When I first began many years ago my dad would go with me he would sit in the car with the newspaper or sit in the target cafe with the paper, then my husband went one year and he couldn't wait to come home being up by 4 he wanted to come home by 10 since he is up by 4 everyday. Now I go with my sister inlaw we drop my Dh off and go crazy shopping. I love to see the other people how crazy they get shopping. Last year there were 2 fights in Walmart and a cat fight Lolz meow . I go to get the good deals on DVD, clothes toys etc most of all the snow gloves from jcpenny. I Remeber in the early 90's Montgomery wards gave out Rudolph ornaments and watches I have them still they go on my tree every year. I have a 13 yr old and a 3 year old to shop for big age difference but it is fun also great nieces and nephews and godchildren but I say I must have my Starbucks to keep me going .
