped out by then, but you can still get some great deals. This is the first year I don't have to work on BF, so I might go at the crack of dawn just to say I did it one year.
