Me too! For that price, I cannot pass them up. They also make a nice little last minute gift if needed. Everybody loves those little mini choppers. I need a new one this year too. Andrea

This was almost 7 yrs ago - but Black Friday was my last day. So as soon as I finished, since I had agreed to work that day as a favor, my two wks was already over, they let me do my shopping and get my 10% off before I had to go hand in my card. But also, I am thinking it was the night before Thanksgiving, we got an extra 10% off. Andrea

Toys R Us had some on their green tag sale also. Green tag was normal price 14$, so you got half off that. Andrea

Because of the Kmart/Sears thing, does that mean we may not get Kmart either? Andrea

I have heard good reviews on it. There is an adapter you can buy for it, I believe, one for the vehicle, or one for your wall. I am actually waiting for the tv system one, not the handheld one. It is on the Walmart list - but I am hoping someone has a package deal or something (with a game) come out. Andrea

Wow - that is nice!

Thanks!

Does anyone else do this? I grabbed two DVD players one year, only wanted one, so I don't know why I grabbed two. But I did not get the Crockpot I wanted for my sister. I was standing in an aisle where a lady said, oh you got dvd players, I needed one, lucky you. She had like 3 of the crockpots in her cart, so I told her I would trade her a dvd player for a crockpot. She said yes, she had just grabbed the extra crockpot to keep as an extra gift. It worked out great for both of us! SO this year, I am wondering if I should grab extras of what I can get to, to use as trading leverage for what I want that I could not get to. Andrea

My Target was out of them, but they had the little raincheck things already on the shelf. Unfortunately I was not able to get them before Christmas, so many people had rainchecks that they were running back out the second Target got them. Andrea

I was just thinking about buying my youngest (7 wks old yesterday!) some of the Care Bears at Walmart to hold for her 1st birthday. Andrea

Yeah! Now I can show my husband I am not the only crazy one! Some men just don't understand the excitement of great deals. Andrea

I agree - that is a lot less games you have to buy over time as they will be able to share the games they do have. Andrea

Walmart for me! I want a V-smile, Walmart has already lowered their price to their BF ad price, so I am waiting to see if anybody else has it lower than that, than Walmart, here I come! Andrea

I agree, 4 hrs is plenty worth it to save 300 dollars. In fact, if I was saving that much money on something I really wanted, that might influence me to get there the day before! Andrea

White lights - flashing and non-flashing. I wrap it up in non-flashing lights, and then I place a strand of flashing, just enough to give it a really neat effect. Andrea

Happened to two people ahead of me in line to pick up last year, I was worried once I got up to the stand, but mine was there... Even though it took forever for them to get it out to me. Andrea

Yep - Hunter (the dog) will get a stuffed animal under the tree, and some treats in a stocking. Target (the cat) will get something, not sure yet because he is picky, under the tree, and some treats in a stocking. Hermit crabs get nothing, except a little garland decoration around their tank. Andrea

The zoo here started putting their lights up months ago for their big Zoo Lights thing, so I would say sure, go ahead!

The fast pace that day is wonderful, it goes by in a flash! But there are some customers that can really get to you if you let them... I think I would rather be there the day people are placing stuff on layaway then the day they pick it up. Andrea

We only have one here, and it is at a mall that is too far away for me. Actually it is not too far, but I pass a bunch of malls on the way there, making it seem far... Maybe I will make it there one of these days, sounds nice! Andrea

I know it is crazy! I haven't worked retail since 98, when I worked at Walmart. I put in my two wk notice a few wks before Thanksgiving because I found a new job. I hate to brag, but I was one of the fastest cashiers they had. They asked me to extend my notice to almost three wks, making my last day BF, because they needed me. I did, and deeply regretted it! I didn't mind the fast pace, it makes the day go by so quick, but some people are just plain mean that day! Andrea

How busy is Ace usually on BF? Andrea

I am getting so excited! Andrea

Husband thinks I am crazy because I headed to Walmart at 3 in the morning last year. My father in law waited for hours at the mall years ago when tickle me elmo first came out to get one for my son. Are there any all-nighters out there? Andrea

Now I don't know! I love Black Friday, but if my husband gets that day off, he wants to go to Vegas or Laughlin that weekend, leaving that morning! I am rooting for Laughlin if that happens, then he will be woken up at 12 in the morning to leave for Laughlin, I will drop him off, jump over the river, and head to Walmart in Bullhead City. But that seems kind of scary, braving BF in a store in which I don't have the layout memorized! Andrea
