  1. Time for another t-shirt contest!

     

    To be eligible, just reply with answers to these 5 questions:

     

    1. Approximately how many years have you been shopping on Black Friday?

    2. Do you plan to spend more, less or the same amount of money during Black Friday week this year?

    3. Do you plan on shopping online during Black Friday week this year?

    4. How many people do you plan on shopping with on Black Friday this year?

    5. If you could make stores change one thing about Black Friday besides opening times, what would it be?

    1. Since 2001

    2. Probably about the same.

    3. Yes

    4. 7-8

    5. NO CARTS

  2. I usually go with a group of 7-8 people but we split up and meet later if we need to. If we go to Walmart or Target only one person gets a cart so the rest of us can run around the store like crazy to get what we need which is very helpful. We usually go to the outlets near our town and we always split up there. There are just too many stores.
  3. I really try to ignore them but I will admit I have a lot of times just called them out on it. I have also been known to get rude back. Usually they then back off or even at times apologize. I really just try to remember that people are stressed and Black Friday may be their only chance to get stuff for their kids, grandkids, etc. But you can only take so much.

  4. I'm going to use my Walmart Saving Catcher money. I may look into some of the others listed above! Always great to save money. I also buy most of my gift cards at Giant Eagle so I can get fuel perks! I also use the product charts that are done on here every year to find the best deals!
  5. I miss the early morning sales. There was something so exciting about getting up at 4 to be there at 5.

     

    Last year I waited in line at WM for an hour to get to the movie/video game area (our store sections them off by the milk) only to find by the time I got in there that only 1 of the 10 movies or games I wanted was there. It just started my night off all wrong!

  6. DD19 needs a new laptop for college and DS15 needs a 32 in tv. I'd like to get us all some beats and I'd like a laptop for myself if I can swing it. Of course they both want clothes and gift cards for Google play and Steam. I'm sure I'll pick up some movies and possibly a few games (PC) but we'll see. I'm so excited to get started!

     

    Oh and just today DS15 asked for a trampoline! Hope those go on sale too!

  7. I'm waiting for it to really take off and all the holiday talk to get started. I love the movie threads and the recipes and all that. Thanksgiving, Christmas has ALWAYS been my favorite time of the year.

     

    I'm also waiting for the call to go out for helpers lol.

    There was a thread by Brad asking for help on the main BF forum page. :)

  8. I bought my new phone and case at US Cellular. Paid $50 for the phone and $50 for the case. I got the LG G3 and so far I love this phone!

    I have to buy a couple things online this week but they will be my big buys. I need to buy a tablet and a graphics card. The ones that my kids want are around $200-$250.

  9. I found it odd that they chose that department since most put their movies in the produce section of all places!

    Our Walmart put the movies and games back by the dairy section. I stood in line for over an hour because they only let so many people in at a time. By the time I got in most of what I wanted was gone. :(

  10. I went to Walmart- got movies, scarves, earrings, and Rockin Elmo for my nephew. Then I went to Target and got a fuzzy blanket for my ds. Next we went to Tanger Outlet- on their website they had this game and I won 3 $10 gift certificates which made shopping a little easier there. While there I went to the Nike store and bought my DS a shirt. Went to Old Navy and got my DD a bunch of clothes (used my $30 in gift certificates) and got ME the most comfortable pair of sweatpants ever. :). Next we went to Kohls and I got a cute pair of boots.

    Then what turned out to be the BEST place of the night we went to Michael's. I bought a wreath, ribbons, lights and paper. Then I came home and decorated the wreath. The best stuff I bought all night. :)

  11. Do you have any tips for getting the online deals at Walmart? My son is interested in the PS4 bundle deal, the ad just says available all day on Thursday but doesn't state a time.

    Make sure you find the item and automatically check out. Do not shop after that! Last year I tried to get the Xbox 360 for my son and I put it in my 'cart' and went and picked up the rest of what I wanted. When I went to check out it said they had to remove the Xbox because they were out of stock! It was just in stock like 7 minutes before. I felt like someone put their hand in my cart and stole it. I was able to physically go get it on Black Friday so it wasn't too big of a deal. Just something to think about when dealing with Walmart online.

    Good Luck! :)

  12. I went to Walmart tonight and they have already begun bringing things out into the aisles for Black Friday. It is all covered in plastic and typed notes stating that those item will not scan correctly until Thursday or Friday and the time of the sale. I have never seen the items out so early but we are forecast to possibly get a pretty good storm tomorrow. Another thing they have done-which I have not seen them do before- is they have taken most of the aisle items (regular non-sale stuff) and either took it in the back or put it into less used rows. They also pulled all of the clothes tight to the back of their section creating way more room in the aisles. It looks good now...just have to wait til Thursday evening and find out if it still does. :P
  13. Riven3d is right. They are the same on price. I checked on our chart site to be sure. You may want to check it out because some of them have a bundle with games. Though usually the games in the bundle are for older kids. http://www.blackfridaycharts.com. It's also a great place to check for games, controllers and other accessories you will need. Good luck I hope you find what your looking for!

     

    Merry Black Friday! :)
