I've never been shopping on Black Friday, but this year, I have to be at work at Kohls by 3:45 a.m. and they open at 4 a.m. And I get off at 12:30 p.m. Since I've never even been out shopping that morning, I have no idea what to expect. But people who've worked at Kohls for a while keep talking about huge lines and people waiting outside all night to get a spot in line.
I have to admit--I just don't get it. I can see doing something like that for a store like Best Buy, where they have all those big appliances and t.v.'s for really cheap, but Kohls?? I guess they have small kitchen appliances and stuff like that. But still. 4 a.m. is just sooooo early!
Will you be getting up early to go shopping? And if so, where are you going?
Re: Will you be going shopping on Friday?
Hell to the No.
I did that once and it was way too much for me to handle (I have problems with crowds), then I worked black friday at the mall and it was insane.
MIL and SIL go every year and they actually start at Kohls cause its the first to open generally and even at 4 the store is full of people. Last year SIL got a gps at kohls for really cheap and it wasn't a terrible one - its wasn't top of the line, but it was still really good. They tend to carry stuff like that around Christmas (at least here they do) and like you said the home stuff can be cheap - especially things like the vacuums (think expensive dyson for cheap).
Ahhh yes, they are pushing the vacuums this year I believe. And I have seen GPS's and stuff like that. They also have a lot of ipod accessories I think.
I think I heard somewhere that Toys R Us is opening at midnight.
This. Kohl's is INSANE on Black Friday. Make sure you have plenty of caffeine!
I have decided I'd much rather go to work than go shopping. So, that's my plan

I havne't yet and I dont plan to start.
I find it hysterical but my FIL is going to go out on Friday. He plans to get to Walmart super early to get my step daughter a GPS for Christmas. I was cracking up. He is NOT a shopper, but he is all excited about the deal. My MIL and I said have fun because we won't be going out that day.
i will be working. i'm actually really excited about it this year! i was pregnant and SO blah last year, i didn't enjoy it at all, but being management and all this year, i am really excited. and it's always so crazy busy that the day goes by really quickly.
oh and PS...victoria's secret calls it PINK friday.
