    Black Friday shopping

    So I thought I would capitalize on some good deals at Wal-Mart this morning. They were starting the "sale" at 5am and I got there are 4:45 and the parking lot was full. Had to park in a parking lot about 500 yards away.

    I found the line for the 19" flat screen I was looking for. At 5a they start moving folks through and I got my TV. Then I had to work my way across the store for a printer. That place is CRAZY!!!!!!

    I got out of there with a 19" TV and an all in one HP Printer for $160, but the experience/surviving the early morning madness was priceless.

    Black Friday is my wifes opening day! She and her friends start on their game plan on monday. They are serious about Black Friday. I myself refuse to be a part of it. I would end up goin to jail! Sometimes I wonder if the little bit of money saved is worth the hassle of dealing with all the people. Especially at 5 in the morning!

      My wife left and is back already. She was gone about a hour and a half and the store is 20 mins away. She got what she wanted and got out. She said it was a mad house but it wasn't too bad.

        My wife, sister, and mother-in-law are doing an all day shopping spree today. They stayed up late last night figuring out where they wanted to go and what they wanted to get. They left from the ranch this morning at 3 headed for corpus so who knows what they will come back with.

            We just got back and if you didn't want a big TV, it wasn't too bad. Got most of the boy's presents knocked out.

                  I got up at 5:45 to go hunting and was hoping for a crowd but alas there was none.

                  In about 30 minutes I am going to head to town to get a couple of tires I ordered put on and that will be the extent of my money spending of today.

                          Im with you. Screw that! Online shoping is a wonderful thing. most places that have online shopping have the same prices as in the store. you can have it shipped either site to store for free or have it shipped tou your house pretty reasonably.

                            My wife and daughter left this morning at about 4:30 to meet her two sisters.
                            AAAAHHHHH peace and quiet.

                              thinking about going to Home depot for the Vac, it is 80% off. But I still am not sure it is worth getting out of the house for it. If they have any left.
