I have been checking the boards like crazy this morning, just hoping there is a new ad posted. I am beginning to feel like a drug addict....lol. I need an ad!!!! I know you guys can't post until you get them, I just wish someone would have mercy on us and give us something...lol.

The Sookie Stackhouse Series. I love to read so I could list hundreds more. Thanks Half Price Books for giving us the first ad of the year!!!!!!

At this point any ad would be good....LOL. But I am one of the greedy ones, I am waiting for WM, TRU, Kmart, Target, Kohls, Walgreens, Big Lots, Michaels, Joannes, AC Moore, well all of them really...Lol

I did #4 I posted on my BF group on Cafemom, This is actually the 2nd post I have added the link, but I did a new one just in case the old one wouldn't be sufficient. http://www.cafemom.com/group/106310/forums/read/10018870/Ladies_A_great_resource_for_BF_shopping_GottaDeal_com

This is the most exiting thing I've heard in years. I am so ready to shop now. I guess I can throw my idea of getting any sleep on Thanksgiving night out the window....LOL I will be in line at TRU by 10 p.m.

I vow to actually go to be early on Thanksgiving so I can be up and rested at 2 a.m., unless Toys R Us is opening at midnight, then that plan goes out the window...LOL.

Last year, my friend and I were at our 24 hour Walmart waiting inside for 5 a.m. She waited by the electronics while I scoped out the other items on our list. This is one of the Super Walmarts with the grocery section on one side of the store and all general merchandise on the other side. The doors at the grocery part are the ones that are left unlocked all night, the others are locked for some reason. But I was waiting by a stack of toys by the locked door and saw a massive crowd of people waiting outside. I didn't understand why they didn't just go to the unlocked doors and come inside....lol. So I just watched as they looked at me and a few other people trying to figure out how we got inside. When the doors opened it was pure insanity. My friend and I got everything we came for and where headed out of the store at 5:14 a.m. Not sure how we managed that time.

Ours opened at 5 a.m. too. Thats why I didn't go. But if they open at 12 this year, I will definitely be there.

Finally, an ad!!!!!!!! I am so excited, even though I don't have one of these stores around, it's okay cause I know more ads are coming soon!!!

I check this site at least 5 times a day hoping to see an ad pop up. I don't care who the ad is for, I just want to see one.

I haven't been to the Town Center in about 10 years...lol. My mom sticks to Southridge now since they have grown so much over the years.

Michaels, ACMoore, and Dollar General have some stuff out too. I love it.

I sure hope so. It would definitely make things more interesting this year than last. I could really see some stores doing whatever they had to get customers in.

congrats winners!!!

Hey, I am originally from WV. Living in NC now. My mom and I used to go to Charleston on BF. Do you go to the Town Center? We used to go there and to South Ridge shopping center. I miss shopping in the Charleston area with my mom on BF. We actually lived 1 1/2 hours from there so we had to get up really really early to go.

Thanks for all the work that is put in to this site. It is awesome.

Winston Salem, NC

Michaels - 9/23

I agree. I love Michaels especially for Christmas crafts. I will definitely be going there on BF. I would also like to shop stores that are cooperative with this site.

I usually start at Walmart, then hit Target, Kohls, and anywhere else thats having a good sale. I go to Kmart on Thanksgiving day and will go back on BF if they have good deals that aren't available on thanksgiving. I always have to go to Big Lots. I try to stay away from the mall if at all possible, but if there is a sale that I must go to I will....lol

Yay!!!!!!! We're so close now I can smell it.

It would be awesome if we could team up! But we are a little too far away from each other. Have you ever been to Hanes Mall in Winston?

Yay another NC Tarheel!!!. I live in Winston-Salem. My hubby has some family in the Hickory area. I will have to wait and see the ads so I can decide what I am going to do. I may have to go to TRU and send my friend to Walmart with my list.
