Brother hit Office Max while I was at Best Buy and mom/sister went to Kohl's.

At least, that's what I can remember :groovin:

-Mark-

I also shopped online at CompUSA and Office Max.

I also went to CVS. Got a portable DVD player there too. :D

For me, Sears, KMart, Wal-Mart, and Target...probably same or even more this year...come on BF!!! come on!! Lol

Best Buy, Circuit City, and Office Max. I went to others stores, but I didn't purchase anything.

....Did not go out on Black Friday last year?? Blasphemers!!!


We hit a ton, the big in one in our area not on there is Brandsmart

I believe I went to Sears first, then Radio Shack, then Target, and then I was done. It was the first year I didn't hit TRU at all...at least I don't think I did. I think that none of the sale stuff was anything I wanted to get my kids. I'd have to search for my old 2004 posts to be sure though.

I went to Target first, then Walmart. Then I hit our mall, JC penney and Sears. Then Kmart was last because I got our Christmas tree there for only 30$ and it was one of the ones that is almost 7 ft tall. Wasn't really impressed with the deals last year but I'm hoping this year will be better.

Sadly, I did not get to go last year. My wife and sister-in-law broke down at a toll-plaza in South Chicago, and I had to head down there to pick them up and get them here. Then, I went down again later to fix the van, and we drove it back home. What a day.

This is going to be me this year. I have to work on Thanksgiving night and the night of BF so i wont be able to go shopping. I am going to look a the sales and my Sister has said she will go for me if there is any have to haves i see.

Last Year I hit Sears first for the 10 gift cards some tools and a CD player, Then I went to Walmart for Spider man web blaster( price match from Target ad) the 10 cordless drill, and a few other things I can't remember, Then I hit CVS for the 1.99 batteries. Hope they have that again this year. I hit Old Navy too but nothing exciting there. Then on the way home I hit another Walmart for some other things that the first Walmart didn't have.

I went to Walmart and then ToysRUs and then met up with hubby at Super Target and followed up back at Sears (his 1st stop) to pick up a TV. He also went to Best Buy and I think another computer type store..can't remember now?!. LOL Then we went to Kmart and headed to lunch!

Weird one...I do all of my shopping and wrapping on BF and happened to have difficulty gettting a paper with all the ads...so I left the house super early on BF and stopped at Walgreens to pick up an extra newspaper. They had tons of wrapping paper etc on sale. It was a great surprise and is now a part of BF tradition. (did I mention it was empty?)

Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and Circuit City.

Also EBGames, Ace Hardware, and Walgreens.

Really didn't mean to go to Best Buy or EB Games-- thought I was going to be able to price match all the PS2 and Game Cube games DH wanted at Walmart, but that was a total bust. So ended up making the rounds.

Oh, and the next day went to TRU for some GameBoy games that were still on sale.

SEARS! SEARS! SEARS! Got my $10 GC last year, used it on a 19"TV for mygirls, paid ~60 with warranty and all! It was great! the nwe went to Kmart for the excersising care bears...which are still in the box this year. :(

Last year after Christmas I got enought wrapping paper to wrap for the next two years! It was .29 a roll at CVS last year. I cleaned them out. Now every time I go into the closet rolls of wrap are hitting on the head! LOL

I dropped my teenaged son off at Target and was on line at Walmart by 3AM. He enjoyed the antics of the people on line. I don't remember anything we purchased except the great deal on the game cubes. I got about 10 of those to share with co-workers who couldn't make it to the sales. Then we went to the BX to do pricematches on the things that had sold out elsewhere and to get the $20 Coby DVD Players. :trampolin:

My mom, sister, and I are going to spread out again this year to make sure we all get what we want at the different stores and to save time. My sister will go to one store-I'll give her $ and my list what I want there, etc. She will do the same for me then my mom. Its great. We all then meet to give our purchases to each other and share experiences then do lunch.

Walmart was enough for me.

I couldn't go last year. I was just a few days from delivering my little girl and hubby didn't think it was such a great idea. :(

I always start at Kohls's for the 1/2 off fisher price and litlle tykes stuff (plus they open at 5) then to tru. next get in line at target, down to bath and body works. walmart, best buy big lots, kmart, meijer and then lunch. We are usually done by 12 or 1.

My favorite store on the Black Friday list would have to be Target! They had some great deals on tv show seasons on DVD last year.

My favorite store to hit is KB Toys. Super expensive all year long, but come BF they have a GREAT ad. I usually buy tons there.

WalMart, Sears, Radio Shack, JC Penny, Lowes

Went to WM first, but I missed some things I really wanted @<hidden> JC Penny and Sears. If their ads look good this year I will be going there first and just hope that WM doesn't run out of the toys that my kids will want.

Last year we started (as always) at WalMart. There's always one big thing and those $6 dollar boys jeans and the hoodies that makes WalMart worth it.
Then we went to Walgreens and another place that has good stuff here(freebies) Big Lots.(lol)

We always go to Kmart but not usually impressed with their ads.

PX first pricematch everything possible, then Walmart, Kmart and Target

JC Penny, KB-Toys, EB Games (Mall hit that first)

Walmart, Kmart and Circuit City

KB Toys, Toys R Us, Walmart, Target, and Kmart. These are my usual stores

I hit Kmart first ,,,,got some insulated men's shirts, then was off to Sears,,,can't remember what I purchased then it was Old Navy, Wal-Mart and Gap. I am can't wait for BF to get here!

I did the same thing last year Kohls first then in live at TRU before they opened

Wal MArt, Target, Circuit City, Sears, Michaels, JoAnns

Last year I started at the mall. Hit Target (to get the portable DVD player they had on sale), TRU, CVS (had to get the $5 coffee pot), Best Buy (walked in then out- that place was NUTS) then left for Kmart, Walmart and Big Lots. By the time I got home I can honestly say I was sick of shopping! Of course after all that, that is when hubby decided it would be a perfect time to decorate the outside of the house lol.

Last year I went to Wal-mart, Foleys, TRU, Radio Shack, Best Buy, KB Toys, Target, Kohls, Wal-greens, CVS, Bath and Body Works, Old Navy and a couple more places.. It was somewhat in that order. I left the house at 3 am and got home around 9 pm.

We hit Best Buy at Midnight and were the first people to arrive. We setup our tent and crawled inside while everyone else froze.

This is my 6th straight year. Went to Best Buy First Every Single Time!

I WANT THE BEST BUY AD!!! but it is one of the last ones to get released!

Wal-Mart & Target...those are the usuals.

Wal-Mart only takes us about 20mins and we are in and out.

Surprisingly, Target is always empty! It's a nice place to cool down :)

My sisters and I with my mom stood in line at Walmart, then Target, then Kohls, then Sears, then Michaels. Then home to sleep. I want to get the Light Sabers for my nephews. Oh my sister will love me for that.

I went to walmart and kmart, no target in my town..

Well I physically went to WalMart and Radio Shack. But I also purchased online at TRU and Sears. Also hit Kmart on Thanksgiving.

I went to several different stores and wanted to pass out when the day was over!!!!!!!!!

I went to Target first, then Walmart. Then I hit our mall, JC penney and Sears. Then Kmart was last because I got our Christmas tree there for only 30$ and it was one of the ones that is almost 7 ft tall. Wasn't really impressed with the deals last year but I'm hoping this year will be better.


what time did you reach JC penny?what would be the best time to avoid rushes...

I went to Walmart, Target, Circuit City, Marshalls, The Mall

First was of course Walmart for their $10 Care Bears, then to Best Buy for Halo and dvds, and last was Walgreens where they had a lot of FAR items.:D

First BF. Excited and ready to go

Last bf, I went to the px first, second to Macy's and thirdly to Penney's. I would do it in that order again, but we don't have a Penny's.

We only went to WM last year, because all I really wanted to get was the $10Care Bears, because I collect them.

Walmart was enough for me... went for the digital camera, got it and went home. I wasnt feeling well either, so i was done.
