  1. You guys make me want to drive around and count folks. But Best Buy is on the other side of town, and I really have no reason to be out driving tonight. Maybe something good will come up and I will have to leave and can do head counts.

    IF anyone is in line in CR they are getting cold and wet! lol I just might have to go out in the morning and do a head count.
  2. I bought my tom tom gps yesterday. They assured me they would price adjust if it was in fact in the black friday ad! I love how they can't confirm anything even though they know whats in it! lol
  3. Yeah, the TV is one of the big items I need this year for DD 13. I was really hoping to find a 19", but it doesn't look like that is happening and this price is a little more than I wanted to pay, but it is 32". Also looking at the hand-held camcorder. I think she will like that.

    My target had a 19" Magnavox on clearance for $110 the other day. You may want to check your store.

  4. The Tanger mall near us opens at midnight (that's just a minute after Thanksgiving truly ends). My teen daughter went with family friend's last year. She liked that everything at Aeropostale was 1/2 price but said the lines, crowds and craziness wasn't worth it (but, she's never gone with me/Santa at 4 am to stand outside cold, snowy Target, either). She bought just one shirt at Aeropostale. Nothing else! (Yes, she'll have to learn more about shopping for maximum benefit!)

    Which outlet did she go to? The one in Williamsburg? I'm thinking of going this year.

  5. Here is one I really like!

     

    Peppermint Patties

     

    3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk

    1 1/2 teaspoons peppermint extract

    4 cups confectioners' sugar

    3 cups semisweet chocolate chips

    2 teaspoons shortening

     

    In a large mixing bowl, combine condensed milk and peppermint extract. Beat in enough confectioners' sugar, a little at a time, to form a stiff dough that is no longer sticky. Form into 1 inch balls, then place on waxed paper and flatten with fingers to form patties. Let patties dry at room temperature two hours, turning once.

     

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate with shortening, stirring often. Remove from heat. Dip patties, one at a time, into chocolate by laying them on the tines of a fork and lowering the fork into the liquid. Let cool on waxed paper until set.

  6. 1. In your opinion, what store had the best Black Friday ad last year (2008) and why?

    Walmart- They had the most toys and they pricematched things from Target.

    2. What would be your #1 piece of advice to someone totally new to Black Friday?

    Take along a friend!

    3. Besides offering great deals, what else can a store do to get you to shop there on BF?

    Freebies as your walk in the door, door prize drawings.
