I will work today and Wednesday. But my 6 yo son will have ear surgery tomorrow. Otherwise I would have to work tomorrow.

The leapster in my ad is $25. It is listed on the Blitz ad on page 5. You do know that ther is more than just the first page, right?

I went to BB today and spoke to a rep about the $149 computer. He said that normally on mail in rebates, the limit would be one per household. But with it being instant savings with no rebate, there would not be a limit per household. Now if that is only true BF morning. He also said that my store would start handing out tickets at around 3 am. My store had 45 of these units.

It is there loss. I am sure they would do the same if they really wanted something and did a little homework about Black Friday.

I talked with my local WM. They carry eMachines. They will price match the BB price if it is the same model. I just want to do a little homework before BF. Maybe if they do carry this brand, everyone else will be fighting over the WM computer sales. Then I can sneak by and grab this one. Oh I hope sooo!

My local Target is saying they will not open until 7 am. Is this the same for others?

Does anyone know the model number of this computer? I can't download the scan. Would this particular computer be okay to do school papers and web browsing on for a 12 yo? My son has my old Gateway (8 years old) and it is soooo slow.

I just spoke to my local Target. They confirmed that they would price "adjust" within 14 days. I specifically asked if they would price adjust an item bought this weekend to the BF ad. She said yes. So I am off to Target.

What part of West Texas would that be. That is my area. It would be my luck to be higher than first thought. Oh Well!

I was in KB today. The clerk would not let me see the ad, but she said they will not have the GB SP or other systems on sale this year. All of the games would be on sale. I am not sure if this is for all stores. She said our mall store was changed to a "value" store. She looked through the ad to make sure that the game systems were not in it. I would have grabbed and ran but she backed up to the wall when she was looking at it.

I believe they start at 5 a.m. this year.

Exactly!!! If I do lay down for a nap, I take my ads and list with me. Then I end up making sure that I didn't miss anything.

I know it is off the subject, but my Alberston's recently had the new All Concentrate free after an instant rebate. I made several trips in the store just for free detergent.

Ditto kristib. I have 3 boys though. I too like the idea of them being attached to the seat. I am leaning towards individual DVD players to stop the fighting before it begins. But then one will probably have the DVD the others want. If they do make a case for the portable ones that will attach to the seats, I think I may go that way. Decisions!

With the www. I get the 7th. Without the www, I get the 8th. Which seems to be opposite than everyone else.

I use mostly paper. I buy a different pattern for each of my boys, gifts leaving the house, and DH. The only paper that has Santa on it, are the gifts from Santa. By using different patterns for my boys, I don't have to put their names on the gifts. That way there isn't any snooping because they don't know whose is whose. lol

Most ads that are in the paper Sunday before BF will end on Wednesday. Wal-mart usually mails their ads our at the first of BF week. I would definately get the Turkey day paper and Wednesday paper. Our papers go fast, so I would get their first thing Turkey day unless you have it delivered. I have also known of people to take papers out of others yards just because they could not find in at the news stands.

My local WalMart has signs posted on all entrances that says they will be open Thanksgiving Day and the 25th 24 hours.

My husband actually get two bonues. One is from the company he works for. It is based on the safety record for his crew and other things. It should be nice. The one of the oil companies he is contracted to usually gives him a gift card to WalMart. It too is based on safety. I work for my dad and merchandise on the side. My dad just keeps telling me I will be surprised by my bonus this year. We sell trailers and have had a good year. So I hope he is good to me. But I do also get a $20 bonus from one of the merchandising companies I work for. And I only do work for them about 3 days a month. I didn't realized that so many companies did not do bonuses. I feel very fortunate now. No more complaining from me.

I know. I shouldn't be so unappreciative.

I love BF. This is my time. My mom and I go every year. This year my sister will be going for her first BF. I have already given her the "ground" rules. I told her that there would not be any complaining, walking slow, etc. I can't wait.

Thanksgiving bonuses. That way we would have our Christmas money when we go BF shopping. That would be perfect.

I look for any excuse to buy a new purse. I am officially a purseaholic. lol I buy the small appliances each year at WalMart that are less than $5. These make good inexpensive gifts. Plus I usually can use one of them.

I too have a Super WalMart within 5 miles and everthing else is 30 miles away. I don't even stop at my local WalMart. I just go straight to my neighboring town. I don't want to miss the sales at the other stores. Plus my WalMart will not PM the Blitz items. They have different management this year, but I don't want to chance it. I may send my DH to the local WalMart to make sure that we get the GB SP though.

My mom suggested this too. We are considering it. She too has Marriot Rewards, so it would be free. I am not sure how my DH would feel about this though. He thinks I am crazy anyway. lol
