Since this is the first year I did NOT go shopping, I want to live vicariously through you all!!!
Where did you go?
What did you get??
What good deals did you see?
I did! I did!
I went to Carson's and bought a braclet for my SIL, a suede jacket for a friend at work (early bird special ----$20!!!), a sweater and braclet for myself :).
Then I took my dad to this cute little shop, and he bought some Christmas mugs and such for my mom. I bought a plate holder and a Christmas hand towel and birthday cards.
Later I went to the mall, and bought 2 sweaters for my neice, 1 more for me :) and picked up some stuff for my mom for my other neice.
I am pooped!

of course i went.. started early this morning (4am)--- finished fh, niece, dad, cousin-
Some good deals i got-
Floam kit - Usually 9.00- on sale for 5.00- w/ coupon- 3.75 ;)
Disney Princess Barbie - On sale for 6.99
Buy one get one free Collar shirt- 9.99 total
Tommy Bahama shirt for Dad- 19.00 one for brother (usually 38.00 but it was a doorbuster)
I got alot of other stuff but nothing really incredible..
Well on the down side- macy's had a ridiculous coupon--- it was like 10% off however- it couldnt be used on like 40 brands (including INC, TOMMY BAHAMA ETC ETC) and it couldnt be used with anything that was on clearence or was an "every day special" --- this was EVERYTHING the whole day so it was a trick!!!!! everything was on sale and so people thought they could use their coupon and didnt find out until they went to the register after 30 min lines
I also had some good buys at pac sun but my mom got that stuff for my bro--- They were good shirts, volcom and stuff for like 8.00 - she got 10 shirts and will give some to my bro, fh and cousins. She had a coupon for 25 off 100 so she wound up spending 75 on 10 shirts and sunglasses (fh) thats a great deal-
Tell you the truth FH made out like a bandit--mom got him more stuff today then any of her BIOLOGICAL children and i the majority of the money was spent on him by me..... i tell ya---- he gets chanukka and xmas presents--- makes out like a bandit.

Then we went to go to Target but the line was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy to long.. so we went to K-Mart and got some more movies for $3... Queen size comforters for $10.. some Jammies for $15 for 2 pair.... Then we headed back home just in time for me to change clothes and head to work.. WHEW am I tired!!!!!
I didn't get to go shopping. I was too busy addressing invitations like a maniac because I was determined to mail them off today! Glad to hear about the deals some of you girls got though. Good job!

Went to Circuit City... I won't ever do THAT again!! Went at 2:30am and after we got in we got in line (my friend and I) to go get her monitor, got it but continued to stay to get a $12.99 notebook backpack.. which was sold out cuz they didn't let me just get it.. I got 2 packs od 50 pack DVD-Rs for $3.99 each. Also got 2 PS2 games for $10 each. THAN to leave we stood in line for ALMOST 4 hours!!!!! Never going there again there was no excuse for that. We went to best buy last year, the line went all the way around the store, and was only in line for 15 mins!! Sean and his friend ended up at Wal-Mart. He got a $25 printer/scanner/copier (which is awesome), V for Vendetta (his fav movie), a present for my sister I cannot reveal and I think thats it! So... hopefully next year will be different!!

Not really, I hid most of the day. I went out around 4ish to speak to the baker I want for the wedding and also did a couple small errands. That's it.

I went looking for a new laptop... Braved WalMart, Best Buy, Staples, and Target (for other things). Ordered on Dell.com. lol Surprisingly, NO lines at Wal Mart OR Target! (I got a Martha Stewart magazine and some cookies.)

DH went out; he stayed up all night :whoa: I was asleep ;)
He went to Target and Best Buy; he said Best Buy was so packed that he ended up putting back what he wanted and leaving. He got a couple new computer monitors at Target and a new Thumb Drive.
Oh, later Thursday night he went out to Garden Ridge and got a few more things for our Christmas tree :)
I bought a few things online; Old Navy has all their jeans on sale, so I got a couple pair for me and DH :whoohoo:

Didn't go out. Might look into the "Cyber Monday" deal thing I keep hearing about. Something about online stores running seasonal sales :)
Things were crazy here though! The mall opened at 1am and was giving some stuff away. People tried to riot at one point. Cops had to be down there. Tonight on the news they said some doors got broken in the rush and some folks got bruised up, crazy!

So it was all of you ladies that caused the traffic build up on the interstate. No wonder I could'nt get home at a decent time.
Black Friday=Bad Night for Truck Driving
But then again, I did sneak out early to work, for a few minutes to pick up a couple of gifts.
