I would say if each of you own an iPod; fill it with Christmas music!! If not then make a CD with a Christmas mix to listen to in the car in between stops. There is nothing like kicking off the holiday shopping season and thus Christmas with the melody of its tunes.
I have been doing BF for at least the last five years and have been hearing about it for as long as I can remember. I'd like to know how you feel BF has changed over the years.
I'll start to say that BF has started earlier over the last two years with the midnight madness sales and such. I worked retail about 4 years ago and I would've went crazy if my manager said that we're going to open at midnight BF
I will be in the Washington, DC, but since there are no real malls or shopping centers here, I make use of the entire beltway. I go to Northern Virginia in the morning and then head into Maryland in the afternoon
