Is anyone braving the Black Friday Sales?

I never do.  We are going to get some shopping done that Sunday though.  I imagine the malls will be jam packed, but we are going to brunch with friends followed by shopping. 

Re: Is anyone braving the Black Friday Sales?

  • NO WAY! I used to work in retail, and I would never do the Black Friday thing. But I'm the type of person who would rather spend a little more money and not be crowded by people.

  • i usually do... its crazy... my aunt usually comes for thanksgiving and lives for black friday so we all usually to the mall. but shes not coming this year and my mom is happy to stay home. a teeny part of me wants to go, but i don't know. and if i do end up going i definitely will not be getting up at 3am!

    my sister works in retail and has to be at work at 3am on black friday. no thank you!

  • I went with my mom to the stores at 5am, it must have been back in 2007, and I wanted to vomit from being up so early. The crowds to get electronics didn't help either.

    Since then there hasn't been any big ticket items we've needed around Black Friday, so I haven't gone early. I don't plan to go really early again, but I will probably go out at some point that weekend if I can come up with gift ideas.

  • Definitely not for the crazy early stuff, but might go shopping sometime during the day on Friday if I can figure out what the heck I'm getting for people.  I love a good deal, but I hate getting frustrated with crowds and craziness.

  • I hope not, but my H loves doing it so I might have to go be his wingman.  I hate getting up early and I hate shopping in crowds, so it is so not my thing.  DH loves a good deal though.  We'll see what's in the ads and hopefully I can get out of it if there aren't too many things we want to buy.
  • Yup :)  We go every year and have a blast!  Although I'm usually not going for electronics so it's not that bad.

  • I really want to go to save money this year and go for christmas presents. However, I have never gone and am super scared to see what its like. MH is extremely crazy about huge crowds and I know he will hate it but our conscious is saying....GO! Where do you research all the deals anyway besides the paper?
