at the walmart i went to in nj everyone rushed the door (around all of us who had been there for hours)...i heard they closed down another wm nearby & were considering doing so at the wm my neighbor went to

yeah i like twisted my foot at wm pushing thru the crowd (& being pushed) mom2thegirls: 90 mins in 0 degree (w/ wind chill) temp

wow, my first bf was when i was 17 too..that must be the official age lol

even with the sinus infection im developing, i got: walmart (got there at 3:30am, was maybe the 40th or 50th on line) care bear $5 little people zoo $10 little people noah's ark $10 coffeemaker $4 scooby doo gba $8 NOW 20 $8 (pm'ed from bb) coldplay x&y $7 (pm'ed from cc) billy madison, happy gilmore, goldmember, pleasantville $3.44 anchorman $5 revlon lip gloss $0.99 (pm'ed from walgreens) staples (got there 5 mins before opening, in & out in 10) 512mb sd memory card thingie (i dunno it's for my dad) $15 AR surge protector free AR toys r us (met my cousin around 6:30, it was almost dead) gba 2/$15 spy stuff $13 kohls (got in around 6:40, huuuuuge line but it moved fast) fairytopia barbie $10 little transformers thing $9 spy glasses $9 polly pocket set $9 old navy (got in 15 mins after opening, worst line of the day!) mens fleece $10 boys polos 2/$10 mens long sleeve shirt $10 velour sweatpants & sweatjacket $10 each & got a coupon for $10 off $50!! sears digital tire gauge $10 all before 9am!!! :gd_pineap :gd_pineap plus my samsung dvdr from bb.com that will be $70 AR if i calculated how much i saved i think my head would explode

just checked & i didnt see anything about doorbusters, only '2 day sale'

im in north jersey & despite the cold & wind im still going to walmart at 3...just bundling up i guess

from the way things on the boards seem to be going, it sounds like most people are going to either walmart or bb, so tru shouldnt be that bad

i dunno, i showed it to my cousin's son, who asked for a robosapien, & he said the one in the ad was something different (i was suspicious myself) - can anyone confirm?

little people noah's ark & zoo are on there for 10, but, gulp, almost 7 for shipping? hahahaha no way

thank you sooooo much, i checked it out & ordered it right away, & i'll end up paying only $88 even after tax & shipping!! :gd_purple

My friend is new to BF & lives in SC. He said he's going to Florence to shop, but he has no idea what the crowds will be like. Any veteran BF'ers from the area know how early he'll have to get there for one of the coveted laptops from either BB or CC? I have no way to judge this for him bc I live nowhere near & with quite a different population density & store distribution, so help would be appreciated.

BB has a decent-looking one for $70, but only after $50 rebate

walmart, dangit! i guess they think we live too far away bc we never get anything from them, but i swear the closest walmart is at least 5 miles closer than the nearest lowes or compusa :mad:

shout about music maybe? there have been commercials lately for that, & i believe there is also a name that tune game, both utilize the dvd player your daughter should be able to upload cds onto the computer then transfer them to an mp3 player...i use itunes but several programs will do it automatically

definitely, first i was going to go for 4, then pushed it back to 3:30, now im wondering if even 3 will be early enough...

i think it's awesome, im going to walmart anyway & more competition can only get me even better deals!

no kids of my own, but getting lots for my cousins' kids, who want: 11 yo boy: gamecube turbo-something car (the one that can go in the water too) call of duty 2 for psp the new wwe game for psp laser tag set 5 yo boy: nintendo ds one of those nintendogs games legos robosapien (dont ask me) 9 yo girl: fairytopia barbie soccer cleats legos gba games

are you insane? the wind chill was 25 at noon! just wishful thinking?

i dont think it's possible for any stretch of 22 to be more jam-packed with stores than the union-springfield area is, not to mention bluestar & watchung commons farther down

anyone kinda have the inkling to just skip thanksgiving & go right to bf?

i just got free shipping today (wednesday) on the trivial pursuit game unfortunately i didnt see the coupon codes till just now, but with all im saving i dont even care, how crazy is that :gd_orange

that's absolutely untrue...ive had several items from old navy i've been wearing for 5 or 6 years, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the quality of 99% of what they make (2 of my gap tank tops, on the other hand, had threads coming out of them everywhere after a few months)

my thoughts exactly

even if stores dont have enough of the big doorbusters, ive found that they almost always have plenty of the dvds, cds, & other small items, so i never come home empty-handed

cash, except at kohls where i always use my kohls card when they have promotions tied to it
