Now that it is less then 2 weeks away from the big day,I think I am actually almost done except for a few giftcards I need to buy on Friday. I usually am running around the week before Christmas but Im trying not to this year...So Im hoping I did not overlook anything and that Im almost done!!! Im also super excited about some of the gifts I got everyone on my list. The thing I am most excited to give is I scored a pair of meet and greet event tickets for Buddy Valastro ( The cake boss). My dh is a HUGE fan and he has no clue I bought them!! So how are you all doing on your lists? Almost done? What are you most excited about giving this year?

Here's Round 3 Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer Charlie Brown Christmas How The Grinch Stole Christmas Frosty The Snowman

My ss had their package delivered a few days ago..I hope they liked everything since they still havent posted yet...

I had 6 buttons given to me on bf and out of them 3 were winners and 3 losers. I won a 10 certificate and 2 5 dollar certificates...

Round Two! Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer Shrek the Halls Ruldoph and Frosty's Christmas in July Winnie The Poo and Christmas Too Frosty the Snowman How The Grinch Stole Christmas Charlie Brown Christmas Jack Frost

I need to revise my list and say I bought myself quite a few things on bf...I NEVER shop for myself but I found so many great deals so I guess I wanted a lot more then I thought...lol

I want to say a big thank you to my ss!! I am a total chocolateaholic ( lol) and my package was like one big yummy chocolate explosion. It had a HUGE box of rochers which is my all time favorite treat but I never buy for myself so I was sooooooo excited =).. It also had bags and bags full of other yummy choclates like hersheys bells, nuggets, and reeses. My package also included some yummy flavored hot chocolates and and a hersheys travel mug to go with it ( which I really needed) This was the PERFECT package for me so thanks again so much. The kids and I will be enjoying these treats all season long! I will try to post a picture later ( I always have a hard time posting pics) but we did open one bag of treats already =)

Ok, now that Im caught up on sleep and can actually think..lol, I will write what I can remember since I bought a bunch... Pre BF- Vampire diaries dvd coby 32 inch tv lorax, the lucky one, water for elephants dvds And Im sure other lightning deals that Im forgeting BF sales- kohls- luggage set, two pairs of boots, angry birds knex sets, and a few odds n ends jcp- pillows, juniors boots, pjs, assorted toys, and a few other little things Macys- (gifts for me) cheetah throw, pillow, and pjs(yay), harry london chocolates, slippers, wallet, a really nice michael kors tie for the hubby Justice- honestly just about everything in the store...I have two dds OBSESSED with that store so I just grabbed everything I thought they might want and will look through it all later ( I love that they are doing that extra 20 on top of the 40 on bf now) BBW- Again just about everything, I have 12 teachers/cocahes to buy for so I really stocked up here and bought a few vip bags as well =) tru- I cant believe Im saying this but all I bought there was 2 ds games and a angry bird plush pig! Same for Target all I bought was a yellow 8 dollar crock pot because I love the color =) bealls- some white hanes white tshirts and a cake holder walgreens- a few toys, an oil of olay exfoliater set, and a few decorations I switched up my plan around this year since the early openings and I refused to go out on Thanksgiving, and my bff went away this year so I shopped solo..but I went out at 4am and got home around 2pm and it went great and still got everything I wanted =)....Was a super fun year and I cant wait until next year and hopefully they wont be opening even earlier!

I just got the Coby too!!!!!!! YAY!

I just placed an order and it went through. So keep trying =)

Just got Vampire Diaries season 3 for 4.96!! ( 9.96 lightning deal and they applied the 5 off 25) SWEET!!!!!!!

How does the waitlist work?

I am pretty sure at this point that I am going to try to grab a few items online if the big stores have them, anything I do not get I will go to the stores in the afternoon just to see whats left. I will be doing a lot of amazon shopping as well. I am going to hit the mall probably around 3 am to go to bbw, vs, justice etc. I will hit jcp when they open at 6 and then hit the outlets.

I saw about 5 things I was looking for so I am excited about that ( especially the vampire diaries and big bang theory)...Only thing missing was Gossip girl, I didnt see it on sale in any of the ads this year =(

Thanks a bunch for mentioning this...one last thing off my list for bf =)

Still not sure on my timing. I plan on doing the big stores (target, walmart, kohls, tru) online and whatever I can score that I really want I will be thrilled if not I will be fine. So I am either going to hit midnight madness at the mall for (bbw , victoria secrets, disney store etc..) or sleep in until about 4 then hit the mall around 5, hit those stores, then after that go to the bigger stores ad see whats left. This is the first year Im completely lost..all of these early openings have me so annoyed I almost dont even want to go out at all.........but I love Black Friday too much =)

Does anyone know what time bbwopens at the malls? I know at the outlet it always opened at midnight but are all stores like this?

I have never shopped jcp before on black Friday, but I like their ad and opening time so I will be there this year =)

I am happy with all the ads so far..I feel like they all have a decent amount of deals and their standard things to expect. However, I feel that the tru was really bad. No hot toys are on there at all and the stuff that is on there is nothing I need. I do agree with previous post about the b1g1 for a dollar games is good so hopefully that is online. I have a handful of things I would pick up if I can get online but nothing I would stand out in those lines for. I hope the ad had other things that other people need though =)....Im just really glad I bought a lot of the toys already cause I found previous good deals!!!

I like the price on Brave dvd and ds game...But, I WANT that doosbuster Dyson..does anyone know if they ever do doorbusters online? There is no way we are waiting on line at Target for the doorbusters but would really love that vacum.....

My post office has an angel tree and everything is different on there, plus JCP does angel tree as well. I get names from there every year...You could try those.

Ive said it before...and I will say it again...I HATE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be missing all doorbusters this year because I will not and my hubby will not be out during Thanksgiving day. So, I am probably changing my whole game plan this year...If toys r us does a 5amish door buster I will start there and just hit the mall....
