View Full Version : How long are you out on BF? cleverbffool 9-10-2006, 4:04 PM When do you usually return from all the stores? I usually get home around 12:30-1:00pm. ~*~Jess~*~ cherry33778 9-10-2006, 4:32 PM Usually from 11 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. But this year I will get out at about 8 p.m. and camp out at BB or CC, where ever there is a cheap computer. bugsette 9-10-2006, 4:37 PM ususally leave my house around 4:30 and get home around noon gisellerol 9-10-2006, 4:53 PM i usually get home around 2pm Gporter34 9-10-2006, 5:00 PM Usually around noon. Rebirth 9-10-2006, 5:15 PM By 11am. bayhaysay 9-10-2006, 5:18 PM We usually leave out around 4 am-ish and are home by 5-6 pm-ish. StephanieD 9-10-2006, 5:38 PM I usually don't get home until around 3PM. My husband and I are usually done shopping way before then, but we actually like being out among the hustle and bustle. We tend to make a day of it. We hit the stores that have what we need as early as possible and then we eat breakfast. For the rest of the day, we spend time window shopping at the mall and other stores that we didn't go to earlier. We'll then go get something to eat before heading home. We basically just stay out until we're tired. LOL codeblue 9-10-2006, 6:13 PM Usually until around noon. We leave around 4:30 hit all the stores for doorbusters. Then track back for general shopping. All stores are within a 5 mile radius so it isn't difficult to do this. Booterbunz 9-10-2006, 6:24 PM I usually get home around lunch time. Aaron 9-10-2006, 6:36 PM If I go out, I'm only out for a few hours and then back to bed. huseboy 9-10-2006, 6:39 PM Left at around 11pm and home by 9-10am last year, will be leaving earlier this year if need be. :) Melissa 9-10-2006, 6:53 PM Between 11:00am - 12:00pm. Cheri0113 9-10-2006, 7:23 PM we leave at about 3:30am and get in line at the store who has the most items that we need. We get home around 3pm or so. love2beurwifey 9-10-2006, 8:23 PM I leave at about 4 am but it depends on where I go shopping at. mmm40 9-10-2006, 8:27 PM Good heavens! Weekly grocery shopping makes me tired. blakes_mommy 9-10-2006, 8:55 PM Usually till about 2pm. My feet hurt and I am broke! christmasangel 9-10-2006, 10:07 PM We leave around 3 or 4 depending on which stores we want to hit first and how good of a deal there is. We are normally home by 2 or so. Tracy72 9-10-2006, 10:43 PM we leave here at 5 am then home by atleast 1pm...hope to be anyway...lol ms_mckenna 9-10-2006, 10:52 PM I think we get out at about 2-3 depending on how I feel... some years I just can't sit and wait at the house lol. We get home at earliest 12 but usually by around 3-4 I have to go home because I am too tired. fun_4_u_nme 9-10-2006, 10:54 PM normally it's all over by noon for me.. elena_398 9-11-2006, 11:08 AM Im in line by midnight-1am every year and don't come home till noon or so. Last year I made it home a tad early as Walmart priced matched my items at other stores so I was home by 10:30am or so brynnfromtheblock 9-11-2006, 11:14 AM Last year we were out by 9pm the night before and returned about 1 or 2pm the next day. (got my kids one of those 148 dollar desktops from BB) SuperMommy 9-11-2006, 12:35 PM I usually get out around 3 am, and don't get home till around 5-6 pm. I try to get as much shopping done that day as I can.:runaway: AuntJamelle 9-11-2006, 12:41 PM We average about 4 hours, no more than 6, tops. We are typically home by about 11AM. We always stop for breakfast somewhere in the middle of going from store to store, otherwise we would be home earlier. :yup: ajburlingame 9-11-2006, 2:54 PM My sister and I usually leave at approx. 4 a.m. and get home between 7 p.m (earliest so far) and midnight (could barely walk the next morning) darkkan 9-11-2006, 4:39 PM Mom and I are terrible. We stay gone all day, usually returning close to dark despite leaving at 4:30am or so. But we live 40-45 minutes from the nearest mall, so that isn't so bad if you consider the traffic that day. ChristmasShopping 9-11-2006, 4:52 PM Normally head out around midnight or 2 am depending on where I am heading. :cheesy: Normally make it home around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. I am normally done shopping by 11 am but end up going to lunch with shopping buddies and then to the mall to walk around and see all the "crazy" shoppers! :eyepoppin :eyepoppin :eyepoppin jeninpa 9-11-2006, 5:36 PM I only go to the 2 local stores so I am out of here at 4:30am or so and back by 9am,lol. Jen f1rstclass 9-11-2006, 8:14 PM This year probably get home around noon, since I have to go into work later that day at 4---oh well I will have had my fun!! vonnyb 9-11-2006, 9:59 PM I am home by 11:00 am and 12:00 noon able 9-11-2006, 10:16 PM im home by about 11 then back out with different people till 5ish momof2many 9-12-2006, 10:20 AM leave at midnight and home by 1-2pm AndreaInNC 9-12-2006, 11:56 AM last year our outlet mall opened at midnight on BF - so I hit there first. Banana Republic had 40% off the entire store - including clearnace. I think I left my house around 1am and returned around 10am. But I came home with my Christmas shopping completed! kfinto65 9-12-2006, 12:17 PM Leave at 3:30 AM and back home by 10:00 AM. Might leave earlier this year depending on the deals. reportermomof3 9-12-2006, 4:08 PM I go out around 2 or 3 a.m. and am usually back by 9 or 10 a.m. since my husband, who stays home with the kids on BF, has to get to work. This year I may come back a little later since my oldest child is now old enough to babysit. Talama 9-13-2006, 12:07 AM Well I never camp out, I get up at about 5 am and am home usually by 11 am. I get there just as or right after the store opens, I usually find everything I want -1 or 2 items. It helps that I never go after high tech stuff :) I really just go out for the excitement, so I don't need to camp out. I did that one year with my SIL, she was pushed and tripped getting into Walmart and me, the rookie, had to use my shopping cart to barricade her away from the stampede, LOL. But it was fun. Lots of interesting things happen in those lines, people get VERY testy when they haven't had their beauty sleep - including me, who speaks very little Spanish but somehow found enough to translate in rather colorful language the discontent of the early birds to a woman trying to cut the line pretending to speak no English. But probably my scary expression made her listen more than my Spanish. So another reason I don't camp out! ebony0421 9-13-2006, 12:47 AM After camping out all night, we usually don't get home until 3-4p.m. gingersunshine 9-13-2006, 12:57 AM leave the house around 2 am and return whenever the money runs out. usually around 3-4 pm. kdaven 9-13-2006, 8:42 AM I usually leave about 3/4 am and then come back home between 10/12am. My husband and kids are starving and start cooking then I'll go back out later to hang and pick up anything that "might" be left and I've rethought about. Vickis3js 9-13-2006, 10:54 AM Depends last year we left out house at 2am the year before we didn't leave till 5. The deals determine how soon or late we leave. We get back Sunday afternoon! LOL DH and I leave the kids with my parents after diner, we take a nap and then hit the stores around us. Then we pack the truck and head to Rehoboth Beach , DE and hit those outlets, then we stay in Ocean City, MD for their shoppers fest till Sunday. Its our favorite weekend of the year!! jellybean051901 9-14-2006, 4:52 AM Usually we are in line between 2 and 3am and come back between12 and 1pm Jamy36823 9-17-2006, 8:40 AM I usually leave here about 6 am and Im usually back by 9 or 10. BF isnt really HUGE around here.. If you get to the store around 5 theres usually only 1 or 2 people waiting. No one that camps outside all night! :shock: Gator Pam 9-17-2006, 9:03 AM In the past, I've only done Wal-Mart as that's the only store close to FIL's. This year I may just try online shopping, it depends on if there are items I feel I have to have in my hand on BF, or if I can take the chance on missing out on the item ith my slow connection. So, I usually leave FIL's for Wal-Mart at 4:00 AM, and generally am back by 9:00 AM. sherril 9-17-2006, 9:19 AM I normally wake up and am out the door no later than 4:30am We go to Walmart and Toys R Us then to breakfast and home so I am normally home by 9 or 10 am. It probably will be earlier this year since Walmart isnt doing their layaways any longer. I went yesterday and did dd's shopping. I will only have to get her a large gift and them I will be done. starshine 9-17-2006, 9:55 AM Last year I was out by 1:30 and back about 11 or so. Most of that is travel time since I live in the sticks! jskarp 9-17-2006, 1:30 PM We head out about 4 a.m. depending on where we are going first.....and are home sometime around 2 or 3 p.m. Sometimes we do lunch......if we aren't too tired :) JazzMama 9-20-2006, 4:13 PM It honestly depends on the ads. I am, almost always, out at the stores by no later than 4:15. Last year, I think I was home by 10:00. smangham 9-20-2006, 11:32 PM I was home last year around 1:00.:yup: mtallen 9-21-2006, 3:21 PM I get home around 5-6pm. :) Aaron 9-21-2006, 3:29 PM leave the house around 2 am and return whenever the money runs out. usually around 3-4 pm. wow, you're out for a long time! NeepNeep 9-21-2006, 3:46 PM We usually get home between noon - 2pm. When we leave depends on where we are going first. moemoe 9-21-2006, 4:20 PM My Mother and my three sisters and I all start at WalMart at 5:00am :gdmornincoffee: and then Mom goes home to watch the grandkids, :g_help: the 4 girls shop some more, :gdrunner: and then meet up with our Dad for lunch,:7beer: shop some more :gdrunner: and get to our respective homes usually between 8:30pm-9:00pm at which point we all go right to bed. :gdsleep3: We have been doing this for 40+ years and we love it!!! :gdinlove: trinasmom 9-22-2006, 12:22 PM We leave at 4 a.m. make a 2 hour drive in about and hour and 15 minutes. We return anywhere from 7p.m.-10p.m. Just depends on how much room is left in the van. Of course last year we though we were going to have to bring a UHaul home. LOL diecastbeatdown 9-22-2006, 4:51 PM last year compusa had a midnight madness sale on the eve of BF. so i got there at about 5pm thanksgiving night, was third in line. after i got my goods went right to the next store at about 1am and just waited in line until it opened at 7am. went to a couple more stores and ended up at home around 11am. i had a ton of loot and it was a lot of fun. mldepalma 9-22-2006, 5:27 PM I leave at 3:30am and I'm home by 11am (latest).

We are normally home by noon! tootsieroll23 9-25-2006, 4:28 PM We usually get home around noon. Go home take a nap and just for fun we go out again to see what is left. Bunniq 9-25-2006, 5:10 PM Out of the house by 4AM, last year over slept, but still got the everything I wanted except for the grill from Macys. (Got a raincheck for that one.) I was home at 8:45AM. This year the plan is to leave home by 4AM and head to either Kohls or WalMart, depending on the ads, and any price matching I may want to try. I try to stick to my shopping list so I am in and out. I usually get home around 9AM and that includes picking up breakfast. alimfp 9-25-2006, 6:04 PM In previous years, I'd get home around 11am-ish. With what DH and I want to do/get this year, I imagine we won't be back until noon or 1pm at least. sevirj 9-26-2006, 11:00 AM I usually go to a couple places to, so I'm home around noon. Last year, I only went to Wally World to get a couple things, and then I went home and back to bed :yawn: colelane2001 9-26-2006, 11:39 AM My friends and I make a day of it.

I believe last year i was done by around 9. Went and had a really nice breakfast with my father after that. This year my DH is home and not deployed, so i am guessing it will me much later. My DH could out shop any woman LOL!!! I took him and his BF to Kohls after they got back from Iraq and I swear we were in there for several hours. 1 is as bad as the other LOL!!!:cheesy: :D :cheesy: :groovin: :lmao: Tangogirl 10-6-2006, 12:14 PM My mom and I are DIE-HARD BF shoppers, so we start about 5am and finish about 6 or 7pm, but we have been out as late as 10:30 pm!!

We would feel cheated if we went in any earlier than 5pm for sure...... JCBeBe31 10-8-2006, 3:18 AM I arrive home from BF shopping after the last store closes lol. Typically, I shop with my mother from 6 am (I can't do the early sales because I don't function lol) until 2 or 3. Then from 430-5 until 11 I'm at the department store shopping with my cousin's wife for an enormous shopping list. :eek: carheel 10-8-2006, 9:15 AM last year me and my friends went out we left at 345 which she was suppose to pick me up at 315 and we got home about 1pm, but we did got to IHOP. |
