can't wait to get mine and see their list so I can start planning and shopping !!

I have not received mine yet ! did they all get sent out today ?

Thanks !! just checked to make sure I was added ! Thanks for doing this Eve !!

love trying to score "the deal" but my favorite is spending the day with one of my bf ....seems like we always have some sort of "adventure" happen that creates memories for us !! never a dull moment that day !

I agree...anything that is a surprise is nice ! Last year was the first year I participated and even though getting a package was exciting a very nice I think I enjoyed buying and sending to my person more ! can't wait to get my name and start shopping !

the weekend after thanksgiving we put the tree up ...usually the day after black friday (so I have presents to wrap and put under the tree) lol !

just sent my info ! this was so much fun last year and I missed the summer one so I am excited that I got in on this one again !

1. guy in the black jacket and grey pants on the corner..."I am not here for the door buster just the bathroom so I will just sneak around this way to the front of the line and no one will notice." 2. guy giving the thumbs up "Dude your number one in line" 3. guy with hand on face "now what was I here for ?!"

I had ordered the step 2 party time kitchen set thurs. morning approx. 3:30am recieved a confirmation email stating that I would get another email when it had been shipped . fed ex showed up yesterday with the kitchen set in the afternoon and last night I got the email stating the product had been shipped ! lol so you may get your items before being notified !

this was the craziest Black Friday I ever have done !! Got the Step Two party time kitchen Thurs. morning approx. 3:30am . Went to Walmart about 8pm with my dd and a friend of hers with the intention of trying to get 2 of the 198.oo laptops for my grandkids could not find a line or anything marked for the ticket items so we started asking and no one knew anything. so we decided to just keep hanging around the approx. area that showed the line from the online map. someone went and got a manager and she told us that she would find out for us. She finally came and got us and took us to a spot that was roped off and said "this is where you will get your ticket . feel free send someone to get chairs for you if needed." A coworker of mine was wanting a laptop also so I called her and told her where we were at and she and her fiance showed up , him to stand in line and she was shopping other items. We had been in line about 1hr. and she comes back and says "they have another line up by the shoes with the laptop marked and there is several people in line" so we go up and ask what was going on . the lady there says "I don't know who told you it was back there but I will find out" After I described the lady she said "that is my manager let me find her" We were about number 17 and 18 by then. the manager shows back up and says "someone made a mistake and put the line here when it was not suppose to be. I had these 4 people (me, my daugters friend and the 2 women who were there when we got there). So she said "I don't care what number they are make sure you hold 4 laptops for them." But they had 50 laptops so we would get one regardless. They handed out tickets to us at approx. 11:30 but told us we could not leave the line at all except for one 15min. bathroom break. later the lady who was our "Warden" as we called her told us that she wasn't suppose to but if we had someone who could stand in our line with our ticket for us we could go to the restroom as needed . by this time my dd had to leave to go home because she had to work the next morning but we had my son, daughter-in-law , and coworker all out in the store. they came and sat for us when we needed to go to the restroom and got us some of the other items we wanted. My daughter-in-law actually became our whole lines gopher !! she was great someone would yell to her " I need the luggage" she would go get it for them, someone would say "we need movies" she went and got half a buggy full and would hold them up and say the title name and price and someone would claim it , she even took clothes sizes and went and got them for people in our line. alot of the people in our line got some of the 12pm items because of her !! plus our "Warden" would not say anything if we left grabbed something and came back !! it was great we had a good group and we all laughed joked and helped each other score on some of the other items. we did have to wait until 5am to get our laptops and I was tired by then but with the help of everyone I got 2 laptops, 10 of the 1.98movies, 10 towels ,some of the 5.00 packs of hotwheels and 2 pair of the 9.00 jeans. oh forgot they also brought us doughnut holes , energy drinks, powerbars, breakfast bars and even gum throughout the night to our line !! we all left there and went to breakfast and then home to unload our items . then one of my BFF's picked me up and we went to the mall . didn't get much there but it is our tradition to go so I wasn't letting me being tired or not getting much from there stop me !! we did not get home until about 4pm ! no sleep and wore out but it was a great family , friend experience that I really enjoyed . I also forgot to mention that this was my sons and my daughters friend first BF experience !!

got the step 2 party time kitchen for my grandaughter !! now SLEEP for a few more hours !

thanks !!! I really got to try to get a few hours of sleep ! long day tomorrow and then we are heading out tomorrow evening to start our crazy crowds, fighting traffic wonderful exciting BF !!

I am on eastern time ......the way I am understanding it is they are on PST time which will be my 3am or later !! guess I better try to get a couple hours of sleep and get back up at 3am !!

on walmart site they have a map up of the electronic 5am doorbusters !!

Got my tshirt I won today !!! Love it ,, Love it ,,, Love it !!! Gonna be sportin' it come BF !! thanks again for the great contest and Great site !!!

well I sure hope our local walmart knows the "rules" !! One of my friends went last year to get one of the laptops , she arrived at walmart around 11pm and got in line or what they thought was the line. she said somewhere around 2am an employee told them that they had to watch for a balloon to be released and then get to that balloon and line up to get their ticket for the laptop. no one knew where the balloon would be so when it was released everyone of course was running, shoving, pushing and some of the people who had been there for hours never got a ticket. they even had one fight and a man was arrestted ! My opinion that was just asking for a riot !! I am going to try to get a couple of the laptops this year but not sure if I can score them or not . probably depends on how they handle the tickets and lines ! hoping it is different than last year !! hoping I get my gottadeal shirt on time and thinking maybe I should wear a helmet and football pads !!

tooo funny !!!

congrats to all winners !!

I agree ......I hate going to Wal-Mart on BF but ...........guess where I will be ?!! I need two laptops so I will be spending all night in wal-mart that night to ensure I get them !! lol got a friend to go with me just in case they say one per person !! CAMP OUT IN WALMART !

won't let me open it either ~

made me think on this one !!

I agree this is great and very entertaining !

I think I may have lost my lap friend ......do you think I may be able to find it at 198 wal-way drive ?

I am also curious about the Netbook on sale ! trying to see what I can find out about it but if anyone has any info please share !! thinking about it for my two grandkids who are 7 & 8 .........they only play some online disney games and nickelodeon games but they do use Itunes since they both have Ipod touches . any advise as to if this would meet their needs ? thanks

I have gotten many wonderful gifts down through the years some expensive some not but last year my son who has his own family now went and had family christmas pictures done, framed them and wrapped them as gifts for the mothers and grandmothers. That was one of the best gifts I could have recieved !
