Why do stores open at 4am today? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

YorkieMom55 · 11-23-2007, 08:33 AM

Well, we're home and the only "bloodletting" was the lady that was running across the parking lot to get into Kohl's at 4am, slipped on the only ice in the parking lot and fell. It was obvious that she broke both bones by her ankle and the EMT was more worried about her hip.
Last year daughter saw 2 women socking it out over a Cabbage Patch Doll. Everyone in the stores were having fun, Kohl's was a 2 hr wait for the checkout. Home, getting ready for a nap.
Hope everyone had a great "hunt".

Be careful I heard its a mad house out there!! I'm staying home and not dealing with the tons of weird people who are rude.

o jeez! I was up at 3:10AM getting ready to go shopping @ Kohls. First time in like forever! Anyways, got lots of toys for the nieces as cheap prices. They are pretty much done now.

I'm now getting ready to go back out to the madness!

be safe,

Carrie

Here's what I was wondering, do you Wake UP or Stay Up to get to the store by 4AM?

I have a mall across the street from my apt compex, it's at walking distance from my house so to avoid looking for a parking space and walked. I woke up at 7:20, so I though, why not walking there and see if there is anything good??? So I got up I spent a couple of hours there. The lines weren't that bad and I got a few things for xmas presents.

I just got up from a nap but we went out at 3am this morning to go to Circuit City, Best Buy, Target, and Meijer. We got everything we were looking for and then some. It was my boyfriends first time and he loved it. I always go after Thanksgiving. We got home around 930am and went to bed right away to take a nap. It was a lot of fun as always. I'm one of those crazy people who go out at 3am.

Tiggerwit · 11-23-2007, 11:17 AM

I'm saving to maybe go next year. I did have to run up to Target today 10am. I got a bunch of movies for 5.98 and 3.98. Ended up with 6 movies, paper towels, 3 pairs of $1 socks and a couple other dollar things for under $50.

They had a 10" DVD player normally for $149 on sale for $84. I shoulda grabbed one of those.

Amy81 · 11-23-2007, 03:50 PM
