1. last year I did a lot of my black friday shopping online on thanksgiving day or waited until early hours when websites were launching sales. Circuit city had the best sale for what I was looking for and also had all the stuff I wanted to get at best buy same price or less without the hassle of standing in line. This year doesn't look well considering they're now with tiger direct and best buy lines on blackfriday are always around the store,literally. 2.plan ahead. Be ahead of the game by checking online websites for all the sales and then organize yourself. I try to sort out what I need to get and then from there on whats more important/feasible. There's always smaller deals you want to get but in the overall picture you need to look at the big picture. the amount your saving vs the stress. Also, if you can cross off a few places in one shopping center/mall that helps. I usually take my mother or SO with me and split duties. 3.? Black friday is completely about the deals. sure if something is the same price throwing in breakfast or something else in nice but wouldn't change the order I plan to do my shopping. Saying that for years JCPenney has been a staple on my Black Friday list for their disney snowglabes.My mom, aunts, grandma and myself each have a set going back to god knows when.P.S. The reusable bag as a prize is pretty crafty when thinking about the topic:)

I don't regret the purchase just went overboard with some blank dvd's on sale at circuit city online w/free shipping. Needless to say won't need any of those for at least another year and thats including giving a pair of spindles to my brother. I did buy a bluetooth car speaker thing that has not been used as of yet, but I got that as a steal.

that explains the email i receive a few days ago with offer then a mistake email later :) might be worth checking out store sunday anyhow although I must say I do hate Vista

wondering if anyone's familiar with baby clothing websites where I can view/purchase a cut bringing baby home from hospital outfit for boys. very disappinted in babiesrus which I would have thought carried everything. Couldn't even find a basic little set with hat and booties for boys that wasn't preemie.

sears is ridiculous. be forewarned when using the pick up at store that a good more than half of the time you place order you will get a confirmation that item is ready to be picked up before receiving another that the item is unavialble at store. this just happened to me today. but also happened at christmas with a piece of jewellery that i drove to further store to collect alreday having asked for some stuff to be picked up at local store and when i got to local store the same piece of jewellery was sitting in display. Any codes for free shipping?

the link at childrens place shows "undefined" as web use but I'm guessing that's not going to work. I found another 15% off code online but haven't tried it. SA249 Also, not sure if you have a store near you but I stopped by one on Friday and they had discounted items an extra 50% off. Bought my soon to be nephew some cute stuff

was at target(miami) yesterday and found pretty much nothing in "easter" section. just had a bunch of egg coloring/decorating kits and grass along with an and full of reese's eggs and the cadbury ones. Everything was 75% off so I went looking around the toy department found one of those geo trac thomas things, a sesame street tiny figure, a few tiny easter themed etch a sketch and a larger christmas one as well as some molding type pixos stuff but figured wouldn't really be of any use to me. I've never found the MM's but I started looking recently. My best find at taget so far has got to be the whole stash of winnie the pooh my first christmas stuff at 90%. We bought soft maybe chenille blankets and dress/pant sets in the gift boxes and little leather shoes plus a set of bibs that was some outrageous price. My sister in law is due late july so I just bought a little of everything and when I got home I was taking everything out of the car and my mother quickly moved everything to my room so my father wouldn't have a fit as she thought I'd spent too much. We all had a huge laugh at the receipt :)
