Black friday What kind of good black friday deals did you find? My Husband had to work so I had to watch my Daughter so I didnt go out but I did some online shopping and Im going out when he gets home |
There was NO WAY I was getting out and going shopping this morning. I don't really think that the deals were all that great. There were very few things that were good buys. Last night on the news they were confused why people were already in lines, they said that they think things will get even cheaper by Christmas. :rolleyes: I have done a little shopping online though but nothing to really brag about. |
Me either.the reports and news coverage they have every year is daunting,people fighting,kids getting hurt(why would you bring a child to that chaos) :mad: There was a fight at a walmart store already and the police were called. Did you guys know that when they have these sales and advertise larger ticket items the stores only get in about 5 :(of each item and I'm being generous. I do however want that mimi laptop:) and the wii game :)at walmmart but I am goin online for that. |
I searched Wal-mart's BF sales online this morning and mostly everything was out of stock already... go figure. :rolleyes: |
I went to a Walmart near me thats way out in the country. There wasn't that many people there, as usual, and was easy to get the things I wanted. I got kids pajama sets and jogging suits for $4, 4gig thumb drive for $9, and a digital photo frame for $39. I only spent $100 but I got some much needed clothes for my 6 year old son. There was even some of the big doorbuster deals still sitting there when I left. |

(i didn't go shopping today.. but there are a couple places that have deals going on for any item, all day! so i will probably hit a couple of those stores later ;) -no staying overnight, standing in lines, etc for me!! :D |
We went out and about but didn't get anything good. I was looking for the $50 fake Christmas trees and a ladder at Home Depot. I got there at 630 and everything was gone already. |
We were out last night at midnight at our outlet mall and it was PACKED! I got a coach purse for my granddaughter for 65% off. It is really cute. My daughter got her husband some Tommy Hilfiger shirts for 75% off. My granddaughter got some cute clothes at Gap, and they were on sale, but I didn't think they were on sale enough to be a really good deal. Today Penny's had almost everything at 50% off from 4:00AM to 1:00PM. It was packed too. I didn't buy anything, but there were some pretty good deals. |
We went shopping today but didnt go to wal-mart. We dont shop there at all anymore. We did get some great deals. We got DH a WII and I go ta new laptop. We got all our shopping done in one day!!! There was one Wal-Mart that had to close cause one guy had a heartattack and there were 3 fights beak out all at one time, so they just closed the whole store. I dont think there is anything in this world worth all that!! |
A 34 yr old man who worked at walmart in long island got trampled on when he opened the dorrs to let people in and he died :( its so sad |
I'm nuts.... but not THAT nuts :D |

We went out at 4:30 this morning but came home empty handed of any deals. Just got essentials. |
My husband and I went to our Wallmart at 2am and were 6th in line to get a 42 inch wide screen LCD HDTV. They only had 10 and they actually had us line up and told people that were looking for the TV when the limit was reached so no one was fighting and going mad to get the items. At 5am 2 employees and My husband even helped load the TV's on to the carts. But some items were not controlled like our area was and a lady getting the $50 ride on Jeeps went a bit nuts and started to knock people over because she wanted 4 of them and they did not have a limit to one per person:thumbdown We still need to get our computer and I have a few clothing items I am looking to get for my 4 boy's and I will be done. I might pick up a few more things for the puppies too;) |
We got one of the $300 26-in flat screen tvs from Target. I got to Target at 5AM (They opened at 6) and the line wrapped around to the back of the store. I was standing all the way at the corner of the first side, I went in and got the last cart, and got a TV, then stood in line until 7 am to check out. By then it was pouring down rain, I loaded the tv and started home. As I pulled in the driveway, husband called fromWal-mart about 20 min from the house. He found a 42 in tv for his Mom, but didn't have enough money to pay for it. So back out in the rain again :rolleyes:, I did make him take me to breakfast, though :D |
I slept in :D but some of my family got up at 4am to get a laptop and other misc. items. Missed out on the laptop, but got some jeans, hoodies etc for $8. Not really too much this year. :( |
I had off work today but didn't go shopping anywhere. I did hear on the news about the guy that got trampled to death at a WalMart. :( That is so...sad. :( |
you know whats crazy that lots of people go out extra early, stand on lines and waitwhile others are at home ordering the same sale items online lol. I was able to get a 40" LCD and the sale items walmart was offering online :) |
I refuse to do anything but grocery shop on Black Friday, and that is what I did. I actually went shopping the day BEFORE Thanksgiving. The stores were quiet and there were some great deals. I picked Gracie and Holly up some really cute matching T-shirts at Target for $2.50 each ("Don't blame me, it was an accident" and "Naughty or Nice"), and picked up lots of small gifts for friends. I do believe that shopping the day BEFORE turkey day might be my new tradition. |

I didnt go anywhere lol i mean not shopping... i cannot deal with crowds of ppl like that. i would feel claustrophobic. My brother went last yr and said it was crazy |
I go shopping EVERY Black Friday. It is sad to hear about the violence and fighting that goes on.....There is no need to get so overwhelmed over an item at a store that you have to hurt someone or fight.... it just ain't worth it...... As for me it is a fun adventure. Getting up early and meeting my friends. Standing in line is a time for meeting new people, drinking hot coffee, and admiring the winter attire of others in line. Then......... there is the GAME PLAN. Who needs what from the store...and splitting the shopping list according to what dept....get what is on the list, no browsing :p... ... get in and get out. Avoid the LONG checkout lines if possible. For example.... we arrived at JC Pennys at 3:45 am - stood in line behind about 30 people. At 4 AM, the doors opened. My friend went to the womens dept for slippers for her Mom and a coat for my daughter, I proceeded to go up the escalator to housewares for a set of silverware. We both met at the door after paying for our purchases and quickly walked out to the car....... Yes we WALKED. Once I started the car, I looked at my watch..... it was 4:13 AM. Yahoo..... one done in record time..... then we went to Walmart... their deals started at 5 AM...... then to Target at 6 AM. The best part is having breakfast at a restaurant with my friends and giggling about our morning..... usually about 8 AM.... and then home for a quick nap before actually starting the day! :D We got some great purchases, cameras at Walmart, hoodies & coats (to donate to the local coat collection box), Disney DVD's, mittens and scarves, small hand tools, pillows, socks, etc. I always try to get the deals on the toys.... My grandchildren all have a "list", but it is hard to pass up a pretty Barbie at a bargain price..... so they go to the Toys for Tots program. Shopping on Black Friday is Great...... I try to go with a respect for others and an appreciation for the store employees. It can be really stressful on them, too! |
